Professional, thorough, brilliant

Overwhelmed by being a first time buyer , and various solicitors quotes finally having spoke to Alister I had peace of mind. Alister was a brilliant choice from beginning to end. He is very approachable, reassuring and I consistently felt Alister was acting in my best interests and could fully trust he was advocating for me with his professional and thorough approach. Thanks for everything Alister, I could not have done it without you. Also to add everyone i ever had contact with via phone , email or in branch were all welcoming, helpful and efficient . Really pleased with Clark Willis Solictors.

Faye and Elise have been incredible from start to finish with our house purchase. As first time buyers, we had lots of questions and Faye was able to explain and simplify everything for us.

I had an excellent experience with this Clark Willis and I can’t recommend them highly enough. From start to finish, the whole process was handled with professionalism, efficiency, and genuine care. My solicitor Faye was absolutely amazing always responsive, clear in her communication, and incredibly supportive throughout what can often be a very stressful process. She took the time to explain everything in simple terms, kept me updated at every stage, and made sure everything progressed smoothly and on time. I’m extremely grateful for their help and wouldn’t hesitate to use their services again or recommend them to others.

I cannot recommend Clark Willis Solicitors enough. Faye and Elise in the conveyancing team were exceptional with the handling of the sale of my late father's property. They were very patient and sensitive during a very difficult time, and especially when the original buyers pulled out. Thankfully, we had new buyers in December and we completed in good time this month. Thank you.

I got in touch with Clark Willis to have Mirror Wills updated under the free wills service, through Marie Curie. Everyone was very friendly and accommodating. A home visit was organised to draft the Wills and our Solicitor, Negar, was very professional, friendly and explained everything we needed to know in order to proceed with our wishes. The drafts of the Wills were posted out to check and another home visit arranged in which Negar and her secretary came to go through and witness the signing of the final document. A great, professional service with lovely people. Many thanks.
