I engaged with Nadine Owens of Blacks to prepare my parents wills and LPAs. The service that Nadine offered was both professional and personable. Ultimately it was a very difficult situation for Nadine to deal with but she handled the whole process fantastically well, always on hand to provide advice and ensure that we were all updated every step of the way. I would have no issues in recommending Nadine and Blacks moving forward, based upon my experiences to date.

Lucy was incredibly helpful and efficient and it was all sorted and carried out effortlessly and in a friendly manner, which makes the whole situation far more bearable, especially for my Dad. Lucy is an obvious credit to your team.

I just wanted to say thank you for everything you have done for us. It was a great relief to me when you took on the probate for us and guided us through the process. In the past, we have always found Blacks extremely helpful and professional and this continued with sorting out my mum’s estate. Thank you so very much.

Outstanding service. Your technical knowledge, attention to detail and efficiency have been second to none and without it I am certain that we would not have achieved such a good outcome. The way you have dealt with me as a client has been sympathetic at a difficult time but also you have a friendly, professional and approachable manner meaning I felt I could talk to you about anything and have the confidence that you would have the right answers. I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending you to friends, family, colleagues and acquaintances.

 Nick was very prompt, polite, knowledgeable and patient. He offered us some great advice on how our new will could be drafted to maximise the benefit to our family, whilst taking the interest of our employees into consideration… Based on my experiences, I would have no hesitation in recommending Blacks to anyone looking for quality, efficient legal services.

I have recently been supported in a legal matter by Nick Rhodes of Blacks Solicitors. He has been professional, efficient and responsive throughout our interaction. His advice has been sound and invaluable through what is a very difficult ongoing process.

Lucy Rigden was outstandingly efficient and helpful.

I know nothing about the law. At times like these you need a solicitor who can explain so as to enable a client to make intelligent, rational decisions with appropriate advice. Lucy did all of this for me.
