It was a very difficult time and Nicola always gave great advice, even when I wasn't very open to hearing it! It was good to know I had someone knowledgeable and sensible in my corner and I was very pleased with the final outcome.

Richard Wilkes

Tagged solicitor Richard Wilkes

I approached Richard with my LPA suggestions that were personal and comprehensive. His advice was very accurate and knowledgeable and suggested my views although accurate, were over-complicated. Hence he advised more straightforward wording that for Public Guardian approval on first submission.
