Brighton District Probate Registry reviews

This place is an absolute joke, been waiting nearly a year, probate certificates came back then solicitor found mistakes and had to send back and was told it will go back into circulation with no fast track option. These people think …

Be careful when having your bag searched by security here!! My mum had money stolen from her purse today by the security guard when he searched her bag behind a panel. We are filing a complaint.

Linda and Meg were lovely to deal with. Very helpful and friendly. My experience very positive. Cant thank them enough.
