Outstanding!

We had been looking for a solicitor for quite a while before we approached Martin Cray. From the first instance, the initial telephone conversation, we knew we had come to the right company. The service we received from everyone involved, and in particular our first meeting with Tamara, was exceptional. We were made to feel welcome and approached in a friendly and highly professional manner. We felt comfortable, heard and understood. I would not hesitate to recommend this firm and we are so very pleased to have found it.

Excellent service all round! Would use again

Tamara was kind, patient and clear from the get go. We had a long running probate case and she took the time to listen carefully, explain the process and chase up in a timely manner. I couldn’t recommend her services more highly. Thanks for everything!

highly recommended

We found Martin Cray because we needed a solicitor to help untangle our daughters UK estate after her sudden death in Australia. It was an awful job for us, the one no parent wants, so we needed someone who could navigate two jurisdictions and our grief. Tamara was the prefect blend of professionalism and kindness...and blessing in a storm.

Experienced, professional and experts. Thank you for a first class service, regards will writing and advice on potential issues with probate/IHTax. It is worthwhile paying a little bit more for such quality than doing things cheaply. Tamara also advised on little-known aspects of probate planning such as if a beneficiary is under 18 it is best to have 2-executors. Also if you marry, divorce or have a civil partnership it is advisable to review your will.

Driving Offence

This was a potentially serious case and Matt Bishop's calm, assured and professional advice was spot on. Following his guidance at the police interview the case was filed with no further action taken. I am extremely grateful for his work on this matter and thoroughly recommend his services to others in similar circumstances.

Highly impressed A*** service

Matt Bishop tackled and won my case in regard to false allegations. I found Matt’s attention to detail, knowledge and representations to the police officer, excellent and highly preeminent. I thus, didn’t have to attend an interview regarding these false allegations and I believe, without Matt, that would not have been the case. Matt examined with precision, all of the evidence that I had provided and offered sort after advice and knowledge that was invaluable. The stress of being falsely accused and then having those accusations dropped, was definitely all down to Matt’s work effort and detailed understanding of the situation. Thank you, I will absolutely use this company again but I hope it will be under much better circumstances. Thank you so much. I would highly recommend Matt, he really knows his stuff.

Before I made contact with Martin Cray and co, I thought it was all doom and gloom as a male in a married family home, potentially heading for separation. Then Donna at Martin Cray & co, spun it completely on its head, Donna was able to see me at short notice and the info Donna provided me in my first hour meeting was incredibly encouraging, Donna was very clear and understanding. I feel in a much better place and clearer on the potential next steps. Thank you so much Donna and Martin Cray & co solicitors.
