Grant of Probate

Had previously dealt with Gemma for POA, so when we needed help to apply for probate she was our first choice. Again her service was excellent, with her understanding, knowledge and caring approach. We were kept updated throughout and it all went through so quickly. Would definitely recommend this company.

Best Practice

Our situation involved different areas of law; the various members of each department worked seamlessly together to resolve each step without delay and with excellent communication. Their charges were clearly explained and were reasonable.

Gemma Brooke and her team, are exceptional in dealing with complex probate issues. I came to them disempowered and left with the outcome I wanted. Access to the legal secretaries was simple and effective, they delivered what they said they would and kept Gemma up to date. Gemma was highly professional, listened and gave amazing advise. Her team was a rock in my hard place. Thank you.

A relative passed away and we needed help with their will and probate. We were told by a friend that Gemma Brooke was the best at dealing with this. On our very first meeting with Gemma she was very friendly and made us feel at ease. She told us not to worry and that she would take care of everything. Well, I can honestly say that Gemma has gone above and beyond at keeping us informed every step of the way. When she hasn't been available her assistants Stephanie and Emily have been at hand for everything. Overall, outstanding and very much appreciated.

Used Cygnet Law to get Grant of Probate after my mother passed away. Although I was unable to meet with the Probate Solicitor, Gemma Brooke, in person, as she had covid, she spoke to me over the phone from home and explained everything in simple terms that I could easily understand and made, what might have been a complicated process for me to deal with, very easy. Would highly recommend Cygnet Law. Reasonable fee charged. Thank you Gemma
