Probate

Went with Devonalds for representation for a Grant of Probate. Was very impressed with how it was handled and they made it very straightforward. All prices were told beforehand, so no surprises after.

Experience with firm - making Wills

5

We can 100% say whilst dealing with this firm, we can only say everything we asked for was done. In fact, we changed our minds more than halfway through. There was no acrimony or bad feeling. They adjusted our requests and proceeded with this with no recriminations and in fact said and understood we had to do what was best for our family.
Very much recommended.

Confidence in my Solicitor

5

Your receptionist was very impressionable, easy to talk to and made me feel at ease. I met with the Solicitor and talked through everything and I was pleased that it was straightforward.
I then was out of the country for 6 weeks, everything was arranged before my absence and the Grant of Representation was through before I came home. A first class service.
