Excellent lawyer

I was six month pregnant when Michael took my case and him and his team made things as easy as possible for me and got me the best possible outcome in court. He explained everything to me clearly so I would understand and was always happy to talk over email or phone to discuss any worries I had. Not only is Michael the best at what he does he is a genuinely a very nice man.

I called for an enquiry and potential appointment today related to a Right to Reside Trust written within my Deceased fathers will. I spoke with the solicitor Michael, very quickly and he provided simple sound advice within minutes. I was expecting to arrange an appointment but it was all done in 5 minutes. I may add when I did the same enquiry at Wards Solicitors whom wrote the Trust within the Will, it was 4 to 6 weeks to arrange an appointment with the Solicitor who did the Trust, to then cancel the week before, stating they can't advise and referred me to their trust department delaying me further weeks, then quoting an initial two hour appointment for a charge up to nearly £1000 inc VAT for a simple enquiry, just to speak with them. It just shows if you search around, you can find decent respectable solicitors that wont take financial advantage of you. Michael from Kidwells demonstrated this with his professionalism, promptness and expertise. Whilst I wasn't charged anything, I will now use them for all future enquiries and my looming house sale, because how they treated me so Thankyou

We needed a document independently witnessed urgently and contacted Kidwells Hereford. Within minutes we received a call back from Michael who was most helpful and made an appointment for us to visit their local office a few hours later. We met with Caitlin, one of their solicitors who again was very helpful and within ten minutes we were sorted. Thank you for your prompt and efficient service. The next time we need a solicitor we will definitely be using Kidwells and would recommend them whole heartedly. Rob & Sarah, Hereford

Michael was supportive after my initial arrest, and helped me through what was an alien experience. He was able to get me a superb barrister who took charge through my court experiences, taking a lot of pressure off me, and resulting in a favourable outcome.
