Jo Purse has been excellent and extremely diligent with all concerns and issues with writing my will. I highly recommend her and the company as a whole as they also handled the sale of Mum's house.

Jo was professional from start to finish. She explained a lot of things to me as I was way out of my depth. Very knowledgeable, and helpful, nothing was too much trouble, including all my silly questions.
Would highly recommend.
