Excellant Service

Andrea helped me with a basic will through St John's Hospice "will month".
From the first point of contact and throughout the process, I was given bespoke but clear advice on how to plan my will.
A lovely friendly office where you feel at ease to ask questions.
My will is now complete in super quick time.
Thank you to Andrea and the team for making a delicate subject easy.
And the fact there is a donation to St John's Hospice is the icing on the cake.
Would definitely use Andrea again for other legal matters in the future.
I was made to feel like a human not just a customer.
Than you Andrea.

I have no hesitation in recommending Rachel Taylor to do the conveyancing for your house sale. We have just sold my late mothers house and throughout the whole process she has been outstanding, always answering any queries and responding to emails quickly and clearly. Even when we encountered problems she did her very best to resolve things successfully to ensure the sale could proceed. Thank you.
