Amelia has been fantastic throughout the whole process. She always gave great and honest advice and though the outcome was not what I wanted, I could not have asked for better representation. I was always kept informed and given solid advice and always felt as if my best interests were a priority. I would definitely recommend Wollens and would use again.

Simon really took care to make sure that I understood the case as it developed and gave clear and comprehensive advice as to the best options for my responses. They ensured I was immediately updated of any developments and were receptive to my suggestions on the scope of my communications. First Class,

Sarah Rowles has been absolutely amazing throughout our house purchase, and I cannot recommend her and her team highly enough. We were kept informed at every step of the way, and any emails or queries we had were always responded to promptly. Sarah was incredibly efficient, professional and understanding throughout the whole process, and she was always happy to answer any questions we had. We are so grateful for all her help and support in making our first house purchase as smooth and stress-free as possible. Thank you Sarah for such an excellent service!

Thank you for your comments with regards to Sarah - we are so pleased that she has been able to help you with your house purchase. We would be pleased to help you with a future matter should you need. With best wishes Wollens

Preparation of our wills and LPAs was initially daunting. However, Charlotte McGregor, Partner at Wollens in Exeter, made the entire process incredibly straightforward from start to finish. Her professionalism, knowledge, friendliness, and attention to detail have been exceptional, and she ensured everything was completed promptly and with minimal fuss. We couldn’t have asked for a better service and would have no hesitation in recommending Charlotte and the team at Wollens.

I and my father before me have used Wollens for many years and I continue to use their services because I know from past experience that I could not find a better firm. More recently Wollens have acted for me to sell the family business. A very long haul which was made bearable by Hebe who has been amazing to work with, very patient with me and a superb solicitor. Thank you Hebe, thank you Wollens.

Megan made buying our first home as seamless and stress-free as possible! She worked tirelessly to ensure that the process moved along quickly and constantly kept us updated throughout with clear communication. We highly recommend anyone looking to move house to get in touch with Megan and Wollens. Our offer being accepted through to getting our keys took less than 2 months, which was all down to the hard work put in by our lovely solicitor.
