Probate requests up at Taylor & Emmet
Law firm Taylor & Emmet has reported a 59 per cent increase in probate cases at its Dronfield, Derbyshire, office.
The probate team at Taylor & Emmet said the number of cases requesting the production of wills, along with advice about tax, trust and power of attorney issues had more than doubled in 2011.
Diana Smart, head of Taylor & Emmet's probate team, said: "We are extremely pleased to see such encouraging performance figures for work in Dronfield. The firm is committed to raising its profile in the area and our efforts are clearly paying dividends for probate.
"We are continually looking for innovative ways to make our services more convenient to people outside the city boundaries and the feedback we receive from clients using the Dronfield office is that the ease of access and high quality advice on offer is an attractive alternative to a city centre firm."
Taylor & Emmet opened its office in Dronfield in January 2008, giving it a presence in North East Derbyshire for the firs time.
