An truly excellent service that went beyond the call of duty with the solicitor attending our home on 2 occasions during my wife's convalescence. The advice was comprehensive, the attention to detail meticulous and all our calls and emails dealt with speedily.. Recommended unreservedly - tremendous value for money.

I was well satisfied with the professionalism of Wolferstans and aspects of my instruction were treated with excellence of knowledge and good manners. However the cost was high.

Making my Will at Wolferstans Solicitors, Plymouth
At 82 years of age and housebound this is the fourth Will I have had to make in my lifetime, the others being at the ages of 19, 28 and 38. I was most fortunate that my files were transferred to Wolferstans due to the closure of my previous solicitor. I was introduced to Mrd Thompson to deal with my matter. She was happy to visit me at home when necessary and I found that her knowledge, professionalism, kindness and understanding of my situation was for in excess of my last 3 solicitors and I would highly recommend them for any legal aspect you may have.

Very friendly service
Straightforward, efficient service. Everything explained in laymans terms. A perfectly completed Will just before the 'unknowns' of my hospital admission, a very friendly service.

Good advice - excellent, timely, efficient service
Initially we selected Wolferstans to prepare our wills. which they did speedily and with care and consideration. Later (some 2 years) we decided to modify our wills and establish powers of attorney to look after our best interests in the coming years.
We had several meetings with Laura Thompson to the solicitor allocated to our affairs and she helped and guided us in the structure and form of our wills and powers of attorney without trying to influence any of our decisions, simply clarifying the effects of the decisions we made.
We were presented with drafts of both our wills and relevant powers of attorney for evaluation, checking and agreement before we finally proceeded to sign the documents. Throughout Laura and the staff of Wolferstans proved to be both helpful and professional. It is on tyhat basis we can recommend their services with confidence.

Will Writing Made Easy
We had thought about getting our Wills done for 2-3 years and I must admit, if it wasnt for my wife, i would probably still be thinking.
Once we had spoken to Laura, the solicitor, the process was well explained and conducted professionally, quickly and with easy access for any questions.
Thank you so much to Laura and Wolferstans.
