    Will writing with Geoffrey Leaver Solicitors

    We recently visited the above company to compile our wills and were allocated to Catrina Saracino. She was a pleasure to work with, having an easy, relaxed manner at the same time remaining professional and knowledgeable. She put us at our ease, listened and advised on our concerns, resulting in the Wills we now hold. We would recommend Geoffrey Leaver Solicitors, in particular Catrina to anyone who is wondering whether to write a Will.

    A very professional and welcoming company

    My daughter had sourced Geoffrey Leaver and was impressed by the attitude to her telephone enquiry call. My daughter and I were made to feel very comfortable by the attitude of the solicitor and her colleague. They were understanding and very helpful explaining my wishes fully and leaving my daughter and I completely confident that on my death, my daughter who is my executor will have no problems in dealing with my estate.

    My husband and I recently visited Geoffrey Leaver solicitors to make our wills. We saw Karen Ward who was professional, and friendly with a great sense of humour. Everything was explained in terms we could understand. The whole experience was pleasurable despite the sombre subject matter. The wills were produced accurately in a very timely manner. We would have no hesitation in recommending Karen. Thank you Karen. You are a credit to the company.

      Credit where its due. Chasing a case with Richard Willis. He was quick and professional. He promised Me a call back shortly once he double checked on searches. Within a short time he came back as promised. I've found him very professional on the occasions I've dealt with him. And that's coming from an experienced agent of 20+ yrs experience. Keep up the good work
