Help with Wills, LPAs and administration after my Wife's death

5

I have always found McCarthy Webb extremely professional and helpful. The advice and guidance they have given me in respect to my LPAs and Will has been sound. Lately, after my wife past away they were very supportive and completed the Probate and changes to the Land Registry for my property.

I would thoroughly recommend McCarthy Webb, they are professional, efficient and a pleasure to deal with.
