Will renunciation and Probate
It was a very stressful time for us, especially when grieving for a loved one who passed away suddenly.
Peter Durham from Samuel Phillips law firm was amazing from start to finish.
He was professional, informative and most importantly he kept in contact. He always responded to all of our queries. When he went on annual leave, his supervisor Felicity took over until he returned.
We would highly recommend this law firm.

Will Refresh
Felicity Nelson made the whole process simple and understandable for my 2 elderly parents. Nothing was too much trouble even having to come firstly to Wansbeck Hospital in Ashington and then my mothers care home in Whickham to agree and then sign off the changes to the Will. I will certainly have no hesitation recommending Felicity to any of my friends and family who are thinking of making or refreshing their Wills

Application for Grant of Probate
Following the death of my Wife, it was necessary to apply for Grant of Probate. I was referred to Felicity Nelson who took all of the details required and completed the necessary documents in a very short time. At our interview, she was extremely helpful, friendly and professional. She explained all of the documents to me in detail with the utmost patience. I signed the documents at the end of our interview and she immediately made an Application for Grant of Probate. Thank you Felicity and Hazel for making an onerous task so easy for me. I hope to see you in the near future to conclude matters.

My new Will
Following the death of my Wife, it was necessary for me to prepare a new Will. With virtually no delay,Felicity Nelson contacted me and we arranged an appointment, again with minimum delay. At the appointment, Felicity had already read my file and grasped the nature of my wishes. We had a long discussion about the Will and Felicity explained the Will to me in great detail. She did this with the utmost patience and professionalism. Felicity then arranged for the Will to be dated, signed and witnessed. This was an enormous worry lifted from my mind. I would recommend Felicity to anyone who is in the situation I was in. She is the ultimate professional and an extremely nice person to deal with.

Alterations to existing wills
We were very impressed with the way our request was dealt with. Felicity went through everything in detail and answered any questions we had no bother, she also made sure everything was completed before we left on our holidays which eased our minds a great deal. I would not hesitate to use this company again.

A first class service
Felicity retrieved with great professionalism a difficult situation caused by a different law firm. She was sensitive to our concerns and responsive to our wishes, producing draft wills and accompanying letters of advice within twenty four hours. When we met to finalise the wills, she explained every clause clearly, ensuring that our initial queries were answered in full. Thank you, Felicity, for a job well done and thanks to Hazel too for providing the back up. We have every intention of using Samuel Phillips Law for any future work and would be happy to recommend it highly to family and friends.

Excellent service!
I enlisted the services of Samuel Phillips Law following the death of my father as his Will was held by them.
I spoke with Felicity who offered efficient and honest advisory, consultancy and guidance through the Will and probate process, as well as the Land Registry process for a property I subsequently inherited and the then creation of my own Will.
Felicity handled everything with empathy, trust and understanding, with her achieving very quick outcomes on all of my queries.
Having never dealt with legal practices previously, I have been very impressed with their service offering and advice I have been given and will be reaching out to them again regarding updates on my Will and legal advice prior to my marriage.
5 star service!
