What others say:

 “Always clear, helpful and unhurried discussions.  Professional advice kindly given and much appreciated by me – Thank you!”

“We are extremely pleased with your service.  Kerry was technically aware, practical and a delight to deal with.  We will use her services again.  She met tight deadlines.”

“I cannot speak too highly of Kerry.  I had what I considered difficult problems, not only with my Will, but also my mobility.  Kerry always took my calls and promptly answered by emails.  Her advice was invaluable to me.  I wouldn’t hesitate to contact her if I had any problems in the future.”

  • “First class service from Kirsty Trevis 
on the sale of my property during the challenging times of the pandemic’”
