Iain Robson acted as our legal advisor (solicitor) with respect to Last Will & Testament of our late mother, Catherine Pennell. With no complicated terminology, Iain explained all legal matters concerning Mum's Will & Testament which allowed my sister and I to proceed accordingly, ultimately marketing Mum's house. Regular correspondence between Sarah Booth and ourselves was clear, thorough and uncomplicated, all queries were responded to in a timely manner. The whole process was handled professionally and with dignity towards Catherine (our Mum).
A representative from Milners responded to this review on 13 March, 2025:
Thank you for taking the time to leave this review, we are very pleased to see that Iain and Sarah supported you so well.
