Making wills&LPAs

5

We were met by Zoe Nicholson and found her friendly, patient, and very professional. She talked us through the various processes regarding making wills and LPAs. She made sure that we understood the finer points of the LPAs before committing pen to paper.
We would be happy to recommend the firm in general and Zoe in particular.

Zoe was clear, knowledgeable, and approachable throughout, ensuring we understood every step. We would highly recommend her to anyone needing reliable and professional legal assistance.

Quickly sorted

It was time to update the wills for both myself and my wife. We originally thought of a simple will, but having heard of other options, we chose a more in depth document would better suit our needs and give better protection of our assets. Zoe guided us through the process and explain things at a level we could understand. Can not be faulted.

Excellent solicitors

5

Zoe Nicholson dealt with our wills and she was absolutely fantastic! It was a really daunting task for us but Zoe made it all so easy and was extremely helpful. I can honestly say that I wouldn't hesitate in recommending to friends and family and if ever needed in the future, Slee Blackwell would be my first choice for Solicitors!

Amendments to our two Wills, drafted previously by Slee Blackwell, Bar

5

Zoe Nicholson (Barnstaple) is amazing - friendly, polite and professional. She explained things clearly, answered my email queries quickly and everything was done & dusted in a timely manner. We would have no hesitation in dealing with Zoe again. Thank you Zoe.

(However, I would personally avoid using the Bideford branch due to a poor previous experience, but that is just my personal view)

I have no hesitation in recommending Zoe Nicholson after her great service recently.
Zoe took time to understand my will requirements then delivered an excellent and swift service all round.
