SRA ID: 644433

I joined Maxwell Hodge in 2022, initially undertaking Residential Conveyancing work but I now deal with Lifetime Planning matters in our Formby Office. What I love most about my role is meeting with clients who come from various walks of life. I love to help people to plan for the future- whether that be through making or updating their Wills or helping them put Lasting Powers of Attorney in place. It is also a privilege to be able to help people who have suffered a bereavement and to hopefully make a very difficult time for them more manageable. To see how our Lifetime Planning Team can assist, you can visit our website, or you can arrange an appointment with me by contacting me by phone on 01704 872156.

I wanted to make a will and I was recommended by a friend to use Maxwell and Hodge Solicitors in Formby village.
The process was very straight forward as I made clear what I wanted and that’s what Ciara delivered for me.
Ciara was professional, knowledgeable, and informative. I am very happy with the service provided.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I recently had the pleasure of working with Ciara Furey on creating a joint will, and I couldn’t be more impressed with her professionalism and expertise. From the initial consultation to the final signing, Ciara was thorough, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable. She took the time to explain the process in detail, addressing all of my concerns with clarity and precision.

What stood out the most was her attention to detail and her ability to make what could have been a complex and overwhelming process feel straightforward and manageable. Ciara’s communication was top-notch throughout, ensuring I was informed every step of the way. She handled all aspects of our joint will with great care, and I now feel confident that everything is in place for the future.

I highly recommend Ciara Furey to anyone seeking expert legal advice and support. Her professionalism and dedication truly set her apart. Thank you, Ciara!

This was the first will I have had done and I must admit to being a bit apprehensive about the process, legal speak and all that but the manner in which I was dealt with soon put me at my ease, so well done to all concerned
