Alex Richardson

Tagged solicitor Alex Richardson

Losing my father was a very sad, hard time and then being faced with probate which was a new experience was difficult. But with the guidance and professionalism of Alex this was made easier. Any questions we had Alex was able to answer them with reassurance. Also his support and kindness at this time made the process more manageable.

We used Hansells, Sara Young for probate for my late mothers estate. Sara was compassionate, professional, explained the process fully with all the options and clear costs. We had regular communication and updates throughout the process and Sara was always very approachable when we had questions. What could have been a complicated process at a difficult time was made a lot easier with Sara’s help. Thankyou

Kevin Dhanda

Tagged solicitor Kevin Dhanda

I'd like to thank Kevin Dhanda of Sydney Mitchell for being absolutely brilliant throughout the whole process of a difficult year after my sisters sudden death. She died intestate and Kevin handled the whole matter from applying for Letters of Administration, capital gains queries for the Inland Revenue and sorting out the whole Estate. He was thorough, professional and reassuring at all times. Would definitely recommend him.

Robyn MacNeil

Tagged solicitor Robyn MacNeil

We entrusted W&AS Bruce to prepare Wills and Powers of Attorney for both my wife and me. The whole process was handled very efficiently from start to finish, with sincere thanks to Robyn MacNeil. Additionally, we received clarification on behalf of my mum regarding her own Will and the full extent of her long standing Power of Attorney, which she had been unsure about. It was reassuring for her to know that everything was as she expected and that all documents were securely held. Legal matters can often be time consuming and complicated, but with the help of Robyn and the staff at W&AS Bruce, we felt we were treated with courtesy and respect throughout, and the whole process was far easier than we anticipated. We would happily recommend the services of Robyn and the solicitors as a whole to any prospective clients.
