Help with UK rental property

While resident in the US, Jacqueline and team helped me to economically change the ownership distribution of our UK rental property which will allow us each to make best use of our UK personal tax allowances now I have retired and collect an annuity. The process was explained clearly and performed on the agreed cost and schedule from abroad. Highly recommended and will be using to update our wills.

Excellent service

Jacqueline Almond was co-executor and estate solicitor in relation to our deceased aunt’s estate, and provided an excellent service. She was always helpful, knowledgeable, quick, practical and friendly. We would certainly recommend her.

Highly recommend this Solicitor

I was able to sort out my LPA's and update my Will in a easy friendly manner. All my queries were answered with clear explanations. A difficult task became easy to deal with and a relief to complete with Jacqueline's help.

Jacqueline Almond, who is a partner in the private client department is outstanding. Jacqueline has been our family solicitor for many years and has acted on numerous occasions with Wills, Powers of Attorney, finding a care company to care for my mother and step-father in their home and dealing with my late mother's estate, when she died in 2022. You could not find a better solicitor to help you through these issues. Indeed we were so lucky to have had Jacqueline to navigate our way through and we will certainly be asking Jacqueline to assist us in the future. Thank you so much Jacqueline for everything you have done for us.

Aggressive and very unprofessional invoicing policy, spoilt what seemed, at the outset, a good working relationship.
