Exceptional and Professional Service
A rather complicated situation was handled sensitively and professionally. We were kept fully briefed, and given advice and the opportunity to handle parts of the process ourselves where appropriate. Wouldn't think twice about providing a strong recommendation.

Exceptional Probate Support from Nick at Petersfields LLP
I can’t recommend Nick enough. He made the entire probate process so much easier and stress free. From start to finish he was incredibly supportive, always available to answer any questions and guide me through every step. His professionalism and genuine care really stood out, and I always felt everything was in safe hands.

Exceptional Firm
I engaged Nick Timmings of Petersfields to deal with a probate/estate case which I found very confusing and daunting and the end result was one of the most outstanding services I have ever received in any field. Nick was an absolute pleasure to deal with throughout and kept me informed at every step and was absolutely outstanding and very reasonably priced.
I am very grateful for his assistance and feel like a huge burden has been lifted from me.

Exceptional service during a complex administration
As a small charity who were kindly left a gift in the will of one of our supporters, we were extremely impressed by the service provided by Petersfields LLP and in particular, by Nick Timmings, who were administering the deceased's Estate. Nick made prompt contact with us upon notification of the bequest and kept us informed of progress throughout what was a very complex and lengthy administration. He was professional, courteous and helpful at all times and we are grateful for his support which made the process so much easier to navigate.

Exceptional and professional support
Creating a will is never easy and very emotive topic with layers of complexity. We were guided and supported through each step with above and beyond guidance to ensure that we had a will that met all our needs and requirements.
The communication, empathy, quality of work was simply tremendous and can’t thank them more for all their help.

Wills for both of us
We recently got our Wills done for my partner and I. Not too complicated but had to have a trust created. Nick did it for us and despite me changing my mind several times he was absolutely fabulous. Nothing was too much trouble. We initially had a meeting on Zoom and then met up in a local office where Nick explained everything in great detail and ensured we were happy with everything before we signed. Would we recommend them?…most definitely….the price was right and despite changes etc did not change and he was easy to deal with. We now refer to him at home as ‘our solicitor’ as I know he will be there for us should we need help in the future.
