Our focus is on advising private clients on their legal affairs, including:
- moving home or buy-to-let investments;
- property development;
- making a will, power of attorney, and inheritance planning;
- probate and estate administration; and
- care of the elderly and management of their affairs in later life.
We enjoy working for our clients, getting to know them personally and providing the best possible legal advice.
