New Will at home

5

I needed to revisit my old will which was home-made. I was advised by a relative that Hollam Solicitors would visit me at home and complete my new will without me needing to visit their office. As I am not very mobile this really suited me. In two visits my will was completed at what I regarded as a very fair cost. All the right questions and great advice was given very clearly.

Great Service

5

Following the death of my father, who did not leave a Will and had lots of paperwork with life policies and shares all over the place, Debbie helped in sorting out all the correspondence and raising a complaint with one Company to get closure on his Estate. An enormous amount of work was involved and certainly could not have got closure without Debbie’s assistance.

Wrote our basic wills under will aid

Everything was done as described,
There were name check fees to add but as this was for a suggested donation we were able to deduct the fee to make it what we had originally budgeted for in total.
Everything was explained and carried out smoothly.
