Divorce made easy

Deborah Baker is a phenomenal solicitor. Her knowledge and expertise were impeccable - which made this whole process stress free. Deborah was incredibly prompt with her correspondence and left no stone unturned. I would highly recommend Wollens and believe they are one of the best.

Professional and Reliable

Deborah is a highly experienced family law solicitor and her expertise has been invaluable throughout my divorce. She has been both professional and reliable in every aspect. I would recommend her to anyone embarking on the daunting process of a legal battle. Deborah gave me excellent advice and guidance, that helped to achieve realistic goals quickly and efficiently. I am pleased to be where I am today, and thankful to Deborah and her colleagues for all their hard work and dedication to provide a quality legal service that I could trust.

Divorce

When I went to meet Deborah for the first time she sat there and told me what was going to happen the probable out come and the cost. After doing a massive circle we ended up where we started with what Deborah had predicted would happen!!!!! this knowledge can only come with a wealth of experience

Many thanks for all your help over the two years with the Contentious Probate case – which helped to make things as painless as possible. I particularly appreciated how speedily Wollens and in particularly Deborah Baker and her assistants dealt with everything and your succinct emails and letters, free from unnecessary legal verbiage. You also provided just the right amount of sympathy and understanding of how this opened old scars whilst remaining appropriately business-like. Thank you to all involved in the Barnstaple office.
