Unfortunately I have had to deal with this frim on a number of matters including probate , lease extensions and transferring of titles .I found them totally unresponsive and when a response was provided after numerous email chasers all I received were lame excuses as to why the file had not bee worked on . Eventually I had to instruct a more professional firm who quickly resolved the matters but at additional expense! not impressed at all .

"All they want to do is "help" for a fee"...
"Helping" is what they do... and we pay them for it because it's their job. I really can't make it any simpler for you
For two generations of my family, Emyr and is colleagues have provided an outstanding service. I would wholeheartedly and without reservation recommend them
