“Hi my name’s Gemma and I’m the managing director of Candid Wills.
I started working as a Will and Estate Planning Consultant in 2006. I worked for a large nationwide company that always put the client’s needs and excellent personal service at the forefront of everything it did. I was soon asked to also train as a will writer and before long I was helping to train new members of staff, handling daily technical queries from other will writers and recognised as a Senior Will Writer and Senior Estate Planning consultant within the company.
I sat my will and estate planning exams and qualifications via both The Will writing academy (through the Institute of Professional Will Writers) The College of Will writing (through the Society of Will Writers) and I also have a diploma in Financial Planning. My husband Mr Duke McDonald sat his exams for Will Writing and Consulting through the Institute of Professional Will Writers and we made the decision to leave the company we were working for and set up Candid Estate Planning Ltd.
Candid Estate Planning Ltd was founded in 2015 and has already built an excellent reputation as a trusted and highly recommended company for clients' Will and Estate planning needs, in and around Lincolnshire. We are happy to receive great testimonials from our existing clients and over 50% of the work we do is due to referrals from our existing clients. I hope we can have the privilege of also bringing peace of mind to you and your loved ones, in the near future.”
