Alia Allen dealt with the Grant of Probate on my late mum's estate in a sympathetic and informative manner. She explained the process to me in easy to understand language making the process so much easier at a really difficult time.

Was recommended this company by our estate agents and have no regrets. Owen Baker and his team communicated well. My property previously had a planning enforcement notice on it that made a lot of hurdles when selling, but the team managed to get all the answers and complete the sale. Would Highly recommend. Thanks for your support Owen
