It was a pleasure doing business with Duncan. Clear advice, never rushing a decision. I recommend him unreservedly.

Draft and prepare Will and Declaration of Trust

Duncan Weir, is the latest Partner, of the monumentally well-established firm of Rutters, Shaftesbury, with whom I have received advice and guidance from, over the last 56 years, on a range of issues, with clarity, and professional integrity being conspicuously demonstrated throughout. He diligently follows on these traditional, consistent values which are the hallmark of this firm.

A Perfect Job

I'd heard that getting lasting powers of attorney made is an expensive and lengthy process, but Duncan expertly and thoughtfully got the job done in a reasonable amount of time, and at a sensible price. I've now got one of those awkward but essential tasks out of the way.
