Excellent service from start to finish. During such a sad and difficult time, it was reassuring to know that Kings Court Trust and our Personal Estate Manager were professionally and confidently dealing with our late dad's estate. Thank you for making the whole process bearable. Highly recommend Kings Court Trust.
