TESTIMONIALS

My late parents dealt with NAWW lawyers to deal with their Will,they continued to help my late mother after my father passed away some 10yrs ago.

When my Mother passed away this year, I had trouble with a cheque that I received as part of the estate of my late mother, and communication could have been a long and complicated affair as my husband and I live in the UK. However NAWW solicitors found an alternative method of payment,communicating with us through emails and telephone, and within 24 hrs of them completing a bank transfer,the money was in our bank account. they have been very, very professional and truly ‘bent over backwards’ to help us throughout. We highly recommend this law company,and are happy to give them 5*
