Accepting new clients via ReviewSolicitors

I qualified as a solicitor in 2004 and am the Head of the Private Client Department. I advise clients in relation to wills, probate, administration of estates and intestacy, powers of attorney and Court of Protection applications, trust issues including setting up and administration and disputed wills. I particularly like working with older clients and assisting clients with inheritance tax and capital gains tax planning. I am a friendly and approachable solicitor who will deal with your legal issues using straightforward explanation and tailoring solutions depending on your circumstances as I do not believe in a “one size fits all” approach. Finding a course of action that is right for you as an individual is my goal. I studied at Hull University and completed my LPC at the College of Law, York. I have been a full member of the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners since 2007.

A very professional service, polite, kind staff; everything was explained that we did not fully understand or were not aware of. A nice experience.

A Friendly and Professional Service

Having been let down by another solicitor under the Will Aid scheme, we found Matthew Whitman and Caroline Billings to be approachable, understanding, and highly effective. Communication was excellent throughout, and legal jargon was explained in an easy-to-understand way. They provided a very professional service at a fair price. I would thoroughly recommend Hatch Brenner Solicitors!

Friendly and efficient

I cannot recommend Hatch Brenner highly enough. At a difficult time, they eased the process of a new Will and LPA. Everyone, from Caroline to the people in the office, was friendly and efficient. The inheritance tax issues were explained in language I understood, which helped make it all painless

Caroline dealt with Lasting Power Of Attorney for both financial and health. I have known Caroline for many years and trust her professionalism and ability to provide the service required. She provided this to the standard I knew she would. The one criticism I have of the procedure is of no fault of Caroline but of your costs. I could have engaged most other solicitors at a far lower cost. Had it not been for my personal relationship I would have gone elsewhere.
