Lorna Watts

Tagged solicitor Lorna Watts

LDJ have always hooked after me when I need it whether it has been a Will or an employment issue. It is a very friendly environment and everyone does go the extra miles. Nothing was too much bother including a last minute request for a last minute appointment which was possible. I would certainly recommend them as the go to Solicitors in the town.

Kara MacGregor-Duke

Tagged solicitor Kara MacGregor-Duke

Although it was only one meeting for advice and it is likely that no further business will take place between us, Kara was very professional, thorough and informative with her communication of what things I should consider with my case and what I could maybe think about doing next. As a result, I would recommend Complete Clarity & Simplicity Legal to anyone looking for concise legal advice.
