Initially i saw Emma who took on the case and outlined what needed to be done. I assumed everything would be dealt with relating to Tom's will. The case was then transferred to Matthew who dealt with the details regarding the family trust. This caused a delay in concluding matters but thanks to Matthew's involvement and his frequent update's along with his attention to detail the matter was eventually finalised allowing me closure after a long time.
