Who is Seeking Advice on Choosing a Family Solicitor?

Hi people,

I’m currently in need of a family solicitor to assist with some legal matters related to inheritance and estate planning within my family. This is my first time looking for a solicitor, and I’m unsure where to start. What qualities should I look for in a good family solicitor? Are there specific questions I should ask during consultations? Any recommendations on how to find a reliable solicitor specializing in family law?

Any advice or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance…

Make use of a reputable, local solicitor. Call them and find out how they handle problems.

When I called mine, they informed me that they had access to the documents and a complete tracker. After that, I could drop by whenever I needed to ask questions or sign documents. It was really simple. An additional benefit is that they were aware of the location of the house, and since we are accustomed to working with specific businesses for searches, it was easier.
