Client feedback
Just a quick note to say how excellent James Walker has been in supporting me with making a will. As a wheelchair user there can be barriers to working with any organisation, in terms of the need to visit an office. James was massively supportive and worked with me on the phone and online, and also visited my home himself so I could physically sign the will. A very good and emotionally intelligent service from James, for which I am grateful.

Fantastic, friendly, and professional service in preparing my Will from James at Leathes Prior. Couldn’t have been more straight forward and made what is usually a sombre task a pleasure.
