Executries

Our fees are calculated on an hourly rate of £275 + VAT per hour and we will normally render a fee every three months for the work done in that period. This means that you only pay for the work which is actually done and are not charged a percentage of the value of assets irrespective of the cost of encashing, selling or transferring them. Our files are fee’d up by an independent Law Accountant so that you can be sure that the fee is a fair reflection of the work done.

I would like to express my gratitude towards you for the professional, courteous, efficient, and helpful manner in which you conducted yourself within the business of dealing with myself and the sale of my property. You are a credit to yourself and the people that you represent.

It is always an absolute pleasure dealing with Lisbeth-Ann.  She is always friendly and attentive whilst being professional and thorough.  I would not hesitate to recommend her.

Barbara has been absolutely fantastic in drawing up our wills. She was the perfect combination of understanding our requirements alongside challenging our thinking to ensure we now have much more robust plans in place for our estate. It has given us both peace of mind knowing things are in order and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her services and that of ELP.

Bob, a huge thank you for all your help and advice through my house buying journey!  You made it much easier than I had feared and I am extremely grateful.

I recently used E.L.P. when I sold a bungalow and purchased a flat. I was very impressed with the level of service and would have no hesitation in commending the company to future clients. Communications were efficient at all times and matters responded to very quickly. The financial transactions were all done within an hour of the completion time and my bank account credited.

It was a pleasure to do business with E.L.P.

We are a firm of Consulting Engineers with 30 staff. Over the years we have used the services of Duncan McFadzean of ELP on a number of occasions. As well as advising us on updating our Conditions of Employment to keep us up to date with the ever changing legislation we have also used his services in connection with redundancy and disciplinary matters. The advice we have been given has always been excellent. It is a great comfort to us to have this level of professional support readily available at the end of the phone.
