Pat Gibney

Once again, superb advice and wise counsel from Leathes Prior - this time a shout out for Patrick Gibney who has efficiently dealt with drafting our Wills in a most professional manner.

Pat was very helpful, kind, compassionate and professional. I was very grateful for his help and support at a very difficult time for me.

I wanted to thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for your support, kindness and empathy towards me during the time we have been “together “ sorting out the nightmare situation I found myself in. I’ve had a hard few years but Pat Gibney and Maggie Berry have helped me through dealing with a tough time, thank you does not feel adequate.

Following the death of a family friend whose Will I was an Executor, I requested that Leathes Prior Solicitors acted as my legal representatives for the purpose of the estate administration. I had had contact with Mr Gibney four years ago previously when I had needed legal guidance with regards to this friend estate , the advice given was practical and sound. Throughout the process of estate administration I was always kept up to date and informed off the process at every stage.

Pat completed probate for us, and was fantastic. It wasn't an easy one as there were some complicated elements that come to light along the way, but throughout he was communicative, and efficient in getting the process completed. He was also extremely thorough throughout the whole process. I cannot recommend highly enough.

5 stars for 5 star service! THANK YOU, Patrick Gibney for your help and support.

Pat's help and assistance with my Will and the process involved was very much appreciated. The process itself was very smooth, with various options offered to me for contact and discussions from face to face meetings, video conferences to telephone calls at my convenience. Pat himself was very friendly and easy to talk to, whilst also of course being very professional throughout. I would be more than happy to recommend both his and Leathes Prior's services.

I would also like to thank you for your excellent service throughout. I must apologise that we made it far more complicated than you were probably expecting, changing our minds about the various charities etc. but you were very patient with us, plus also advising us of the various ramifications that may arise. I am delighted that I know we have you to turn to should the circumstances arise where we need help at some point in the future. With David's help in our conveyancing needs, and yours with our future estates, I believe we are in excellent hands, and I look forward to a long association with Leathes Prior into the future.

Pat Gibney could not have been kinder, and more helpful and professional… A very nice man and a great solicitor… Thanks so much. Jan and David Austin.

Our experience with Pat was very positive. He listened carefully with our wishes and provided us with detailed guidance on legal options based on our individual and joint requirements. Throughout he was engaging and following our meeting provided us with written information for us to give consideration to prior to subsequent meetings to finalise our wills. His manner and approach throughout the process gave us clear overview of matters we should individually and collectively give consideration to. Explanation of legal terminology was clear enabling us to grasp understanding appropriate to our needs. Follow up meetings and emails provided clarity until both draft wills were sent to us for signing and returning. With our experience, we would have no hesitation in making recommendation of Patrick to family and friends requiring wills.

Pat was incredibly helpful being both skilled in and understanding of what I was needing to do. Thank you so much.

Pat Gibney of Leathes Prior, has dealt with a power of attorney matter on behalf of my sister and me. Pat showed great care and compassion for our situation at a very sad time for our family. Pat was very knowledgeable, professional, and responded very quickly to our calls or emails. Without Pat’s expertise and resilience, I dread to think how long this matter would have taken to resolve. Thank you Pat

Just a little thank you for the help and support that you have given me over the past two years. Your rational approach, patience and soothing voice was much appreciated.

Leathes Prior were recommended to me, and the level of service I have received has been excellent throughout. Pat Gibney’s communication has been outstanding. I never once had to chase for updates, which made dealing with my late brother’s estate so much easier during a very difficult time. Everything was handled with professionalism, care, and efficiency. Because of the excellent service we received, my husband and I later asked Pat to prepare our Wills. Once again, the process was completed very quickly, and everything was explained to us clearly and thoroughly, giving us complete peace of mind. I am so pleased that Leathes Prior were recommended to me. My sincere thanks to Pat and his colleagues for their consistently excellent service.

I'm writing to pass on some positive feedback once more, this time for Patrick Gibney. I needed to update my Will and lasting power of attorney following my recent separation. I'd just like to say Pat has been absolutely brilliant - helpful and patient with my queries, perfectly clear in his guidance, efficient in his work and indeed very kind and thoroughly pleasant during a difficult time.
