Testimonials

This week has been a foretaste of life as an old person and it wasn't great but seeing you was a spirit booster for sure.

Thank you again and as always for your help, patience and understanding whilst holding our hands through the minefield of legalities, we knew nothing of that world and you were the perfect guide!


Mr & Mrs D

We are so pleased that we contacted Stallard March & Edwards and are delighted with everything that has been undertaken on our behalf. An essential requirement for the family at a difficult time is trust; knowing that you are working with people who understand your needs and circumstances and who can deliver in a sympathetic and professional manner. Stallard March & Edwards offered us just that. Thank you.

Mr S, Worcester

Thank you very much for your help in explaining the current legal position regarding wills, trustees and powers of attorney so clearly and for drawing up the appropriate documents.

Mr G, Worcester

Spoke to Florence [Goodwin]... one of the most straightforward and delightful conversations I’ve ever had with a lawyer! Bloody marvellous!

I would recommend anyone to use SME when a solicitor is needed. Pleasant staff, and the work is done top standard.

Florence Goodwin was very helpful in all that she has done for me. I was pleased with her work. I wish her all the best in the future.

Extremely good service as I was using the Free Will option. First meeting was at the Cathedral. This includes a donation to a charity.


Mrs L

It has been a privilege to be helped and advised by SME Solicitors with whom I have been associated with for some years and expect to be in the future - professional and caring at all times. Florence Goodwin and her team have given me much needed support, empathy and advice over a significant period of time.


Mr W

Very efficient and promptly dealt with our business.

Excellent service received from Florence while making my Will. Would not hesitate to use them again. My experience was excellent, first class.
