I do not have an email address but all I can say is Mr Sheppard did everything we asked, kept us informed at all time and I would definitely use Gibson's again.

Dealing with Gibson & Co gave me the confidence and peace of mind that my legal issues were being taken care of by a top legal Firm. Wouldn’t hesitate to return should the need arise, and thoroughly recommend.

Excellent professional service

I chose to use Gibson & Co based on previous reviews and I am glad I did. I used Chris to make a new will and LPA, throughout the process Chris explained everything clearly and listened to my requirements. So professional yet with an empathetic approach, everything was completed to my full satisfaction. From the moment you walk through the front door, the service is impeccable, I have no hesitation in recommending this firm.

updating a will

I recently had dealings with Mr C. Sheppard and found him most helpful. I regard having such proffessional avaible on the West Road. A real bonus of valuable asset for the West End.
