Vikki Martin and her team at Wolferstans

5

I have no hesitation in recommending Vikki Martin and her very supportive team at Wolferstans. She has steered me through an extremely challenging 18 months which has called for professionalism, wise counsel, consideration and calm. Alyssa Toghill, her PA, is not only highly efficient but, when needed, provided me with reassurance thus keeping me grounded in difficult circumstances. To conclude proceedings, I latterly received expert professional advice from Rebecca Moloney which led to the satisfactory outcome of my Divorce. In all, they are a very impressive package.

Expertise and Empathy

Vikki is extremely good when it comes to listening and then navigating you through what is a fairly negative and worrying time whilst ensuring you maintain the higher ground; supported by the wonderful Alyssa. I am grateful for their care and pleased with the outcome of my divorce.

Divorce - Vikki Martin

5

Vikki Martin picked up my divorce mid process due to ineffective prior advice and representation, and an ex-partner who was intent of creating difficulties and exacerbating dispute rather than finding solutions. She held the other party to account confidently and gave clear advice as to whether their threats made had credibility or were hot air. She also was clear when there was no point pursuing a matter and best to take it on the chin. I would highly recommend.

I would highly recommend Vikki Martin @ Wolferstans Plymouth. From the very first appointment she gave me hope during a very stressful and emotional time in my life. She has worked diligently and with a strong determination to provide me with the best outcome possible during my divorce. I cannot thank her enough for all she has done for me. I can now comfortably look forward to the next chapter in my life.

Listened carefully and interpreted my wishes into actions resulting in a successful outcome. Vikki took the time to understand the personalities involved so was able to quickly address issues arising and take swift yet thorough actions. She was thorough, tenacious and unswerving in her approach for which I am very thankful.

Wolferstans Solicitors in Plymouth are exemplary, they completed my conveyancing, changed my will and are dealing with my matrimonial changes all hassle free . There are many staff that warrant a mention but the three I have to praise are Suzanne Broughton, Vikki Martin and Rebecca Bawler, if you are lucky to have these three on your side your in safe hands. Faultless service.

Having to deal with a recent divorce for the first time and financial settlement! I found myself in safe hands with Vikki Martin and the team at Wolferstans Solicitors.

Every stage was explained in great detail to make a difficult time easier to deal with. Everyone at Wolferstans has been supportive and truly professional during a very hard time.

Thank you.
