Avoid really poor customer service when you need you need it the most.

Shocking company for customer service when you need it the most.
My mum stiored her will with wds and after she passed away it took 10 weeks to release her will. Even after many calls to wds. It made a very stressful time even more stressful.
No apology from this company just rude staff.
I had my will stored with them to which I now have asked to cancel 3 times unsuccessfully. They just keep sending me a cancellation letter over and over again.
I do not want my children having this stress if we pass.

Update wills & POA

Sean came to our house for meeting which meant we were at ease and could also get any info he required. No risk of having to send via email at later date or have another call.
Sean explained range of options and pros cons of each. Explained costs clearly and what services we’d receive for each.
Feel we’ve taken good step forward to protect ourselves and family.

A big thank you to Sean Baxter

A big thank you to Sean Baxter, sorted out wills for my husband & I and also helped sort out a will and power of attorney for our Mum. Great help and advice, it can be very confusing, Sean was very patient and informative, would definitely recommend WDS Associates.

WDS Associates were impressive

Sean from WDS Associates arrived promptly at our home within 5 minutes of the agreed time. There was a great deal of information to discuss regarding our Last Will & Testament, this took two hours. During this time, Sean worked diligently recording our wishes, whilst patiently taking time to explain the finer details and answering any questions. ... Well done Sean.
