I have been dealing with Helen Hotten for eleven years now, dealing with changes to my will, buying and selling property, and other legal matters and I always found her very easy to deal with. She takes great care to explain things and answers any questions without hesitation although I might have asked them one or more times before.

I first used Howell Jones in late 2024 and received excellent professional assistance from Helen Hotten in establishing P.O.A. for myself and my wife. We have now just completed the revision and preparation of new Wills and once again, Helen Hotten gave us the benefit of her high level of expertise, combined with her pleasant and friendly guidance and advice.

Thank you, Helen Hotten

I have just changed my will again following a large bequest from a good friend who died last year. Once again I dealt with Helen Hotten at Raynes Park, a wonderful lady whom I have known and worked with for very many years, always benefitting from her advice, expertise. attention to detail and personal empathy. We have been together through deaths and wills, house sales and purchases, deeds of variation, LPAs, plus advice and guidance on other legal matters. She is an absolute rock!
