Ian Spender

Tagged solicitor Ian Spender

Mr Spender came to our home, as my husband and I found great difficulty in climbing the stairs to his office. He took great trouble in explaining the Lasting Power of Attorney to us. I was able to read the forms, but my husband, who has Macular Degeneration could not. Mr Spender spent time and effort in reading the forms to him. In fact, nothing was too much trouble for Mr Spender, who put us both at ease. I highly recommend Mr Spender for his professionalism and his genuine concern for our welfare.

Zena Hill

Tagged solicitor Zena Hill

Zena has been absolutely amazing, not just for the legal side, but a great support, I found my divorce hard and it made me feel anxious and stressed, Zena would always reassure me, she would always respond to me promptly and ring me back straight away if I needed her. She helped me and I am now in a better place thanks to Zena. I would highly recommend Zena to any one looking for a divorce/finance solicitor as she is the best.
