    Outstanding Professionalism and Expertise.

    Alice and Tom were patient, tolerant, tenacious, diplomatic and outstandingly professional whilst navigating constant mendacious, vexatious and malicious dispute's raised by the other joint executor of an estate. They both persevered, despite issuing multiple warnings to the other executor, and reinstating retainer. Finally, after 4 years, Alice supported by Tom effectively, efficiently and practically steered the case to a close, with welcome relief from the other beneficiaries.

    Friendly, clear and knowledgeable

    Our children are grown up and it was time to review our Wills and financial arrangements for when we are older and Alice was able to do everything that we needed and provide advice not just on that, but also on tax issues, which is also a specialism of hers. She was friendly, clear and knowledgeable and produced everything in a timely fashion, keeping us updated of progress. We have already recommended her to a friend.

    Wills & Power of Attorney

    Highly recommend Hay & Kilner who dealt with our Wills & Power of Attorney in a sensitive and professional manner and gave us advice which we had never thought about.
