Solicitor at Thomson & Bancks

Kath Harris

Solicitor - Solicitor

SRA ID: 188702

I graduated with an Honours Degree in Law from Birmingham Polytechnic now the University of Central England in 1977 and was admitted as a solicitor in 1980. I have worked in Worcestershire all my life and re-joined Thomson & Bancks in March 2018. My principle areas of work are Wills and Lasting Powers of Attorney. I particularly enjoy working with elderly clients who always have an interesting tale to tell! I sometimes visit clients in hospital or at home if they are unable to come to one of our offices. Clients tell me I am very easy to talk to, sympathetic and professional in my approach.

My wife and I updated our wills with Thomson and Bancks and Kath Haris was the solicitor who acted for us in this regard. We found her straightforward and friendly to deal with. She considered carefully our wishes and advised on what she saw as the pros and cons of what we were seeking to express in the wills. Kath answered all of our questions that arose whilst discussing he terms of the wills and we consider that the whole matter was dealt with efficiently and professionally.

Revision of personal Wills and Lasting Powers of Attorney

5

From an initial discussion to explain existing options and trends in particular to understand our current personal requirements the procedure to provide us with refreshed up to date wills and Lasting Powers of Attorney was conducted professionally in a very relaxed, comfortable environment. Upon completion we were very happy with the whole process that had been adapted and the testaments that resulted.

I have recently lost my husband and had to do a new 'will'. I was not looking forward to it but it had to be done. Kath Harris was wonderful, very easy to talk to, very knowledgeable, answered all my concerns/questions, she made the whole process straightforward and I felt reassured.

Thomson & Bancks handled Lasting Powers of Attorney for myself and my husband.
The process was well explained, including the timeline and we received good advice.
We received a friendly and efficient service and were very satisfied.

Excellent Service

We have used Thomson & Bancks previously for a house sale and purchase and were really impressed with their efficiency. We therefore chose to use them again for our Wills. From our initial enquiry to our Wills being completed, the service was excellent. Kath Harris was easy to talk to and understood the outcome we were after. Highly recommend. We will definitely be using Thomson & Bancks again.
