Jane Whitfield ​​​​ Solicitor

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Jane at GloverPriest for their outstanding work, professionalism, and kindness. Their understanding was especially appreciated during times when I must have asked what might have seemed like rather 'silly' questions. Throughout a stressful period, particularly concerning the Declaration of Trust, Jane always provided thorough and thoughtful advice, regardless of how busy they were. When I instructed Jane, I hoped for complete support, and I received far more than I expected. I highly recommend Jane and would certainly use GloverPriest again. Thank you once again for everything—your help was truly brilliant.

Excellent across the board.

We had reason to sort out our life admin.. Will and LPAs. It wasn’t easy to find a solicitor with the right feel we were looking for. It seems that for the most part the traditional ‘family solicitor’ has disappeared! Online searches just found big legal corporations with what felt impersonal to us. We didn’t want an 0800 legal service. Then I saw gloverpriest and in particular Jane our solicitor. Family feel service. Feels traditional and not like a will writing service you can find anywhere. Offices are easy to locate with nearby parking. Friendly reception guy, Alex, welcomed us in. We spent way longer than I expected sorting it out as I kept asking questions. Jane was super patient and at no time indicated that I should hurry up, which I probably should have. I really appreciated the service she offered and left feeling that everything had been tidied and was complete. First class service delivered by a first class solicitor.

Dear Karen, Thank you for your feedback. We’re delighted to hear that you found the right “family solicitor” feel with GloverPriest, and particularly with Jane. It’s wonderful that she was patient, approachable, and took the time to answer all your questions without ever making you feel rushed. We’re also pleased that the welcoming atmosphere, convenient location, and friendly reception made the experience even more positive. Preparing Wills and LPAs is an important step, and it’s reassuring to know you felt comfortable and well supported throughout. Your recommendation is greatly appreciated.

I and the other Trustees are eternally grateful for the time and effort that Jane and the team put in to obtain the Transfer. Thank you Jane and the team!

Just brilliant

I had to protect part of my late Aunts' interest in a property & Jane Whitfield was just amazing. She was extremely helpful, knowledgeable & knew exactly what to do, with the minimum of fuss. She inspired confidence from the outset, keeping me informed throughout the process. A total joy to do business with & I would have no hesitation in recommending Elite Law Solicitors.

There are so many positive things I would like to say about Barret & Co. For me to do that would take too long. I will say, however, that Barrett & Co provided a first class service that resulted in a very positive & successful outcome . The service we received was akin to the service you would expect from a large city solicitor. If you are looking for a professional efficient multi discipline solicitor ,then I strongly recommend that you look no further. Thank you Barrett & Co ,with a special thank you to Jane Whitfield, for all that you have done for us & for taking away all the worry.

We used Barrett and Co for probate and conveyancing. Jane, Emma and Piers were absolutely outstanding in their help with these matters. I would highly recommend them to anyone.
