What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device — phone, tablet, or computer — when you visit. They are widely used across the web and serve a range of practical purposes, from keeping you logged in to understanding which pages people find most useful.

Cookies do not give us access to your computer or any personal information beyond what you choose to share. They simply help the website remember things — like your consent preferences — so you do not have to repeat yourself every time you visit.

In plain terms: A cookie is like a small sticky note your browser keeps on our behalf. The next time you visit, we can read that note to improve your experience.

Cookies We Use

Essential Cookies

Always Active

These cookies are necessary for the website to function. They handle things like remembering your cookie consent and maintaining basic security. The website cannot operate properly without them, so they cannot be switched off.

Examples: Cookie consent storage, session security tokens

Duration: Session or up to 12 months

Third-party access: None

Analytics Cookies

Optional

These help us understand how people use our website — which pages are visited most, where visitors come from, and how long they spend reading. This information helps us improve the site for everyone. All data is aggregated and anonymous.

Examples: Google Analytics (page views, session duration, traffic source)

Duration: Up to 2 years

Third-party access: Google LLC (anonymised)

Marketing Cookies

Optional

Marketing cookies allow us to show relevant content and advertisements to people who have previously shown interest in estate and inheritance legal services. If you opt out, you may still see ads, but they will not be tailored to your interests.

Duration: Up to 90 days

Third-party access: Google LLC, Meta Platforms (where applicable)

Preference Cookies

Optional

These cookies remember choices you make on the site — such as your language preference or display settings — so you do not need to reconfigure them each visit. Disabling them means the site will not remember your preferences between visits.

Examples: Language selection, display mode settings

Duration: Up to 1 year

Third-party access: None

Third-Party Cookies

Some of the cookies on our site are placed by third-party services we use. Each third party has its own privacy and cookie practices:

Google Analytics

Used to analyse site traffic. Data is anonymised and does not identify individual visitors. Governed by Google's Privacy Policy.

Meta Pixel (conditional)

May be used where advertising campaigns are active. Governed by Meta's Data Policy. Only active if marketing cookies are accepted.

Google Maps

An embedded map is used on our homepage to display our office location. Google Maps may set its own cookies subject to Google's terms.

We do not control the cookies set by third parties and recommend reviewing their respective policies for full details.

Cookie Duration

Session Cookies

These cookies exist only for the duration of your browser session. Once you close your browser, they are automatically deleted. They handle transient needs like maintaining your state as you navigate between pages.

Persistent Cookies

Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period after you close your browser — from a few days up to two years, depending on their purpose. Your cookie consent preference, for example, is stored as a persistent cookie so you are not asked repeatedly.
