We worked with Dave Eastman & Liz Rigden at Wollens Barnstaple on the sale of our property. We received the best service we have had with any conveyancers. If you're looking for top-notch services, dont look any further.

We have recently used Hayley Green at Woolens to carry out works relating to a business contract. From the outset Hayley was proactive and set out her costs and timescales all of which were met. Throughout Hayley kept us updated and worked with our interests at heart, her attention to detail and advice given was exemplary and I could not fault the service received that included post sales advice and communication. A big thank you Hayley and we will not hesitate recommending you and your services

Karen at Wollens helped us revise my 91 year old mother's will, and also sort out financial, and health and welfare LPA's.
These matters are never easy for a family to face, but I can honestly say that the whole experience with Karen from start to finish was professional and efficient, and with a kindness and empathy which made the whole experience relaxed and stress free. Karen has a wonderful manner and approach with clients which made my elderly mum feel at ease, thank you. Special mention must also go to Julie McManus, Karen's secretary, who was super efficient and very kind and helpful, and Enya who stepped in when Julie was unavailable.

I cannot praise Wollens Barnstaple branch highly enough for excellent, professional service when selling and purchasing property. I would happily recommend them and intend using them again for further legal matters. Thank you so much Andrew Wood and Chloe Parker for making it all such a smooth and stress free process.

We have just completed on our house sale and purchase thanks to Wollens. Judith and her team were brilliant the whole way through and even though it wasn't the easiest of sales we were kept us up to date, the team are friendly and helpful and someone was always available to talk to if we needed reassurance or help. Really pleased with the service and would recommend to anyone that is buying or selling a property. Thank you Judith!

Neither too big, nor too small – we’re perfectly formed. With nearly over 140 bright people, we think we’re a genuine alternative to much larger firms and with significantly more to offer than smaller, high street solicitors. Yet we never lose sight of what’s most important: to provide the best possible guidance in a no-nonsense, approachable and accessible way. Because no two clients are the same, we don’t paint by numbers. What is the secret formula for being a great lawyer? To actually listen to your client and take the time we need to get to the nub of the matter. It’s why getting to really know you is at the heart of our service philosophy. Because if we don’t try to understand you, how can we possibly give you the best, tailored advice? A diverse family united by a common goal. We’re from all walks of life, but we’re kindred spirits when it comes to our aim of being the complete opposite of a stereotypical lawyer. We always try to give you less waffle, more clarity and no grey areas in between. What’s more we’ll treat you as an equal – our relationship should be open and honest, built on trust and dialogue. Playing our part in our colourful community. When we’re not advising about law, we’re often helping or supporting local charities, good causes or community projects and events. By getting widely involved with the colourful melting pot that is our community and, hopefully, enriching the lives of others, the reward is that we’ll be enriched too. Helping our clients, gaining recognition from our peers. Doing the best for our clients will always be our driving force, but we’re also pretty proud of our haul of industry awards over the years – such as winning the top prize for Excellence in Private Client Practice at the Law Society’s Excellence Awards and Law Firm of the Year at the Devon and Somerset Law Society Legal Awards.
