Our Wills

5

We had an appointment at the Thetford office to update our wills but, by the due date, my husband was too poorly to attend, so Laura came to our home to take instruction.

She returned that afternoon with the completed wills, along with a colleague who witnessed our signatures.

We were immensely grateful for the manner and speed in which the matter was dealt with.
