“As executor for a friend's estate I was not looking forward to selling her property, she had been in residence for 62 years. The team at Leese & Nagle could not have been more friendly and helpful, an early sale was made and for the asking price, slightly surprising as the property is in need of some TLC and I had expected some difficult negotiations. However all went very smoothly thanks to Louis and his colleagues, they could not have done better. Once again many thanks Louis for an excellent result, would highly recommend Leese & Nagle any time.”

“I've had a really great experience with them. They have been incredibly helpful throughout my tenancy, always professional and responsive. A special thank you to Sofia Lopresti, who made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Her support and clear communication really stood out. Highly recommend!”

“Lewis has always been great, helping with a number of remortgages, every time getting things sorted quickly and communicating patiently, really appreciated, thanks.”

“Ian has been excellent at providing advice and guidance to achieve my financial goals. Thanks to Ian's diligence, he spotted an error that my provider had made and got it rectified immediately. Thoroughly recommend”

“I have known Simon Carlin via the last company I worked for before retiring where he came in and set up our company pension scheme and then later when due to government changes in workers pensions Simon came and explained in great detail the best way forward which resulted in changing to the people's pension .When I retired recently I had no hesitation to contact Simon who easily sorted out both of my company pensions into the best available annuities for myself in my retirement ,I would have no hesitation in recommending Simon to anybody needing expert advice”

“I strongly recommend Kinherit for several reasons. First, my advisor, Dan Harris, spent several Zoom sessions laying out options and helping me write up my will and trust. Near the end of the process, I still had some questions, so he did not hesitate to set up another call. Second, I decided to set up a trust as well as a will to protect the interests of my beneficiaries. I thought trusts were only for quite wealthy people and beyond my means. However, the cost of setting up a trust was reasonable, especially given that it offers so much more protection, clarity, and practical procedural direction after one passes away. I feel much more at ease now than I did with the will I made out several years ago. Another advantage of opting for Kinherit is that they have a storage system of information that will most certainly help beneficiaries and trustees manage my estate after I pass away. This should make probate simpler and help those close to me to contact my friends and other associates to let them know of my passing.”

“Lewis Short was excellent at engaging with me. He showed a genuine interest in my circumstances and helped give me options of policies. I would highly recommend reassured, they are professional, courteous, they pick up the phone when you call and they will call you back. Very efficient. I would use them again.”

“From the outset, I found Freya very approachable and friendly. She was professional from start to finish. She listened, accepted and acted on instructions, was informative and kept me regualry updated on applications and discussing suitable applicants. I also had pleasant dealings with Dave and Joseph. My property has very recently been Let, so would highly recommend House & Co as a Lettings service to date. I have also been very impressed with their processes, administration and online portal.

“Amy, from The Malmesbury Clinic was fantastic for sorting my shoulder/neck pain. I don't normally make appointments for my health care issues, but I was feeling so exhausted with the pain in my shoulder that was making me feel awful. Amy was professional and took time to hear of my past medical history and the symptoms which I had in my shoulder. Her treatment was spot on and I felt fantastic after an hour of massage of my shoulder, back and neck. She has managed to smooth out my aches and pains! I have some specific exercises to do to help build up strength in my shoulder. Absolutely fantastic results. Thank you so much. Would highly recommend.”

“I have used MP Estate Planning to set up a trust structure to save 50% inheritance tax on my property. I was dubious about this when I first read about it, but applied anyway. I was greatly helped by Gareth Lloyd, who was my initial contact. I had many questions to ask over many months so I could fully understand the process and what was involved. Gareth took the time to answer all of my questions, even after I had paid the full fee. He provided me with a great amount of detail, and without his help I probably would not have proceeded with the purchase. Gareth answering all my questions helped me understand how the trusts worked and what was required to set them up and manage them.”

We were simply looking to update our existing Will, but instead for a reasonable cost went for a joint ‘Trust’ Will. Amy was excellent, patiently explaining all options and opportunities to protect our Estate and inheritance for our loved ones, she was tactful and insightful. What can feel an emotive subject was clearly explained resulting in an easy and positive experience, giving us peace of mind. All staff were very friendly, service so professional and efficient, have recommended Simpson’s and their products to friends.”
