Absolutely. Most meetings take place by video, but you're welcome to visit our York office. Home visits are available for wills and LPAs.
We offer fixed fees for conveyancing, wills, LPAs, probate, uncontested divorce and settlement agreements. For disputes, we agree a budget for each stage so there are no surprises.
We don't hold a legal aid contract, but we can point you to firms that do. We also explain any funding options, such as legal expenses insurance, that might cover your case.

We store original wills free of charge in our secure deeds facility and record them on a national will register so your executors can find them.
