I cannot thank and recommend Nicola Merson Family Solicitor enough! She has been fantastic at dealing with a child arrangements order and specific issues order for me with a successful outcome at the courts. I will be forever grateful for your kindness, professionalism, communication and all round support. I couldn’t have done it all without her! She really understood and listened and her knowledge was outstanding. She was the calm to the storm I was facing and put me at ease and she is an asset to the Clark Willis Team.

I was very well supported with my divorce by Tanya Bloomfield. We worked on getting the goals clear at the beginning, avoided any acrimony and reached a fair settlement. Even when seeking a non-contentious divorce, it's still a very difficult process and well worth finding a solicitor who adopts a mediation approach rather than seeking a win-lose outcome.

All I Could Have Asked For!

Five star service from Clark Willis for our flat conveyancing. Alister gave me a great first impression with his warm, calm, professional manner and provided me with an immediate fixed fee. From there, Jo and Marie managed the sale seamlessly. Their communication was superb, and the whole process went so smoothly that I never had to chase them once. An amazing team that I highly recommend! Thank you so much!

House conveyancing

Alister Jones and Rachael Morris were brilliant- Thank you. Our house sale was not the easiest for a few reasons, but Alister pulled the rabbit out of the hat and managed our contract exchange and completion in one fell swoop. We were kept informed and consulted with along the way. All dealings were conducted in a professional manner and I would most certainly recommend these professionals to others. Thank you once again for your assistance with our reasonably unique situation.

My partner and I just bought our first home through Clark Willis, and Faye Edemenson and the team have been fantastic! From start to finish, Faye handled everything with incredible professionalism, always taking the time to keep us up to date and answer any questions we had. There is so much to do when you are buying and moving house, and Faye just made the whole process completely stress-free so that we could relax and focus on being excited about our first house. The level of care and attention to detail was amazing, and she is genuinely the most friendly person. If you want the best experience buying a house, go with Faye and Clark Willis, we can't recommend them highly enough. Thank you to the whole team for all of their hard work. Alex & Kiyana
