Alison was amazingly helpful and caring in sorting LPA's

When a relative had a sudden illness, Alison came to meet us and arranged powers of attorneys in the most caring and professional way. She explained everything to each of us and took time with our relative to make sure their wishes were met. Brilliant!

Excellent Trust Will Service

The clear and supportive advice and service I received from start to finish was excellent. I highly commend the paralegal Alison Craven assigned to my case and am really grateful for her understanding and professionalism in providing the will I required. As a result I will definitely look to using both Alison Craven and Williamsons Solicitors Ltd legal services again.

New will

Very happy with the options presented and the help deciding which ones suited my needs. The will making was not onerous. I explained outline of what I wanted and the hard work was done for me. I had a great experience.

Making my first will with Alison Craven. Attended in a private room and had a hassle free experience were details are explained and talked about with a trainee solicitor taking notes and Alison advising on each paragraph to assist in decision’s been made by myself. These two ladies were very professional and I would have no hesitation in recommending Williamsons solicitors to anyone wishing to make their Will Thank you Alison and team.
