What a joy to deal with such an efficient company. Making a will was so smooth and quick and explained in lay man’s terms. I would strongly recommend this firm

Easy process for peace of mind

5

From the initial engagement right through to completion we found April King (especially Elise) very professional, friendly and efficient. We now have wills that protect 1/2 our property plus bloodline trusts. Definitely recommend.

Simplicity

We found the experience very straight forward throughout. Excellent friendly service and our solicitor explained everything in a way that made it easy to understand. We now have a comprehensive will with our assets protected for our family.

New replacement will’s

5

We required two mirrored wills to replace our old and outdated ones.
We had in our minds numerous concerns and questions and issues we did not understand.
We chose to go to a firm of solicitors but that in turn was a concern regarding the cost and if it would spiral!!
We had two video meetings in total, the first of which was a refreshing discussion with all our questions and misconceptions explained and enabled us to finalise how we wanted our will’s to be fulfilled. The second video call was to review the completed will’s, and they were first class.
As for the cost, there were no “spiralling costs, only a one off price which was very fare. All in all, one of our best decisions, a brilliant and very reassuring experience and outcome.

Wills, Trusts and bloodline inheritance very well explained

5

We wanted to have a will that protected the money we have from inheritance tax and care home fees. We also wanted to ensure our money went to our grandchildren when our daughters died.
Elise Rhodes clearly and simply explained what we could do and the limits of the will.
Elise contacted us again once we had the chance to read the draft wills to explain the legal language and to answer any questions we had.
We are now waiting for our redrafted wills with some small changes which we fully expect to sign.

An excellent and professional service..
We wanted to update our wills and April King were recommended to us. Paul understood our requirements, using examples to ensure everything was clear, and guided us through the process in professional manner. He was able to suggest the correct clauses to include in our wills and on receipt Elise walked us through each clause to ensure everything was understood. We feel confident that April King will be able to assist our loved ones further whenever needed. A well deserved 5 star rating. Thank you.
