I cannot praise Andrew and his team enough, they have given me fantastic support and service over the last year. I have dealt with the team for matters including Power of Attorney, Wills and Estates, and most recently a house purchase and sale and would not hesitate to use them in the future.

Report
I can't speak more highly of this firm. I've had two separate legal issues processed by solicitor Lee Higham, whose professionalism, attention to detail and judgement were exemplary. So too her competent secretary Mary Kennedy, and the reception staff.
Lee's approachability and warmth made face to face meetings a pleasure - and all prospective work and fees were comprehensively described beforehand. Final invoices were reasonable, with no nasty surprises, and represented good value. For those uncertain in selecting a reputable law firm, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the services of Powell
