non-standard Tenancy Agreement

The latest in a fairly long list of involvements with S & B was preparing a sensible no-rent Tenancy Agreement for a property in Lincoln. The property is owned by a family trust established to benefit my younger (physically handicapped) sister, who sadly died in January 2024, and the Trustees wanted to ensure that her husband, who had dramatically improved her quality of life over at least a 25 year period, could continue to occupy the property. As S & B (particularly Richard and Victoria) understood the family situation, they were ideally placed to help.

Administration of my Father's Estate

I would like to thank Anna O'Mara for all her help and being our main contact in administering and distributing my Dad's estate. I would also like to thank the Executors Andrew Durkan & Richard Bussell for their professional advice too. Anna has become our family's solicitor in all our inheritance planning and has provided help with Will writing, setting up Powers of Attorney and has dealt with the distribution of two of my family member's estates. She is approachable, has a great knowledge of her subject, is conscientious and keeps you informed throughout the process and responds to all queries quickly. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Anna to anyone requiring this service.

Richard has just completed an assignment for myself and my wife. I have worked with S&B for many years and I have always found them helpful, pragmatic and responsive. Thoroughly recommended.

Sills Betteridge partners Martin Walsh, Andrew Payne and Richard Bussell have provided a very professional service both to our family and various businesses. The firm has worked tirelessly with inheritance, corporate and property matters. We have been extremely impressed by their significant experience, legal knowledge, professionalism, service, and cogent and practical legal advice. The team provided a seamless service with each member being always fully aware of the different aspects and easily contactable to discuss issues as they arose. We rate them highly.
