Wills and Lasting Power of Attorney all sorted

Very happy with the help and guidance that Owen White and Catlin and in particular Kate provided us in getting the wills and LPA’s sorted. Kate was very helpful from start to finish and took us carefully and helpfully through the whole process. Kate was very professional throughout the whole process and offered good guidance all the way. So pleased to get it all sorted and to have the peace of mind that all is in order. Thank you for all your help.

Knowledgeable and Efficient

Meeting to discuss my will arrangements was concise and clear. All points discussed were covered in the follow up summary letter and my new will was signed and registered within a week of that first meeting.

The Estate of my late brother-in-law

Back in 2013 I agreed to be the executor of my late brother-in-law's Will, not realising how difficult and complicated, and how much work was involved, not having any experience in these matters. Our solicitor Kate Pambos was there to help, she took over sorting out the various bank accounts, and utility bills that had to be paid. The was also a property to be sold, which was taken over by Henna Lynch, one of Kate's colleagues at OWC. There was also a property in Tenerife to be sold, Kate was not involved with this but gave me good advice on how to proceed. I am very impressed by the service provided to me by Kate and OWC and will certainly use them again should the need arise.

Disappointed

I was left disappointed by Owen White and Caitlin and would recommend anyone looking to use them to exercise some degree of caution.
Some of their team lack expertise and experience. Additionally, they seem to lack the knowledge I would expect of a law firm. Their attention to detail worried me throughout and had expected a lot more following a strong recommendation.

Excellent service

Contacted OWC to make new wills for my wife and myself. Appointment arranged within a couple of weeks with Kate Pambos. At the appointment we were impressed with her professionalism, depth of knowledge and found her very easy to get on with and approachable. She established our circumstances and wishes, at the same time highlighting matters that we had overlooked and suggesting options. The draft wills were sent to us for review and some changes made before we attended the office to sign the new documents. At each stage of the process it was easy to contact Kate or her secretary and our questions and queries were quickly and comprehensively answered.

A very professional all round experience from booking the appointment, through to initial meeting with lots of questions answered which gave us the clarity we needed. The drafting of documents was accurately done and we were able to finalise matters quickly, proficiently and completely. Well done to Kate Pambos and the team.
