Probate and Estate
When my mother died I contacted Sarah Babajee at Holley and Steer for help with probate. She has been sympathetic, professional and efficient at all stages. Unlike many legal people I have dealt with Sarah kept in regular contact and was easily reached. I have no hesitation in recommending her…. something I rarely do on these type of company reviews.

Amazing help with late father's estate
We used Sarah Babajee to fulfil our immediate legal requirements in dealing with a loved relative's estate. From the outset Sarah was both professional and patient; clearly outlining the process and timescales involved and also both realistic and honest in informing us of where there was work we could do and where there was work she was best suited to do. As a result, she efficiently wrapped up the estate, applied for probate and dealt with setting up the payment we needed to make to HMRC for inheritance tax. Sarah has been a pleasure to deal with; a kind voice on the phone and a pleasure to meet in person. She has made a difficult process, at a difficult time, straightforward and fair. If you need a probate specialist with both integrity and a great understanding of accounting for a loved one's estate we couldn't recommend Sarah more.

Absolutely outstanding. We were on a very tight deadline, Barbara and her team were fantastic. I can not recommend them enough. They were so patient, kind and professional throughout. Any questions we had they were always so quick to answer. Buying a house in such a short amount of time was challenging but Barbara did it. Thank you.

I used Thomas Murray from the Wills& Probate. My circumstances were particularly unusual. Thomas was so supportive I honestly do not know how I would or even if I would've got through it all. He even took time to speak with me out of office working hours and days. I highly recommend Thomas at Holley & Steer. I recently contacted Thomas to discuss my own Will and it was drawn up, signed and in my possession within 3 hours. Thank you Thomas for everything
