Mr Thomas Giles

I have never dealt with a solicitor personally and was recommended to contact Woodfines to assist me with a complicated issue. All the staff were super helpful and attentive, but I was extremely fortunate to be passed on Mr Thomas Giles. This man is a credit to the team and is incredibly passionate about his job and the people he is caring for. He dealt with my issue with such patience as it was more complicated on my end, however, was ready to pick up where we left off and dealt with the issue in such a timely matter. He was professional, asked for all the smaller details and was able to spot anything that might potentially be a further issue all prior to carrying out the task itself. Mr Thomas Giles was sensitive about the subject and also knew the right way to go about it and the correct questions to ask. I was made aware of costs and any route the job itself might take us down.
Couldn’t recommend him enough. Thank you so much.

Litigation and contract support

I was introduced to Claire Spencer at Woodfines for assistance with a litigation matter. From the outset, Claire was approachable and helpful in simplifying the legal process and outlining our options, providing great advice throughout. Her diligence and experience helped us to resolve the case successfully, quickly and cost effectively. We were so impressed with the service, we recommended Claire and Woodfines to our Group Legal team based in Ireland for assistance with contract reviews and other litigation. They too were really impressed with the service - Claire and her team are our "go to" if we need legal advice and help going forward. 10/10.

Amazing help found through the power of social media!

I was in a situation that needed a quick turn around, utilising social media a post was made on Facebook. Natasha swiftly responded advising she could be of assistance and she was 100% correct! Very insightful, helpful, honest and clear she allowed me to understand the concept of my agreement. Ensuring I was the main priority throughout and providing an open review on my situation. Balancing time differences between countries Natasha provided clarity out of the normal UK hours to ensure no delays or hold ups with this agreement. Having never been in the situation before, she made me feel at ease in this daunting time and was a pleasure to have her assistance on this! Thank you so much for your help and going above and beyond for me!

superb service

Hannah Johnson and the staff at Woodfines are excellent. I find it hard to put onto words just how grateful I am to Hannah, she was always reassuring and gave great advice. her legal knowledge is outstanding and if there is anything she was not certain off she would find out and then advise me.
I feel lucky that I found her as a lawyer and I can not recommend her highly enough.

The only legal representatives that I could recommend.

I have been involved in criminal and civil cases where Jane Anderson and Hannah Johnson have advised and represented my clients. The service in all cases has been professional, competent and has resulted favourable (in some cases, amazing) outcomes.

I have had experience of barristers, lawyers and solicitors from other firms in the past who were ill prepared and did not help. The UK law system is as fair as possible but court hearings are so, so important. Having the best possible representation is essential and I find that Woodfines LLP is the only firm that I could recommend.

Redundancy settlement

Natasha Moore, was extremely professional and very easy to speak to. Natasha explained all legal jargon to in more understandable wording so I fully understood all the implications for the settlement and made sure I was happy with all the points.

Thank you so much.
