The 'very friendly and approachable' team at Harding Evans LLP provides an 'impeccable level of service' to local clients across a broad range of lifetime planning matters, including will and LPA drafting, as well as the administration of estates. The tone is set by 'very skilled and knowledgeable' team head Laura Selby, whose 'empathetic, friendly and professional' nature is appreciated by clients, including high-net-worth-individuals, on conventional lifetime planning matters, as well as in her capacity as a professional Deputy for Court of Protection work. The firm also continues to grow its presence in Cardiff, with 'exceptional' senior associate Afonwy Howell-Pryce being pivotal to that office's success, as a result of her 'excellent advice on wills and powers of attorney and estate administration', which often sees her 'going above and beyond' in the service of the client.
