A difficult subject simplified.

Hayley explained every step of our will and PoA writing in full and in a way that made everything easy to understand. It was a pleasure to welcome her into our home. We have since recommended her to others who are also very satisfied with the whole process.

I wholeheartedly recommend hHayley Wikner of Hawthorne Wills Ltd who kindly attended to my will and powers of attorney....

I was very fortunate in that my accountant introduced me to Hayley.

She guided me through the process of making my will and powers of attorney from beginning to end.

She guided me through each stage with a very friendly and professional approach throughout,, and was punctilious in attending to all details ensuring I was able to keep my executors and attorneys in the loop throughout.

The cost was very reasonable, especially takng into account that all documents were fully tailored to my individual needs.

I am very grateful to her and have no hesitation in recommending her without hesitation or any reservation.

Thank you very much, Hayley

Hayley

Hayley, was / is compassionate, sympathetic, understanding and had answers for questions before I asked for them. I have to say my old lawyers wanted a huge difference in price. So Hawthorne Wills are very good value indeed. I have already started recommending them to friends and neighbours. The whole process was overcome weeks to get all the information. The whole time Hayley was very communicative.

Finally got round to writing my will after thinking about it for 10 years!! Hayley was professional, friendly, patient and explained everything really clearly. She made the process very straightforward and stress free. I feel a great sense of accomplishment and relief knowing that everything is all in order. I can’t recommend Hawthorne Wills highly enough.

Friendly yet professional

We have just written mirror wills with Hayley guiding us. She was friendly, yet professional and made sure that we understood each step of the process.
Hayley took time to answer all our questions and kept us up to date via email at every step along the way. Would definitely recommend.

Great will advice and service

The process of working with Hayley was seamless as she took the time to clearly explain what it would entail and was very responsive to all my queries. With her advice, I now have a good will in place, and I'm reassured that I’ve made the right provisions for my family. I highly recommend their service.

Hayley made it easy

Hayley made everything easy to understand and simple. Never really thought having a will but after a little chat with Hayley she explained why one is important and after my mother in law passed, I agree.
Hayley came to my house was friendly, polite and professional, we said what we wanted and she explained lots of things that we didn’t even think about.
I’m happy we made a will, and I’m happy with Hayley. I would definitely recommend.

I would recommend Hawthorne Wills to anyone

Deciding on what to put in your Will and LPA's can be daunting, and to a certain extent very emotional. We are reminded of our own mortality. Hayley came to my home and the entire procedure was stress free. She was very professional, calm and understanding and I felt very much at ease. Everything is now signed and completed and hopefully will not be needed for many years to come! I would have no hesitation in recommending Hayley to anyone.

Working with Hayley has been a simple…

Working with Hayley has been a simple and stress free process. Hayley was patient, dilligent and understanding about our needs, helping us create a will that was specific to our requirements, whilst protecting my family's interests. Being local and easy to contact is another plus. I look forward to working with Hayley in the future and would highly recommend Hawthorne Wills to anyone who needs succession and estate planning services.

Importance of a Will

Myself and my husband needed to get our old wills re-written fairly quickly due to ill health. We also needed to do our LPA’s. Hayley came to our home and went through everything with us in detail, was very patient, guided us through the process and answered all our questions. Once we had agreed it all the paperwork was sent to us to complete. She was in constant touch with us advising us of each step. Hayley made the whole process easy and seamless she was extremely professional friendly and informative and really helped us through this difficult process we are so grateful that we found Hawthorn Wills and would highly recommend them. Thankyou

Updating of Wills Exceeded Expectations

My husband and I recently married and we both needed to update our wills. Hayley was recommended to me through a networking group who spoke very highly of Hawthorne Wills Ltd.
Ours were a bit more complicated as both married before and also both had children from our respective first marriages.
Through out the whole process Hayley was extremely patient, caring and understanding to ensure that our wills reflected our decision making. I was extremely grateful that Hayley had so much professional knowledge that did make us reflect and act accordingly.
I would highly recommend Hayley.

Hayley made the entire experience…

Hayley made the entire experience painless! We kept putting off getting a will made (I don’t know why!) because once it was done it was an easy process. Hayley knows her stuff and and is empathetic and caring. If you’re thinking of doing one, just do it!

Highly efficient, thorough and friendly

Hayley was amazing and efficient putting together our Lasting Powers of Attorney and reviewing our complicated wills.

Hayley is thorough, researching everything, and made the whole process seamless and easy.

I highly recommend her to anyone in need of help with their wills or powers of attorney.
