Mark Cooper

Avoid at all costs

This has been the most unprofessional organisation I have ever encountered. Their handling of arrangements following my father’s passing made an already difficult time significantly more distressing. Calls went unreturned, emails unanswered, and commitments repeatedly broken. The overall service was disorganised and deeply disappointing. I would strongly advise others to avoid this company.

A representative from KWW responded to this review

Dear Mr Cooper, we are extremely sorry you have been moved to write a negative review. While it is unlikely to placate you, we must provide some context in order to defend the reputation of our firm and our Private Client team in particular. Without wishing to disclose the exact nature of your contact with us, we can say the process was lengthy, involved family members, and was at times contentious. While we understand you must have felt very frustrated, we are satisfied we conducted the matter with the care and attention demanded.

Exceptional professional customer experience

Recognizing Karen Starkey for her superb assistance with all the necessary processes that follow someone's passing. Its hard enough to function when grieving but Karens professional advice, understanding demeanor and open style have been a huge support. She has also provided professional guidance to others that I have recommended her and Clifton Ingram to and made a huge difference . Could not recommend highly enough
