‘I have been very satisfied with the advice and service I have received from all members of the team. ’
‘I am currently instructing Kerri Woodrow (a partner in HCR Hewitsons) in an estate where I am one of the executors. I have known Kerri for many years and know her to have excellent knowledge of the issues involved. In addition, Kerri offers very practical advice and has quickly established an excellent working relationship with my co-executor and myself.’
