When phoning, your PA recommended a Mr James Clarkson. She sung his praises and this found to be true. Mr Clarkson is ideal for his position. All throughout our dealings with the Will he was professional, easy to approach with questions. Mr Clarkson explained things again for me due to my dyslexia and ADHD. To allow a non member to be my executer was easier to do than I thought. I wish I had come to your company earlier. I wish you well.
