Wills, Probate & Lasting Powers of Attorney
Over the years we’ve helped hundreds of satisfied clients with matters of Probate, Wills, Tax Planning, Lasting Powers of Attorney and general legal services.
Our team understands the sensitivity surrounding this area and has your best interests at heart.
We pride ourselves on the fact that the majority of our clients have remained with us for many decades, which speaks volumes about our ability to provide an effective and thorough service.
We are proven in handling all matters relating to future planning, including Powers of Attorney, trusts, estate administration and Will drafting.
It is our top priority to deliver a highly personal level of service and real attention to detail that ensures nothing is left to chance.
A Will allows you to set out your wishes following your death.
Making a Will gives you certainty and allows you to make decisions about things like:
- Who you would like to look after your children in the event of your death.
- What your wishes would be in terms of your funeral
- Which charities you would like to donate to from your estate.
- What specific, monetary or other gifts (known as legacies) you would like to give to specific people on your death.
- What you would like to happen to your estate, i.e., everything you own after gifts, donations and debts, on your death.

“Rachel was very professional and put me at my ease during a very difficult time. I felt confident that my mother’s estate was being dealt with in the best way possible”
Anonymous Client - Re: Rachel Hanson - Private Client Associate
“I chose Walker Foster from a few that I contacted by telephone, because the person I spoke to was friendly, helpful and very informative. Every visit I have since made to your offices have been events to look forward to; I have always left feeling that everything I wanted to know had been addressed. With regard to Mrs Rosie who dealt with my business, I could not have asked for a nicer or more helpful person. She made everything simple, and even removed a problem that I didn’t think would be something she would have knowledge of. A couple of other times, in the past, when I have had dealings with solicitors I haven’t felt they were totally on my side. Bridget was 100% on my side.”
Anonymous Client - Re: Bridget Rosie - Wills and Probate Executive
“Can I pass on my sincere thanks and appreciation for the work Bridget Rosie has carried out for me since the death of my wife last December. Bridget displayed a wonderful blend of professionalism, awesome knowledge, warmth, friendliness and humour. She took so much weight off my shoulders when it came to winding down and closing much of my wife’s estate that I would have broken under the strain had it not been for her. I know that I am also speaking for my daughter who was able to attend two of the meetings with Bridget. Indirectly, Bridget helped her as well because my daughter was secure in the knowledge that her mother’s affairs were in very capable hands and that I would not be worrying about them.”
