Used their Wills and Power of attorney service. Trevor went through the process which seemed simple and clear. Paid the whole bill in full and upfront. They failed to tell us we had to pay more to register with the courts. Now a year later we still don't have our power of attorney. More...

Thank you for your review Elizabeth. Our team have now heard from you today that you have managed to pay the Court fees to the OPG after we chased matters up for you. We have emailed you privately about your comments which we all feel in our team are unfair but we are pleased that the matter is now resolved. We wish you the very best.

We were recommended Portcullis by a family friend and could not be happier with their service. We met Trevor in Exeter to sort out our finances, wills and power of attorney for my wifes mother. Trevor explained in depth information concerning trusts, what kind of wills we should have and the process for applying for power of attorney. We had to contact Trevor or Nick on numerous occasions afterwards and they could not have been more helpful in sorting out our problems. Although they are a small firm they are big on customer service and providing the correct advice. We highly recommend Portcullis to anyone needing independant legal advice and a friendly approachable firm you can rely on. More...

Sorting our Wills had been something that my partner and I had discussed for a while, but always kept putting it off.From the moment our enquiry was dealt with over the telephone, until the day we went in and signed our wills, the team at Portcullis were professional, explained everything in full (in simple terms) and their friendly approach makes the whole process extremely easy.

We came to Portcullis because they offer a free will writing service, in exchange for a donation to St Luke’s Hospice. What a lovely thing to do! The Portcullis team were extremely helpful and we received a professional will, setting out our wishes as discussed. When I need legal advice in the future, Portcullis will be my first stop. Thank you! More...

Being in the same industry I see many companies around the country via various training seminars and industry led meetings. I have to say Portcullis stands out like a shining star. Their professionalism their knowledge and their commitment to giving their clients quality advice, quality products and a quality service is to be admired. It is refreshing to see a company with the same values as ourselves operating so well. If I lived in this area, this is the company I would use. More...

Trustworthy : Efficient : Customer Focused
These three traits sum up my recent experience with Portcullis Legals. Having waited far too long to organise our wills, my husband and I met with Portcullis Legals to start, what we thought, would be a long winded, full of legal jargon, process.
How wrong we were! Certainly we had to answer lots of questions and needed certain aspects explained to us (in non legal jargon!), as well as explain our personal wishes, but this was the hardest the process got! It was so simple and we had the draft copies in our in-box a few days later for us to review. Once these had been agreed, we then went into the branch (out of our normal working hours - another nice touch from a business that prides itself on being different to the run of the mill legal profession), for the documents to be witnessed; and that was it!
I cannot recommend Portcullis Legals highly enough and, if like us, you are putting off writing your wills, take comfort in the fact that if you choose this trustworthy company, the journey will be efficient and customer focused from the outset!

First I want to say a big thank you to Trevor (CEO for Portcullis) for his help in writing my Will.
My Will was initially being prepared by a new junior member of Portcullis, but things were not progressing as they should.
The moment Trevor was alerted that there was a problem, he apologised profusely and immediately took over, anxious to resolve the situation. He could not have been more helpful, and really did go the extra mile to put things right. And very soon my completed Will was with me, all written to my satisfaction.
It's for certain that in ANY company, things DO sometimes go wrong but I think a company should not be judged by what went wrong, but by what they do to put things right, and in this instance Portcullis (Trevor) exceeded all expectations in a professional and friendly manner. Therefore I am more than happy to recommend Portcullis as (especially) in the unlikely event of a problem arising you can be confident that everything possible would be done to resolve it.

Trev has supported me for a number of years with a vast range of sensitive and personal issues regarding finances, wills and the aftermath of bereavement. He has always been highly professional, showing empathy and ensuring that any concerns or worries I have had during a highly emotive time have been dealt with smoothly and effectively. So many times he has said, "its all okay, I'll deal with it" and has never let me down. Highly recommended if you are looking for a service that has your best interests at heart. Thank you Trev and your team... the term "legend" comes to mind! More...
