Testimonials

We know the service we provide to our clients is committed to being efficient and friendly and aimed towards obtaining the best treatment and compensation possible but don’t just take our word for it here are some comments from our past clients.

A well deserved Thank You to Chris Thomas for his never ending patience and masterful guidance through the making of our Wills. Not an easy task due to living in one place and having assets in different countries, matrimonial complexities houses and assets
He has always been on call for us. Nothing was ever too much trouble (and boy we had some problems to solve ). Chris steered us through the intricate world of bureaucracy and taxation and made it so easy for us

We would recommend Chris unequivocally to any one in our situation or simply making out a Will

We would highly recommend Chris Thomas to help you sort out everything you need to know about setting up your personal wills. What can be a very stressful time when it comes to needing a will he made very clear and straightforward

Before detailing Chris’s professional abilities, I would like to state that he is an exceptionally pleasant person to deal with. This makes resolving any matters of law much easier.
I was put in touch with Chris about 3 years ago as I needed to review and change my U.K. Will. He quickly understood my situation and desires and was able to put these into a new Will that he produced in short order. In the past I have had dealings with lawyers who have taken unacceptable lengths of time to produce a result! Chris just gets on with it.
Once the Will was signed, he then ensured that it was lodged with a company that will administer the Will as and when I pop my clogs! This company have transparent and reasonable charges for this service which is far better than leaving it in the hands of a lawyer where charges seem anything but transparent.
Last year I needed help in removing a Charge that I had on my ex-wife’s property and which I no longer wanted to keep. I had asked for legal help on this some years ago from another U.K. lawyer who made the situation so complicated that I did nothing about it. Chris did all the necessary research into this situation and, again in short order, produced a resolution.
I have no hesitation in recommending Chris as an extremely competent lawyer in the field of U.K. law.

You carried out my will request with good guidance and well-honed experience. Sadly I missed being a corporate millionaire but with what assets I do have you advised me wisely on their management.
I think we had a good understanding and there was nothing I would wish to change. Maybe an annual follow-up, phone chat, on matters which could have arisen could be a good move?
Anyway in summary a well satisfied 77-year-old corporate pensioner

Before I met with you I was a nervous wreck! I couldn’t sleep, nor eat properly and was worried the whole time.When we met you immediately put me at ease and made me feel comfortable. This is unusual as I find it difficult to trust anyone. You did exactly what you said you would do and spoke to me strongly (which I needed to be told) telling me to “stop worrying”. That you would take over whatever was needed at the time. I know I can do that now!

We were very satisfied with the service we received. Everything was explained to us and our questions answered fully. We think it would be useful to clarify and support the reasoning why the wills do not need to be notarised and translated here in Portugal. The reason for this comment is that there is so much speculation and scare-mongering around these days, particularly on Social Media, that we believe people need hard facts from the source at the outset of their undertaking..

Your service provided us with clear information and all our questions were dealt with. E mails were replied to promptly and you were very flexible when making appointments. Documentation provided was clear and concise. I can’t think of anything else that you could have done better and were extremely helpful when I had the problem with my direct debit for will storage.

What I liked about your service in making my Will was that it was friendly and comprehensive. There is nothing I feel that you could have done any better. As to what else you could do you could start by getting a round of drinks in 😊😊

Your service for writing my Will was quick, thorough, with great explanation and advice.
I don’t think you could do anything better, I am very happy with your professionalism. My eldest daughter has a copy as well as myself obviously, and we both believe it fits my wishes.
Many thanks for providing me with an excellent service. I would definitely recommend you.

Very personal, professional and found solutions for our individual situation. Easy and good communication. The only thing that could have perhaps been done better was a summary email perhaps with final details and relevant links or contact information. We enjoyed working with you! Sam and Alex Dumigan

Service was prompt and when required, understandable with no fuss. As to what you might do better you could work pro bono 🤤 Seriously Chris I was fully satisfied with the service received.
If you’re agreeable I would be more than happy to refer you to friends and neighbours who may need help and advice.

Very professional with a personal touch. It made me feel comfortable on the decision I made to have you prepare my will. Even when things did not go right with the OPG you were there. For me your service has been excellent. Please keep doing what you do now.

Not only did Chris write our new wills in a thoroughly professional manner, he also removed my apprehension I felt regarding talking to a member of the legal profession by explaining things patiently and thoroughly. I would recommend Chris unconditionally.
