Contrary to the experience of the other reviewer, I have found the advice and services of this company top notch, showing an in-depth understanding of the law, and the complexities of wise estate planning.

Report
I did not want the services of this company and was rather disappointed to get a pushy letter stating that ' they will be in contact to arrange a convenient time' and the implication that my will, although fairly recently written by an experienced will writer, may be out of date and not relevant to my circumstances. I am extremely weary of pushy salesmen and companies, especially after one tried to get power of attorney over a very competent friend of mine. I had given explicit instructions to my will writer that I did not want anything to do with this company, nor did I want them to contact me
