A Seamless Process

5

I was very happy with the service, the whole process was made easy for me at such a difficult time. The process was completed much quicker than I expected. All of the staff were easy to talk to and had a full understanding of my needs. Rachel Manby was extremely knowledgeable and professional, she was kind and understanding. She made the process easy for me, I didn't have to do anything, it was all done on my behalf in a very professional manner and competitive price.

Exceptional!

5

The time and care given by Rachel when myself and my partner needed to do our Wills was simply exceptional. Rachel took considerable time prior to the write up of the Wills to discuss what we wanted and to also give us options around elements that we had not considered. We had the draft Wills to check over and then once we were happy to do so we met and she went through the documents step by step ensuring that each of us were fully understanding of what had been put together. Once signed we had both a hard copy and an electronic copy of our Wills. Thank you so much Rachel and your team for giving us peace of mind.

From my first meeting with Rachel to discuss new will and LPA, I had complete confidence that the service I would receive would be first class and I wasn't wrong. Rachel is friendly, approachable and professional, she explained everything in detail and in an understandable way, no legal jargon. I was made aware of how my instructions were progressing at every step. I would use Tinsdills again if the need arises and would certainly recommend Tinsdills to family and friends.

Really helpful

Rachel and her team were so helpful to us in navigating probate of our mother's estate. Everything happened just as described. The only tiny issue I have is the £30 fee for transferring the funds from the estate - a small matter considering the whole piece of work.
