Legacy Planning in Dorking
A considered approach to protecting your family's future
Dorking is a characterful market town set in a gap in the North Downs, surrounded by some of Surrey's finest countryside including Box Hill and Leith Hill. The town has a thriving independent spirit, with a weekly market, antiques quarter, and strong community bonds. Dorking attracts residents who value its semi-rural setting and period properties, many of which carry significant value. For families with roots in the Mole Valley area, estate planning offers the reassurance that their carefully chosen home and accumulated assets will be passed on according to their wishes.
