Will preparation.

I am very grateful for the advice and help from the Solicitor in preparing my Will. He came to my house which meant I was more relaxed than going to an office, He explained the various necessities when making a will and why it was important to have a will outlining my wishes both before and after my death.

from Thorntons Law Llp

We are pleased to hear that you felt comfortable and well supported throughout the process, Moira. It is important to us that clients receive clear advice and understand the decisions involved, and we are glad this approach gave you confidence in putting your wishes in place. Thank you for sharing your experience.

I had the displeasure of dealing with Karen Stevenson today. She continually interrupted me and spoke over the top of me. When I asked her companies complaint procedure she became more abrasive and said she had no idea what it was. Poor service from a reputable firm.

We take feedback like this seriously and are concerned to hear that you did not feel the service you received met your expectations. We are unable to comment on the details of individual matters publicly, but we would welcome the opportunity to look into your concerns further. Please contact us directly at clientrelations@thorntons-law.co.uk so that we can review what happened and respond appropriately.

Exceptional service and advice from Graham Taylor and the team at Thorntons Law. Graham acted for me for the purchase of a new property in Montrose, everything was dealt with efficiently and with due care from start to finish. Thornton's should be your 'go-to' place for legal work in Scotland. Thank you Graham and your team.

from Thorntons Law Llp

Rob, we’re grateful for your kind words. It’s great to know that Graham and the team provided a smooth and well managed service throughout your property purchase. We appreciate your recommendation and wish you all the best in your new home.
