All the staff that we have had contact with at Porter Dodson (Yeovil/Taunton branches) have been efficient and provided a good service. Danielle Luke dealt with a complicated case of a Removal of Trustee for us. Any queries were dealt with promptly, communication was clear and the legal jargon was decoded for us. Special thanks to Chris Green for his help on this matter.
