Will

Serena was brilliant throughout my Will process from initial instruction to finalising the matter. Everything was explained clearly and all my queries were answered. A very quick, professional and efficient service, cannot recommend Lucas & Wyllys enough!

We instructed Serena to deal with our late father’s estate. We were guided through the whole probate process with knowledge, compassion and understanding making a difficult time as painless as possible. Would definitely recommend.

Will - Probate - LPA's

5

I used Lucas & Wyllys following the death of my wife. Both Emma and Serena were extremely sympathetic and guided me through probate, a new Will and LPA's for health & welfare.

They made everything as easy as possible during what was a very difficult time. I particularly like the fixed fees so I knew right from the start what costs were involved.

At the end of the day everything went very smooth and I have no hesitation in recommending L & W to anyone in a similar situation to the one I found myself in.

Very professional

It was a pleasure to update our Wills. Serena made the whole process very straightforward with her professional but friendly manner. We had been recommended to use Serena and we will not hesitate to recommend her ourselves whenever possible.

Serena was extremely helpful in working with us to make new wills. Explained everything, sent a draft, slight changes made. Went in today to finalise and sign. I would recommend Serena.
