Efficient and friendly will service

Empathetic, clear, and practical advice about the formulation of my will. I felt full confidence in the process and appreciated the friendly yet suitably professional and knowledgeable approach.

Very happy

We are very happy with the completed estate and value the work undertaken by Diane Yarrow-Smith from Gotelee. Although this process is a long one, we were kept informed and speedily responded to if we had any questions! A necessary process but one dealt with professionally.

Excellent service outstanding overall

5

Such a friendly service I was very nervous & suffer with anxiety. I was treated with kindness and respect and made to feel nothing was too much trouble. Dianne came out to my house and this made it so much easier for me, I feel so relieved my Will is now sorted after months of worrying. Thank you.

My Late Mother's Estate

5

This is my third probate case and each time I have used Diane Yarrow-Smith at Gotelee Solicitors, Ipswich. I always found her to be friendly and approachable; at the same time efficient and professional.

The whole process was excellent. Sound advice and efficient handling. My brother and I received what was felt like a really personal service from all at Gotelees. Thank you Diane and Hannah.

I'd never go anywhere else

5

This is the third time I've used Gotelee for my legal matters. There are cheaper options available, both locally and online, but the first class experience from first meeting to a successful conclusion is worth every penny. They are incredibly professional but friendly and straightforward and so reassuring through each stage of the matter. I would never use anyone else and sing their praises to anyone who needs legal services. A mention for Diane Yarrow-Smith, who was excellent!

Professional and practical advice

5

Having a bereavement in the family, it's a time we want good advice and this is what we received from Gotelee Solicitors on the transfer of house ownership, making Wills and getting Power of Attorney. We are grateful for the way things were handled for us.
