A Very Professional Company to Deal With. Very helpful and reassuring from beginning to the end of my dealings with them. Jessica at the Lincoln office, answered my queries, assisted in completing my forms, nothing was too much trouble. I would not hesitate using them again. Many Thanks

Today we had a revisit from Phil Perchard who with both our daughters present helped to understand the complexity and explain the reasons for the decisions made when making our wills. We are all ready to sign now and have talked about an extra visit for Phil to look at preparing our daughters wills for them. Excellent service. Thank you

Would like to take this opportunity to say thank you to James for an excellent service regarding our query. He dealt with it in a very efficient and exceptionally quick manner.

Originally contacted in September 2022 and first correspondence received on 3rd October 2022. It is now 16th March 2023 and still have not received Lasting Poer of Attorney, Trustee Resolution or Wills for myself and my wife. Two phone calls have resulted in same response - extremely busy and sourced to outside agency. All monies have been paid up front for a very poor service. How much longer have I to wait?
Helpful Report
Service very slow takes months to process papers,you have to phone to find out what is happening, then you wait for a phone back which never happens. You eventually get a message for more ID nearly 9 months later. So no I don't rate this company very high and wish I had gone with another Company.

Dear Mrs Wright, The Will was emailed to you as promised. Please can you check your spam inbox just in case it's in there. We have also posted out to you a paper version as well. Kind regards, Town & Country Law
It is reassuring to know that a company is proving a service, which I believe we should all consider using. That is, to provide documents and legal arrangements, some that we might need and others that we will all one day need; those of later life and after our life. They are legal issues, which are sensible and need to be made now, not when we are not able to do so ourselves. It is not easy to think about old age and death but it is crucially important to do so now, when the needs can be addressed. I am pleased to recommend the services of this very personable organisation.

I paid just under 3k for my Will and POA on 6th December 2021. The paperwork came through but full of spelling mistakes. They got sent back, and revised ones arrived. The will documents came later but still spelling mistakes. So May 2022 I sent them back regarding the errors. Nothing happened, my file was probably left in a drawer somewhere. I got in touch in October, nothing happened. Again I got in touch in January 2023. Apparently I didn't sign a document. Well I sent it back and highlighted the fact that my name was wrong. Communication is bad. My file has been sitting on somebody's desk for over 8 months. Not good.

Dear Mrs P Morris. We are sorry about your experience and sincerely apologise for the typo errors. We have now put everything right for you, a director has visited your home at a weekend and helped you and the family sign off all the documentation correctly and he gathered all the required Identification documents. We have processed the Lasting Power of Attorney documents, paid the registration fees and sent those to the Office of the Public Guardian. The sign of a good company is a company that put things right for their clients if things do not go to plan. In this case we have gone above and beyond to help. As a gesture of good will we have also compensated you financially for the delays, some of which were beyond our control. Kind Regards, Town & Country Law
Spoke with the director of the company who put my mind at rest with the concerns I had, he explained about any delays which are obviously out of their control, good to have a friendly chat

The service was very good every step of the way. It was great to get our future finances sorted out. I'd recommend Town and Country if you decide to set up a will and trust.
Helpful Report
Had long delays with power of attorney being prepared but James contacted me to advise on progress. Hold ups caused by outside offices and not Town and Country and he has intervened to hurry completion for us. Attitude on phone very apologetic and concerned so hopefully waiting time will soon be over and problems resolved. Thanks to James for very quick response to delay concerns.

Advertise will for £47 but when the planner came to our house she rolled her eyes & said no will costs that unless you are a single person renting with nothing to leave, even then need to add VAT. She was patronising & said she's 'sick of explaining this'. My parent wanted to go ahead as true price, although considerably more, was still reasonable. Will needed several corrections to names,addresses and put grandson as a 'she'. No apology when reported the errors. Would advise to aviod, even if just for the lies about pricing

We contacted them in September 2021. Had consultation with Nick Munnings agreed what we wanted, wills, lpas and property trust. Had a few queries, he returned, we then received draft copies and still had some concerns. Nick failed to turn up to 2 appts so we contacted office in Feb 2020 and were told she would email him to make another appt. Haven't heard from then since and it is now 31st August 2020. Probably should not be surprised at that..what Company takes £1800 and doesn't help to iron out issues you have told them about. We have had 3 deaths in the past year due to terminal cancers, one quite recently, which is why we have not chased this up before. It has been a constant source of stress on top of an extremely stressful time. Anyway it looks as though we have nothing to show for our £1800 except a draw full of papers, feeling very let down and concerned as we were told recently that some of the paperwork may not infact do what we wanted which has left us more confused than ever with the way this company has acted with regard to us. Dates above should read 2022. UPDATE 01/09/2022. Was contacted this morning by James Scotney to discuss the concerns we have about the poor communication between us and his office. Have just spent a long time on the phone with him making things a little clearer and made a further appointment for Nick to return to help with a refresher on some of the paperwork. James was apologetic regarding the lack of communication, which is also down to us due to recent family bereavements, he explained alot and arranged a follow up which we hope will resolve the issues as we are happy with what we chose, Wills, Lpa's and Property Trust and he clarified that the Property Trust will meet our needs. Thank you James for your time, will be in touch.

We set up a couple of family probate trusts with TCL , we found the initial process very helpful having been explained what the trusts were all about etc. The actual setting up of the trusts was a bit of a prolonged process but that was mainly down to the land registry office , due to covid-19 and not TCL. Once completed we received our trust paperwork back and overall we were happy with the service we received from TCL. We were then contacted by TCL and notified about the requirement to register the trusts with HMRC. Initially we were left confused ? but after being contacted by the customer care manager Evonne, any issues or concerns we had were quickly sorted out,and TCL registered our trusts with HMRC in a quick efficient timely manner. Overall we found the process of setting up our trusts to be well handled with good customer services , and would be happy to recommend TCL to others.

Following my initial review I almost immediately received a telephone call from the MD - James Scotney. He fully updated us on the progress of our commission and it appears all was in order. Wills to be dispatched to us immediately. The Trust Documents still to be ratified by the Land Registry(this may take time as they have a large backlog) however as documents correctly signed and witnessed they were now live. Trust paperwork to follow in due course. The conversation with James has put our minds at rest and restored our faith in our decision to use this company. I have amended the star rating to five and would recommend the company to others. Roger Bishop

Excellent service for will writing. Very satisfied. Reasonably priced, professional and yes highly recommended.
Helpful Report
Very bad experience with getting the names of our children right. We corrected, yet corrections have again been ignored which is sloppy and worrying for legal oversight - not professional.
