Wills

Approached GWL to write Wills for myself and my wife, our requirements were not as straight forward as we thought and Peter Marsh explained in a clear, concise and easily understood way the different options open to us. We agreed on an option that suited both of us and the draft Wills were drawn up and sent to us the next day, we accepted the drafts and signed the following day. The knowledge and service were 1st class and I would highly recommend the practise.

Lasting Powers of Attorney registration

5

Our Lasting Powers of Attorney application was progressed as quickly as possible, with the help of all involved, and was aided by extremely clear instruction from Mr Marsh to help all parties complete the process without any hold-ups.
An extremely good service from our very first approach, to the final letter.

Every part of the exercise was pleasant and professional, excepting the original draft document of the will, which was riddled with inaccuracies. Clearly, the document had not been read after its typing.

Mr Peter Marsh acted on behalf of myself and my husband in drawing up LPA and our Wills. Everything was completed quickly, efficiently and in a relaxed and friendly way. Would recommend this firm and would not hesitate in using them again, if required, in the future.
