A welcoming experience

5

I wanted to make a small change to my will. When I arrived at the Ringwood office I was warmly welcomed by the team and made comfortable in a meeting room where Lee soon joined me.

When Lee joined he made me feel very relaxed when talking about the changes, explains everything, checks your understanding and encourages questions while listening and making sure he has understood what you are asking/saying.

An excellent experience.

Continuous Assistance from Lee Young at Frettens Solicitors.

5

Over a number of years we have consulted Lee Young at Frettens Solicitors. These have been family matters including Wills and Lasting Power of Attorney. We have always been able to meet with Mr. Young without delay. His help and advice has always been provided in a straight forward crystal clear way. He is knowledgeable, friendly and he explains everything so that we can fully understand the situation. His help is timely and to the quoted cost.

Helped with dealing with two estates

4

I was appointed executor of two estates, but what seemed initially to be straightforward turned out to be anything but. I approached Frettens (who I have dealt with before) and Lee Young was the solicitor appointed to help me. I am very grateful for his assistance in dealing with these estates as I do no think I could have done it on my own.

Excellent

5

In the past I had used other solicitors to write my will. A family member recommended Frettens.

Lee Young, the partner who dealt with me, was excellent. He explained everything extremely well. I was particularly pleased with the brevity of my will. Others had been very verbose! I was also extremely pleased with the cost.

I would definitely recommend Lee and Frettens.
