Solicitor feedback
My life was turned upside down 8 weeks ago, when I received a text to say my husband had been living a double life. This had gone on for at least 6 years! After getting in touch with Wolferstons, I was reassured that there was a way through this horrendous situation. One where I was advised that I could be financially looked after. This was very reassuring as I have MS and I am limited in my life. I had to retire early from work because of this. Everybody I had spoken to were very pleasant and approachable.This helped me to feel looked after. Thankyou.

Divorce
I had the immense privilege of working with Wolferstans, Catherine Wadland and Lizaine Arnold during one of the most challenging periods of my life - my divorce - and I cannot speak highly enough of their care professionalism and strength. From the very beginning Catherine and Lizaine bought not only their expertise but also a genuine empathy and understanding that made me feel heard supported and empowered. They navigate the complexities of the process with grace and clarity ensuring my needs and voice were never lost. Their guidance was more than just legal - it was deeply human. I will always be grateful for their unwavering support and safe respectful space they created for me to start to rebuild my life again with confidence. Saying thank you doesn't seem nearly enough. For they didn't just represent me, in so many ways they saved and carried me to a positive conclusion. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all you've done for me. I have no hesitation recommending Wolferstans, Catherine and Lizaine - as their services have been outstanding.
