We were lost as to sorting out an Executor and POA for a will both for myself and my wife moving forward as well as an ongoing Executor for my Aunt’s will. Ailidh Ballantyne came through to our home and put us at ease with everything and took it all out of our hands.

I was dealt with in a professional and friendly manner and felt at ease immediately. I had a number of questions, particularly about the POA, which were answered clearly and in a way that I could understand. As I result I felt confident about signing the forms.

Both Amelia and Ailidh were friendly and I was put at ease quickly. I had a number of questions, particularly with the POA, which were explained clearly to me and made me feel confident about signing forms.

I have used Scullion Law previously to assist with a mortgage, and found them to be hugely helpful. They made the entire experience pain-free, and assisted with any issues I had.

Recently, I reached out to them again for an estate-related enquiry. Throughout the whole process, Ailidh Ballantyne was helpful and approachable, and easily answered any questions I had with the process.

We instructed ailidh Ballantine senior associate director, to administer my late mother’s estate. Ailidh was warm personable, kind, patient, through and diligent in all her dealings with our family. She was available when we needed to contact her, demystified the jargon for us and held our hand through the process. Her approach took a lot of stress of the process away for us and made our lives a little easier at a very difficult time. We would heartily recommend ailidh and in fact plan to instruct her again to prepare my will and power of attorney
Thank you ailidh
