Ward of Court

After finally being able to approach a Solicitor regarding our mums affairs and her placement in a care home after her husband died. The whole sorry business suddenly became clear and understandable. We have felt with their support able to do the full court of protection process which became painless

Highly recommend and professional

I have been represented on 2 seperate occasions for family matters. The service I received was extremely professional and the daunting process was made very clear. Family matters can easily become messy, but things were always kept things as relevant as possible in order to make the process easier whilst also keeping costs down. I would highly recommend Russell & Russell.

Efficient and easy to use

We instructed Russell and Russell for mirror wills. The initial meeting was thorough and we received draft wills within a week and went in to sign the following week.

Good value for money and good service.

My Will and Testament

I approached Russell and Russell at their Atherton branch to ask to make out my Will & Testament. I was seen by Rebecca Chase, she made me feel comfortable and at ease. I was very happy with her services, she's a great asset to the company. Thanks for everything!
