Jane was / has been excellent. We were recommended to Jane by a friend who had recently worked with Jane / JC Independent to complete their wills. My wife and I were invited by Jane for an initial meet and greet to assess / understand our circumstances and objectives. This was very helpful in explaining and understanding the approach and options. Following this my wife and I attended a full session with Jane to run through our details and Will requirements. At the at same time we also com

I used Jane Cassell because I had 3 x recommendations for her services after posting a request for will writing services on a local help website. I visited her quite soon after making contact with her. She went to great lengths to fully explain the pros & cons of what I had asked her to do with a will & 2 x LPAs. She made me aware of the overall costs of these services. The work was completed exactly on schedule & payment made at that time. I would certainly use her services again if needed

Jane Cassell was very helpful at every stage of writing our Wills. We had an initial telephone call when she outlined the process and advised of the fees, then suggested questions we should consider and the documents we should bring to the first meeting if we decided to proceed. This was followed by a meeting to discuss our requirements in details with Jane asking pertinent questions to capture all the information and suggest how best to achieve our objectives. The Wills were ready for us to sig

We consulted JC Independant for advice on two wills. The first was relatively straightforward and completed quickly and easily, while the second was a much more complex situation. We were given clear information about the choices available to us and, after discussion, were then referred on to a specialist will writing firm to deal with our particular situation. The professionalism and handling of our cases was outstanding and we were treated in a friendly and empathetic manner, making a very pos

Jane has made the process of completing our Wills and Lasting Powers of Attorney simple and straightforward. All of our questions were answered and everything was clearly explained clearly. Jane gave us great advice, treated us with warmth and professionalism and made the whole procedure painless. We have already recommended Jane to several family members.

 

 
 Reviewed by Heather NEILSON-Bonini on 5 January 2019

Mrs Cassell gave a very clearly broken down explanation of the components and possible components of a will. This was very important to me as I had only a vague idea of what a will consists of. She also asked a lot of questions to ensure that I considered the many possibilities where a will might be opened other than death, and what the consequences might be. Many many scenarios that I had not considered were raised, all of which were important to the final will.

 

 
 Reviewed by Don Marshall on 10 November 2018

Very clear, sensitive and considerate handling of the requirements for our wills. Jane took as long as was necessary and suggested appropriate changes and additions. Final documents extremely clear and well explained (including written clause-by-clause description). No edits necessary on the review. This experience was so much better than any other solicitor we have engaged with. We would recommend Jane to anyone.

 

 
 Reviewed by Elizabeth Pearson on 16 October 2018

I have been aware for some time that part of being a responsible person is about making sure things are in place to take care of the people I leave behind when I die – to make things as simple and clear as possible. Jane has provided an excellent and professional service arranging my will and lasting powers of attorney, for an incredibly reasonable fee. The purpose behind what Jane does and who she is a person supported me to make this important and I am very grateful for this.

I found Jane on the IPW website as I was looking for someone to help my wife and I begin to organise our estate. I called Jane and she kindly spent over an hour on the phone with me (free of charge) discussing our situation. She put my mind at ease very quickly which meant that my wife and I were happy to meet with Jane to put pen to paper. We met with her face to face (free of charge) again for a couple of hours where we formalised all of our requirements. She answered all of our questions dili

 Reviewed by Irene Hughes

I had known Jane from a previous law firm where I had worked for 22 years, so when my husband and I decided to make our Wills she was my first choice. I knew Jane had an expert knowledge of Will-writing and she explained everything to us in a language we could understand. She was also kind and helpful to my husband who has no experience of legal documents and went through everything clearly with him.
