Wonder Woman
Paula's expertise and experience, not only of the legal processes but also regarding interpersonal negotiations with the freeholder, were invaluable.
She was realistic in expectations and gave me context and understanding in legislation and process and my choices. Her approach is very worldly, and as a woman in this matter, I valued a female perspective and her diligence in securing a successful outcome for me. Thank you Paula!

Purchased plot of land
We used Wollens to assist us in purchasing a plot of land.
The experience was made even better knowing we had the support of Paula Wakeling-Basham.
Paula was both professional together with adding that personal service, Paula even provided photographs to help with the sale of the land while we were out of the country.
Paula went over and above to support us with the purchase providing expert advice.
We will always use the practice and Paula when we need legal advice.

Fantastic first class solicitor.
I can only thank Wollens Barnstaple for being too busy as would never have had the pleasure of dealing with Paula. Her professionalism and efficiency was second to none. . Nothing was too much trouble. She dealt with all the niggles and me so calmly and efficiently and yet was so kind and friendly. I cannot thank her enough, would most certainly use her again and thoroughly recommend her. Just the best!

Sale of 7 Hawkins Rd Ref : MOR4123/0001
From the moment that Paula first emailed me she was efficient and also very clear with her advice .
The purchase of the property was a seamless process from start to finish and whenever I had a query she responded very promptly.
I always felt confident that everything would progress smoothly with her guiding me through the process and would certainly use her again for any future legal requirements .
