Nelissa Hicks

“As a former solicitor of many years' standing, I have very high expectations when consulting solicitors as a client. Some years ago, Nelissa Hicks completed a very complex probate matter for us, so when we needed a probate solicitor again recently we were delighted that she was also available to act for us this time. She is extremely knowledgeable and skilled and always pays close attention to detail. She is also super-efficient and responsive, extremely personable, and she has boundless energy and enthusiasm for her work. Absolutely superb service - thank you so much!”

“Thank you for all your hard work with my Will and LPAs. You were so helpful and kind to me under the circumstances. You are both very professional and friendly and I would certainly recommend Rothera Bray and if I need any assistance in the future I will contact you. ”

“Nelissa Hicks dealt with our probate application for my mother’s estate. She was diligent, efficient and infinitely trustworthy. I appreciated her candour but she was also empathetic. I can’t recommend them enough.”

“We have received outstanding support from Nelissa Hicks and her team at Rothera Bray in Mapperley. She clarified all the steps required in processing the Lasting Powers of Attorney and progressed our application to the Office of the Public Guardian with no hiccoughs (that I understand can be a major hurdle). If you are looking for an efficient and competent solicitor in this field we would strongly recommend her.”

“I employed Rothera Bray and principally Ms Nelissa Hicks to assist with legal procedures required following a bereavement/probate involving private and complex international accounts. I have found the support and service I received exemplary, Nelissa has been not only efficient and thorough but also extremely empathetic and understanding during what was quite a stressful and upsetting time. I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Rothera Bray and Ms Nelissa Hicks and her colleagues for anyone requiring legal assistance and advice. Nelissa and her team helped navigate me through what was a very difficult and challenging time and I am very grateful to them.”

“Nelissa really stood out for us both; how she made planning for death seem a relatively pleasurable experience, I don't know. She was knowledgeable, experienced, switched on, efficient and great to deal with.”

“Our experience of working with Rothera Bray was extremely positive, especially in terms of their; expediency, professional approach, simple advice with difficult decisions, witnessing protocols and finishing the work to our chosen timescales even if that involved weekend working. Rothera Bray delivered exactly with the outcome we wanted within very short timescales, but also with an appropriately balanced vetting of our circumstances, there was a definite duty of care applied to the process. We would have no hesitation in recommending Rothera Bray, because their attention to detail and impartial advice to both parties in our joint will writing journey made the whole experience less stressful than it had been in the past. The final documents were clear and concise. Choosing a local family orientated firm was definitely the best choice for our needs given their personalised approach. ”

“I found Rothera Bray very easy to work with and enjoyed the personalisation of my relationship with Nelissa. I remain content that the work undertaken underpins my future personal security and was happy with the level of communication that kept me assured whilst the relevant government department got its act together.With nothing but good feelings toward the service given, I would be delighted to recommend Rothera Bray to friends and family.”
