Will writing
I had been given a recommendation from another member of EIS teaching union about the free service for teachers. It's something I've been meaning to do for years as our previous will did not include our two children.
The process was very straightforward and Martin was extremely helpful at all points of the process. Communication was quick and very helpful/clear. Would highly recommend.

Clear and speedy communication.
Martin was fantastic when preparing wills for my husband and I. Responses by email and post were very quick. It was very easy to meet with him online and it was no problem for him to make amendments for us. I would definitely consider using Martin again in the future.

EIS Will.
Making a will is not the most pleasant task. I feel that legal implications were clearly explained to me whilst I received clear advice and was given time to reflect upon decisions. Thank you.
