    Divorce Respondent

    Whilst an unwelcome divorce, it was necessary to deal with process and the financial challenges. Eloise was always welcoming in a friendly and professional way, being prepared to discuss alternative proposals I suggested on some matters, to advance negotiations and resolution with the Applicant's lawyers, for ultimate endorsement of the agreed settlement by the Court. I would thus recommend Woodfines and particularly Eloise, to anyone contemplating or responding to a divorce petition.

      Great support for my 21 year old daughter who was up against a driving offence. Mike was calm and kept my daughter and myself informed throughout the process, which took over 8 months. To have his support, professionalism and caring personality during this period made the whole situation easier to cope with. Thank you Mike

      A great process from start to finish

      Having remarried it was important for both my wife and I to get fresh wills, especially so that things were clear, particularly for my grown up son. These are not easy conversations as you have to consider lots of quite unpleasant scenarios and there is a lot of emotion involved, but Shireena was always supportive, never rushing us (it took several months on our side to think about the right approach) and providing impartial, sensible advice to get us to the right outcome. Thoroughly recommend Shireena and Woodfines - indeed am now using them for the sale of a property too!

      IMPORTANT. NOTICE Do not use . I have been waiting for land registry for nearly a year Woodfines quoted £1,200,when completed they took without asking £5,000 . Now they won't answer calls. Do not use . I have now found out that it it normal for Suzanna to do this. I have reported to law society but I understand this will take a bit of time. Paul Evans
