Lodge Brothers Legal Services Limited

I have engaged Mrs MacDiarmid's services twice now and can honestly say that she goes that extra mile for her clients. Genuinely caring and doing her utmost to make those difficult tasks less onerous. Very knowledgeable, very professional, her advice is always sound and she is always happy to explain and support her clients.

It is particularly rewarding to know that you found Helen to be genuinely caring as well as knowledgeable and professional.

I can recommend lodge brothers legal services as the service we had from them was 2nd to none. But lodge Brothers funeral services I would highly recommend not to use them, they could not have got it more wrong when the whole family is grieving they put the name on the coffin and we didn’t realise until we carried the coffin in to the crematorium, they completely missed up what should’ve gone in the coffin and on top of the coffin, even though letters from my sister had been sent. Then it took over two weeks to get my mum’s ashes back and they came up with the excuse. They was waiting for a scatter Box even though the funeral and what we wanted was booked weeks before. I cannot describe how annoyed and hurt the family are. The answers below are for the legal services. Kind regards, Colin Cowley

Many thanks for your review.

Many thanks indeed to Lorna Greening who clearly explained each step of the process necessary to obtain probate. When some bumps in the road appeared (a seemingly lost Will), Lorna provided straightforward and effective guidance - e.g. how long, as executor, I should wait before distributing the estate. At all times Lorna was clear, calm, informative and available – and only an email away. I have no hesitation in recommending her. Thanks Lorna!

I cannot recommend highly enough. Geoff dealt every query for this complex probate and inheritance case. He was professional and personable. J Ferris

Extremely good service. Professional advice and considerate caring attitude. Made a difficult time easier to cope with. No way could we have sorted out everything ourselves. Would recommend highly.
