Could your firm do with some help, guidance or assistance in all matters relating to Wills, Probate, Trusts & Tax?
If you are a law or accountancy firm or a STEP member and need a second opinion or specific advice on a particular client matter I would be pleased to help. I can also provide more generic advice on a point of law better knowledge of which could benefit your firm in the long term.
I set up Gill Steel Law Practice in January 1996, specialising only in Wills, Probate, Trusts and Tax. From the outset the firm has specialised in advice to private client departments in my specialist areas.
I qualified as a solicitor in July 1983 and currently I act as a consultant to Blake Lapthorn. I am a member of the Law Society's Wills & Equity Committee, STEP's UK Probate & Estates Committee and the Association of Taxation Technicians.
Trying to keep up to date with the changes in legislation and trying to resolve difficult client matters can be testing and time consuming. By outsourcing your technical queries in my specialist areas of Wills, Probate, Trusts and Tax you will have legal technical assistance at your fingertips.
If you would like to consult me, my working practice is along the following lines:

My office will then respond with Terms of Business and if necessary, a request for any further information required to provide advice and a fee estimate.
A quotation is then submitted for your review which includes the estimated fee and the timescale involved and on receipt of your authority to proceed the matter will be placed in our system. We will always do our best to respond in the quickest time feasible. I do however, deal with all matters on a strictly first come first served basis.
