Excellent Service

We have just completed our first will with Johnson Astills Solicitors and was assigned Kate Pettit as our solicitor, cannot thank Kate enough for making us feel at home straight away. From our introduction meeting where we talked though all our plans and wishes all the way to the end Kate was extremely informative, from translating all the legal jargon into plain English to explaining all the clauses which go to make up the will. In between face to face meetings Kate set up teams calls so that we could discuss everything as the documents were put together and any amendments made. Cannot recommend Kate and Johnson Astills highly enough.
Thank You very much
Mark & Rachel.

Probate and Will writing service

We would highly recommend Jane and her team, having had to use their services for probate twice within a year. Everything was explained at the outset, including the costings and was handled in a professional and efficient manner. We found them to be friendly and approachable and their kind help eased a very difficult time for us.

Amazing Service

I would like to share that the Will writing experience I had with Kirsty was exceptional.
From the moment I made contact, throughout the process and at the final completion Kirsty was clear, concise, helpful and presented all the options for me to take.
Kirsty presented me with the facts and let me make my own decision, as she said 'These are your statements of wishes and thats what we are here to help with'.
Kirsty explained thoroughly and covered all angles for me so that I was fully satisfied with my will.
I cannot say enough except you are in good hands and Kirsty will help you with your wishes. Very worth while and personal which all will's deserve.

Arranging Lasting Power of Attorneys for my husband and myself

We could not have asked for a better service in all respects. Everything was explained in an understandable way with great care and professionalism and at every stage there was ample time for questions which were answered clearly and to our satisfaction. Before signing, the documents were read to us and opportunity given to make some small adjustments. The process which initially had seemed somewhat daunting could not have been easier.
