“Lindsey Rawson gave us very valuable and highly professional advice about the writing of our wills, which had some complexities due to international assets. She maintained her approachability and sense of humour in the face of our constant questions and queries. As a result, we can strongly recommend her and Howells as a place to get advice and support. Thank you, Lindsey.”
“It was a pleasure to deal with Lindsey. She was very understanding of our requirements and fully explained when we were unsure.”
” Lindsey explained everything thoroughly in layman’s terms and also forewarned me about the long waiting list before my application got to court (this was a court issue and not Lindsey’s). Even during the long wait, I was kept up to date with proceedings, communication was brilliant. I found Lindsey to be extremely professional yet very approachable and friendly, she certainly took the angst out of the situation. As a result, I have no hesitation in recommending Lindsey/Howells and would certainly use them again.”
“Comfortable from day one and confident with the guidance given. We felt we had a good rapport throughout the procedure which gave us the necessary insight to commit our thoughts to paper.”
