Frequently asked questions
A few of the things people often ask before getting started and if your question isn’t here, I’m always happy to help directly.
How long does it take to set everything up?
Most services are completed within a few weeks, depending on what’s required and how quickly documents are reviewed and approved.
Do I need to prepare anything before our first meeting?
Not usually — I’ll guide you on anything helpful to have, but the first conversation is simply about understanding your situation and priorities.
Can you work alongside my financial advisor?
Yes, I regularly work with advisers and accountants to ensure your planning is joined-up and aligned with your wider financial picture.
What areas do you cover?
I provide estate planning services across the North West of England, with in-person appointments available locally. I’m based in Crosby and also work with clients remotely where appropriate.
Is there any obligation after the initial consultation?
No — the initial consultation is free and without obligation, giving you space to decide what’s right for you.
How much do your services cost?
Costs depend on the service you need, but pricing is always explained clearly upfront so there are no surprises.
