Nic - Ever the professional

We have worked with Nic on several occasions when buying and selling properties. Nic's professionalism and genuine care for our property sale is second to none. Nic's level of contact is just enough to keep us informed and up to date without us needing to know too much about the ins and outs of what he is doing. Nic is ever the professional. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him or Woodfines to anyone looking at buying or selling their property.

Land registry

I had a land registry done at woodfines by Suzanna I was quoted £1,200 but they changed me £5,000 on day of completion I disputed the cost but they took the money without consent. Now reported to ombudsman and Suzanna won't answer my calls as guilty of fraud.

Employment

An outstanding employment solicitor

I engaged Andrew Buckley to advise me on a restrictive covenant matter, and I was extremely impressed with the quality of his work. From the outset, Andrew demonstrated exceptional professionalism, sound judgement, and a deep understanding of employment law. He quickly grasped the issues, provided clear and pragmatic advice, and helped me navigate a stressful situation with confidence. What I particularly appreciated was his ability to explain complex legal points in a straightforward manner and to focus on practical solutions rather than unnecessary complication. Throughout the process, Andrew was responsive, reassuring, and meticulous in his approach. His advice was invaluable, and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone seeking expert employment law advice.

Purchase of leasehold property

Purchasing a leasehold property alongside extending the lease has not been an easy ride, especially when there are two sides to the management company. It has taken 15 months and during that time I'm sure, has been a complete headache for my solicitor. He has worked tirelessly for me and kept me updated during the whole process. My heartfelt thanks to him for finally getting this across the line. Well done Nic, I cannot thank you enough

Support and advice when you need it most!

Andrew is a superb lawyer! For 20 years I have recommended him to by business coaching clients! This time I was in need of advice and he pulled the stops out to deliver. Over a weekend and even joining my in a team meeting where I needed his support to deal with and employment issues in my own team. So pleased he could help wrap things up clearly and with professionalism and a great bed side manor! Thank you Andrew I will be happy to refer you as always to our clients or use you again myself should the need arise.

Sale of Business

I have used Woodfines Solicitors for over 10 years now. But when selling your own Business that you have built from scratch, you need expert advice and support. I knew that to a degree, but until you sell a business you have know idea of actually is involved. The way Neil Gibbs and his wonderful team supported the sale process and worked to an extremely tight deadline was incredible. The level of knowledge, expertise, experience and commitment they showed was amazing and I would highly recommend them to anyone going through a similar process.
