I can’t thank Jackie enough for helping me to deal with my late husband’s Estate. From our first meeting she has been very professional but at the same time very approachable and friendly. She listened and she understood my needs and dealt with the situation in a prompt and effective manner that made that difficult period easier for me to cope with.
