Testimonials

"My wife and I required new mirror wills and contacted mfg Solicitors to carry out or instructions as they had undertaken this task many years before. 

Our Solicitor (Sophie Shakeshaft) gave us sound advice and carried out the whole process in a way which was understandable to us. In our opinion we received a very professional service in an approachable and friendly manner. We would certainly recommend Sophie and mfg to anyone requiring legal services."
