Estate Administration

A full administration of my late mother's estate was undertaken, firstly by Lawrence Dunne & then by Jessica Flaherty. All enquiries were answered in a prompt, courteous & professional manner at all times, and all advise clear and concise. The staff on the reception decks were excellent on all my dealings with them, and I never had to chase up any emails, correspondence etc as all aspects were dealt with in a timely & sensitive manner. At a difficult time, the service was first class & I only have positive words for all concerned.

Jessica kindly covered probate for my family. It was an extremely difficult case and she dealt with it with patience, kindness and understanding. It was far from a straight case, however she kept us informed and had great communication especially through the difficult times. I would fully recommend Jessica for any probate issues you may have and we can't thank her enough.

Excellent service

I'm very pleased with the service provided by Bell Lamb & Joynson. I mainly dealt with Lawrence Dunne and he was very friendly, honest and professional in all our meetings. I thought the fees were very reasonable for the service provided and I would definitely use these solicitors again in the future.
