Estate of Late Father

My wife and I have used Blanchards Bailey for a number of years for all our family affairs. They are by far the most professional solicitors we have come across and will continue to be used by us and all our family members. Specific thanks go to all the team especially to James Duncan and Jerome Dodge.

Probate

My recent experience of obtaining the Grant of Representation from the Probate Registry was greatly assisted by Blanchards Bailey. Sue Edwards and Cat Easdale were both highly efficient and friendly and really helped to make the process as easy as possible. Costs compared well with other firms' quotations. I would certainly recommend Blanchards Bailey to anyone needing assistance with probate.

Meggie

I required a legal document to be certified; I contacted Blanchards Bailey Solicitors in Weymouth. Meggie, the lady who certified the document was so very helpful and went above and beyond the basic certification. The Weymouth office on the Granby is easy to get to with ample car parking. I will be returning to Blanchards and Bailey for my other legal work. Vanessa
