Compassionate and Expert Guidance Through a Difficult Time

5

I chose Thomas Mansfield largely for their convenient local presence, which proved to be a real advantage. Being able to drop in paperwork in person, rather than relying solely on the postal system, gave me added peace of mind and ensured that important documents were delivered promptly and securely. This accessibility made the process feel more personal and efficient, and reinforced my confidence that matters were being handled with care.

I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the outstanding service provided by Beth Downes in handling my late father’s probate. From the very outset, Beth demonstrated exceptional professionalism and an in-depth understanding of the legal requirements involved. She ensured that every stage of the process was explained clearly, enabling me to make informed decisions with confidence.

What stood out most was Beth’s rare ability to combine professional expertise with genuine empathy. She was consistently approachable, patient, and understanding, recognising that this was not just a legal process but a deeply personal and emotional time for me and my family. Her calm and reassuring manner, paired with her thorough knowledge, provided comfort and clarity at a time when it was most needed.

Thanks to Beth’s dedication and attention to detail, the probate process was handled efficiently and with great care. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone requiring legal support, particularly where sensitivity and understanding are as important as technical skill.

I’d have no qualms in recommending Beth or using Thomas Mansfield in the future.

My sister and I were dealing with Beth Downes from the company in distribution of our late brother’s estate. We found Beth and her colleagues to be very accessible either by phone, email or video calls. We were kept up to date with everything and found her and her team to be courteous, professional and supportive and the process was explained to us throughout. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Beth and the team for a good outcome.
