"Reliable and ultra-organised, Fiona Gilbert is my “go to” person for a wide range of situations where it’s impractical or not cost-effective for Simpson Millar’s Private Client team to undertake arrangements. Fiona is a superb project manager whom I would highly recommend."
Sian Thompson, Simpson Millar Solicitors
"Fiona is a person whom I have always found to be of the utmost integrity, is efficient and wholly trustworthy. I have found her services invaluable, particularly, but not limited to, situations where there are no family or friends to do any essential but time-consuming running around."
Carole Gibbs, Newtons Solicitors
"I have referred matters to Fiona on a number of occasions and remain impressed with the speed and efficiency with which she can handle matters. The services she provides allows my clients peace of mind and provides cost efficiency whilst allowing the administration of my estates to be progressed as quickly as possible."
