New Wills and Trusts

We found Buchanans very helful, patient and friendly. They were happy to deal with complex instructions accompanying my will and came up with better solutions for looking after our three children, all of which have different health issues, than had occurred to us. When descibing the firm below, some of the boxes not ticked may well be true but I have not known Buchanans for long enough to answer either way.

A wonderful friendly and informal approach that immediately relaxes clients, from receptionist to solicitor. Utterly professional as to subject matter, and yet all done in an easy and understandable explanation mode that takes the tension out of legal matters.
Sadly, no tea and buttered scones offered.😊
