J. M., May 2025

“Just wanted to give a massive shout out to Herman. He has supported myself and also my parents with writing up wills and with some inheritance tax advice as well. Everything was made really clear very professional, ethical and boundaried. Herman was very patient with us, and I would highly recommend him. The company also seem to have a very straightforward way of contacting solicitors directly and dealing with invoices, and being upfront about payment, which was very much appreciated.

Prior to finding this law firm I had phoned around other family law firms to inquire about Will costing and for lots of them you had to go through many different people in order to finally get to speak to a solicitor and get a clear understanding of the costings and what The work would involve . I was able to speak directly to Herman from day one and he was really clear both verbally uninviting with the costing and what the work would involve, and he was patient but clear on time scales.

I would use Herman’s services again if the need arose.”

“I wanted to revise my will and appoint RIAA Barker Gillette as my Executor and Trustees. This was handled very efficiently and professionally. It helped that I had agreed a fixed fee in advance.”
