Producing wills.

My wife and I dealt with Lee Young. He was great in listening to our aims and explaining the solution to these. The outcome was what we wanted. There were a few communication issues relating to virtual signatures but nothing major.

James provided the ILA for our Director in relation to a bank loan. He is very responsive and communicated well, letting us know his planned holiday so we had the right expectations on the timeline. I would definitely recommend him for any legal advice you need.

I have used Frettens before to handle Probate and a house sale / purchase. I have always found them good. This time I decided to use them to buy a Freehold on a London based property while I was living abroad. Niki Adkins and her team were 1st rate with clear advice, guidance and fair transparent pricing. It was a pleasure to use them and I also received super positive feedback from the other people involved in the purchase.

I have just completed the purchase of my first house with the team at Frettens and Laura Bowie has been absolutely incredible, she was very approachable, supportive and was able to answer all of my questions and ensured a smooth process for the purchase and keeping me in the loop at all times. I would highly recommend using Frettens and I will recommend them to anyone that asks, thank you for everything!😁
