Wills, Trusts and Probate
Very happy with the service received in our Probate case handled by Rachael Wilkinson. She is hugely knowledgable in the complex law surrounding Probate and Estate administration and I'm sure a more competent person would be difficult to find. Always at the end of the telephone or email, prompt action to queries and always friendly & professional. Her ability to impart detailed legal information in layman's terms is also hugely appreciated. The wider team at Eaton Smith is also worth a positive mention. Great people work at this organisation.
Overall, very satisfied and I have no hesitation in recommending.

The solicitor's detailed knowledge of the law applying to inheritance tax was essential and most useful.

Al members of staff I have spoken to on the phone, both those on reception, then various secretaries have been polite, patient and helpful.
Rachael herself has a kind and encouraging approach. I found professionally she has an impressive grasp of all areas. She is able to listen, then offer helpful, pertinent advice.
On a personal level she is preceptive and sensitive to individual circumstances. This was particularly relevant when dealing with Lasting Power of Attorney.

I found Rachael Wilkinson to be very helpful and understanding of my requirements. She very gently advised me when asked about certgain aspects of my Will and reinforced my understanding. I would highly recommend Rachael for Wills or LPAs. He knowledge was very good and she was very friendly but always professional.

The service provided by both teams has been professional and timely. Both the Solicitors and Support staff were friendly, helpful and kept in touch during the transfer of property of my late mothers estate. Everything was clearly explained and dealt with in an efficient manner and I would have no hesitation in recommending the services of Eaton Smith to other potential clients.
