First Will !

Hitting 60 I decided it was time to get my first will set up. Nicola at Sills & Betteridge went through the process making it a straightforward task for both myself and my wife. The will was made quickly and all the legalese was explained fully by Nicola. It couldn’t have been made any better or simpler than it was. Altogether a good experience with a satisfactory outcome.

Very satisfied clients

This was our first time using Sills& Betteridge, the whole experience was excellent. From our first contact with reception at Lincoln through to the completion of conveyancing, everyone was friendly and efficient. The communication from Diane and Allison was prompt and we were informed continuously of progress. Very impressed and satisfied with the service we received, definitely our first choice in the future.

I would recommend Sills & Betteridge for Conveyancing. I just used their Thorne office to sell my parents rental property with the added complication of doing so with an LPA for my parents. Very supportive and informative. Will use them again when we sell the second rental. Many thanks to Emma and Thomas.
