Exceptional, professional and emphatic service

Having gone into the process both the first time and upon this revisit somewhat nervously, both Emma Lockwood, and her secretary Karen Evans, guided me through everything perfectly.

Exceptional Service... for the second time! (and likely from here on in now)

This was the second time we had the need of Sampson Coward LLP, and in particular that of Emma Lockwood (their Partner and Head of Private Client) -assisted by her Secretary Karen Evans .

Probate and preparation of my Will

I first contacted Sampson Coward in February 2026, in order to enhance proving probate in respect of my late wife, Patria Ann Chorley. Throughout, I have been met with courtesy, efficiency and professionalism. In matters regarding my Will, that was finalised on September 1st. 2026; granting of probate ongoing.

Excellent, professional and friendly service

Emma Lockwood handled everything related to a rather complicated estate in a very efficient and professional way. She supported my fellow executor and myself throughout with clear advice, replying promptly and clearly to our queries and keeping us well informed as matters proceeded, which was essential as many aspects were new to us and would otherwise have been very stressful.
