Highly recommend Roche Legal services. Smooth, stress-free experience.
Roche Legal set up Wills & Powers of Attorney for our family. They acted promptly, efficiently & fully executed our requirements. Despite restrictions imposed by Covid, the experience was stress free and easy. Roche legal staff are experienced and friendly.
Putting our affairs in order had been on our to-do list for some time, having now completed the formalities we feel relieved that this is in place for the ease & benefit of our family. Roche Legal were recommended to us by several friends, including other solicitors in different fields. we, in turn, would happily recommend them to others.
Wonderful service
We have used Roche Legal for many years. Mostly with regards to will writing. The family feel that they have always been attentive and professional.
Latterly, Clare, has been dealing with a very complex issue relating to an inheritance from someone domiciled abroad. We always feel undated and considered throughout this matter
