Issue of New Wills

Our previous Wills has not been completed correctly and was causing us concern.

Anna swiftly put our minds at ease and addressed what needed to be done for new Wills and Health LPA.

We saw Anna O'Mara on our 47th Wedding Anniversary. The best wedding anniversary present we have ever had was seeing Anna and getting our new wills correctly in order. She is very efficient, knowledgeable and approachable. A credit to Sills and Betteridge.

Excellent Service

Madi made everything very easy for us to be able to do, my dad is 80 and she was fantastic with him, she did a home visit and nothing was too much trouble for her, she made sure he fully understood everything, every step of the way.

Renewal of wills/ wills in trust

My husband and I recently had our original wills renewed through the 'Free wills Month' offer. I was happy to have found a local solicitor which was partaking in the scheme.
We were given an appointment with Madi Earle who was great to deal with and gave us sound, clear advice on how the offer worked. We also wanted to address putting our wills in trust and Madi again went through every aspect of this and what it entailed, again we felt very comfortable with the advice given to us. Madi was always available if we had any questions and got back to us quickly on any issue.
We found her to be very friendly and professional and she made the process easy to understand throughout all the legal jargon.
We would not hesitate to recommend.

Fast and efficient

This is the first time I have used Sills and Betteridge for my conveyancing but second time conveyancing with Dawn Daly. Dawn completed the conveyancing very quickly on the property I purchased 5 years ago when working for another solicitor and was excellent completing to a tight deadline for me. When I came to sell the property, I found Dawn had move to another solicitor hence my switch to Sills and Betteridge and again I was very pleased with the fast efficient service. Will use again without hesitation.

Very friendly team Karen, Emma and Lynn. While mostly I have dealt with Emma the paralegal I cannot thank them enough for the past year with Child proceedings and divorce. Went above and beyond making sure around court they were there and safery measures in place. There were some learning curves that was dealt with swiftly and professionally as a team to rectify. Divorce not fully over yet but I cannot recommend this team enough. Thank you so much.
