Probate

This review is for a different branch.

We were referred to Duncan Cook at Lodge Brothers Legal Services following a sudden and unexpected family bereavement and valued his calm, approachable, courteous and empathetic manner from the very start. Duncan was able to explain the process of probate simply and clearly and advise on what we might manage ourselves and what might require legal input. Duncan was both knowledgeable and professional and we particularly valued his advice and expertise when the named executor was unable to assume the role due to health reasons. Communication was excellent - Duncan kept us informed throughout and responded to all queries promptly. Fees were clear and fair. We would highly recommend Mr Cook for excellence of service.

Extremely good service. Professional advice and considerate caring attitude. Made a difficult time easier to cope with. No way could we have sorted out everything ourselves.
Would recommend highly.
