The Paperwork People is a company set up by Sue Saines who saw a need in the local community for a more relaxed approach for certain legal services such as Wills, Powers of Attorney, Estate Administration support . She felt older people of the local community needed a place to go to help them solve day to day paperwork problems. The Paperwork People is that place, because that's just what they do. Life's important paperwork.
Sue's Story
“I used to be a solicitor and realised that many people felt intimidated coming into a traditional law firm partly because they thought they could not afford the fees but often because they felt uncomfortable with the formality. Many didn't need a lawyer, but just a bit of guidance and support to help them solve their own problem. So, wanting to put something back into my local community I left the legal world to set up the company to plug the gap in the market. I share my many years of experience and knowledge gained during my varied working life and put it under one roof. I like to call it a "Help Hub". My approach is informal and friendly and people can call in for a chat about their particular problem before it actually costs them any money.
I am also very proud to be a Fellow of the Institute of Professional Willwriters a self regulatory organisation constantly driving up standards, ethics and competency in the Willwriting market. As you would expect, I have professional indemnity insurance and follow the IPW Code of Pracrice which is recognised by the Chartered Trading Standards Insitute (CTSI)
Christina, my daughter joined me on the journey and studied whilst she worked and is also a full member of the IPW. She has become an integral part of the company and we work with other like minded people and often sign post our clients to other professionals such as solicitors, accountants, financial advisers and an HR specialists we know and trust. We are all about preventing problems from arising in the first place with careful thought and planning and our clients tell us they really like the way we do things because we feel like a safe pair of hand where they can come in and talk to someone”
