Estate Planning
Our solicitor, David, was easy to contact. At our first meeting, the staff were friendly and helpful and David was a pleasure to talk to as he quickly understood our situation. He efficiently collected all the information he needed and in subsequent online meetings and letters he produced good solutions and sound guidance on the way forward. We feel fortunate to have found a solicitor so good and so easy to deal with.
