GRAINGER APPLEYARD SECURES WILLS AND INHERITANCE QUALITY ACCREDITATION

Grainger Appleyard is this week celebrating its success in securing one of the first 100 places nationwide to receive the Wills and Inheritance Quality Scheme Accreditation, a scheme recently launched by the Law Society.

The Wills and Inheritance Quality Scheme is a new initiative that was first announced by the Law Society last year.  WIQS is designed to set apart firms which provide top quality services to their clients in the areas of will-writing, probate and estate administration.  The Law Society states that the scheme “sets client service standards to ensure transparency in process, costs and communications” and Grainger Appleyard has now proved that it consistently provides these standards.

Grainger Appleyard’s Wills & Estate department is very pleased to be one of the first few firms in England and Wales to earn its place on the Scheme.  Managing Partner at the firm, John Grainger, says “it is an excellent indication of the type of quality work that this firm undertakes and it gives me great satisfaction to be amongst the first to be accredited.”

More details about the Wills and Inheritance Quality Scheme and the WIQS Client Service Charter can be found on the Law Society’s website: http://www.lawsociety.org.uk/AboutWIQS   

The firm undertakes a variety of work in the areas of wills and inheritance, as well as providing advice on related matters such as lifetime tax planning, elderly issues, and powers of attorney.  Grainger Appleyard now holds a total of 6 accreditations across 5 departments; amongst the highest number in the Doncaster area. 

Grainger Appleyard also offers free half hour advice sessions and welcomes the opportunity to speak with members of the public about any matters for which they need legal advice or assistance.  Call 01302 327257 for more information.
