Easy review, pleasant efficient staff. The only difficulty I have experienced is with this questionnaire. To a simple soul like me a series of tick boxes should be all I need to fill in.

Amicus Law administered an estate where I was one of the executors and I found them to be very approachable from the outset. I was kept updated at all times and the matter was completed well within the time estimate they had given me. There were a number of complicated issues which arose during the administration of the estate, and these were fully and clearly explained to me, which enabled me to make the necessary decision without feeling I would be second guessed as to how I fulfilled my role as executor at a later date. I would highly recommend them if you would like a hassle free and reasonably priced reliable service.

We understand that dealing with an estate can be complex, so it’s great to know that our clear communication and support helped you feel confident in your role as executor. Your recommendation means a great deal to us, and we truly appreciate your kind words. If we can be of any further assistance in the future, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Above and beyond - Victoria Saunders was put in the hot seat at extremely short notice and what had taken nearly a month to complete previously from a different firm, she completed in less than 24hours - amazing, thank you.

Friendly, approachable, efficient and informative at every level. The stress of this minefield was completely taken off my shoulders and I can’t thank you all enough, particularly you Victoria. 🙏

A representative from AmicusLaw Solicitors responded to this review on 04 November, 2024:
