I recently dealt with the Probate team. I had no idea how any of Probate happened. Each step was fully explained with lots of patience and although they took the lead I always felt in control of proceedings. Thoroughly professional and very caring, Leon and Fran made my life so much easier! Thank you.
Client Review, July 2020

The Solicitors were kind and considerate and responsive to my needs in the wake of my dad’s death. I would recommend the firm to others.
Client Review, May 2020

I was very well satisfied as a Executor of an estate which was large and complex in the way Rix & Kay dealt with matters and the attention of the staff to matters was extremely good.
