Having a Will drawn up at Wolferstans
I approached Wolferstans Solicitors about having a will drawn up for myself. I found the reception staff very friendly and they made me feel at ease. I was introduced to James who took my initial information and then made an appointment to see Charlotte. Charlotte made me feel at ease and she dealt with the details expertly. She gave me good advice and everything went smoothly. Would recommend.

Reviewing our Will.
We recently reviewed our Will, which we had previously written in 2014. We were welcomed with a cup of tea, and Charlotte, our Solicitor, took us carefully through the process. Throughout, the communication was good, the advice was clear, professional, and knowledgeable. We were satisfied throughout. Charlotte was friendly, available, flexible and professional.

I’m happy to say that Wolferstans were absolutely brilliant in taking on my case.
They were very professional at all times and Mr Snell and Charlotte talked me through, with infinite patience, every step of the way. I would thoroughly recommend them to anyone. Thank you both very much, you both have the patience of a saint!
