This was obviously a very difficult time for my family and me. Stibbards were simply excellent and were almost like close friends who really cares. I have lost count of how often my requirements changed but the firm accommodated every request and anticipated many. I would like to particularly thank Louise Grove in the Hockley office who showed great consideration and flexibility to accommodate our wider family visiting from Ireland, as well as the many visits I wanted to make to my dear departed wife
