Writing My Will - Excellent Service

I would highly recommend Lisa Edge as I found her to be extremely approachable, giving straight forward advice and easy to understand when it came it came to the legal bits. The whole experience was stress free and dealt with quickly and efficiently. I will definitely use Lisa and Keelys services again in the future.

Excellent Probate Support - Highly Recommend

I had a great experience working with Helen Jolly at Keeley's Solicitors for a grant of probate. She was professional, efficient, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire process. Everything was explained clearly, and it made a difficult time much easier to manage.
Communication was always prompt and helpful, and I felt confident knowing the legal side of things was in good hands. I truly appreciated the empathy and attention to detail.
Highly recommend Keeley's Probate Service to anyone dealing with probate or estate matters.

Impressed

I first met Helen when I was executor of my sisters estate. It has been a long and eventful journey but Helen and her team were very professional thoughtful and kept me up to date at every turn. I myself have not been too well and Helen on more than one occasion dropped paperwork to my home rather than me having to go to their office. I would highly recommend them . My husband and I actually decided to use them to write our Wills whilst everything else was being sorted and was extremely happy with their service. I cannot praise them highly enough.

Perceived tough process made easy

Having heard many horror stories of getting LPA's I expected a long painful process, instead it was anything but! I am so grateful for the professionalism and care provided by Helen. Many thanks for a job expertly done.

Professional, understanding and knowledgeable.

I had an excellent experience working with Julie Cox on my family law case.
Following several breaches to a Child arrangement order Julie was professional, compassionate, and incredibly knowledgeable throughout the entire process. I always felt well-informed and supported, and she handled every detail with care and precision. Julie’s communication was prompt and clear, and she truly advocated for the best interests of my children.
I highly recommend Julie to anyone in need of a dedicated and skilled family lawyer.

Loretta and her team were fantastic. They were very thorough and had to be very agile for what was not the most straightforward of cases. They also managed to hit an incredibly tight deadline! Thanks again. Katie & Matt

I have worked with Keelys LLP for years and have always received a fantastic service from Loretta Hales and her conveyancing team helping build a property portfolio. Loretta is very approachable and is able to explain complex issues related to our purchases in a way we can understand and agree actions to progress to completion, knowing we receive appropriate advice for a safe purchase. I would recommend working with Loretta and her team for any conveyancing matters.

Five stars. This is the 2nd time I've used Loretta at Keelys for conveyancing. The first time to buy a shared ownership property and then again to staircase on the property recently. Loretta is very responsive to enquiries, answering any queries with understanding. Both times the process was completed in a timely manner with care. Thank you. *****

Loretta was a joy to deal with. It certainly was not the easiest of transactions, her communication was excellent and you never felt you did not know what was going on as an agent. Would highly recommend.
