Wills are a difficult subject to talk about nevermind writing. Wolferstans make it easy and stress free with their personal and service skills ensuring you are fully aware of how to proceed and cutting through the legal 'jargon' that can put some people off writing (and paying for) a Will.

Will writing

I can't thank Danielle Penrose enough for making the whole will drafting process so clear and simple. Outlining exactly what I needed to think about, highlighting what I hadn't considered, and making a conversation about death as natural as any other subject (I mean this in the best way).

Thinking about your own death isn't easy, Danielle handled every aspect of this process with sensitivity and care.

Also, at no point did I feel rushed, or against the clock - I know a lot of people fear this about solicitors. Our initial meeting was relaxed, and we took time to talk openly about my wishes.

Thank you Danielle!

Everyone was very helpful throughout getting our wills completed, and we both felt very confident in the staff and their experience, and the knowledge there wouldn’t be any complications when the process was complete..

Dealt with Wolferstans due to a sensitive family matter. Throughout the process, I experienced delays, a lack of transparency, slandered and was threatened multiple times. When I raised a formal complaint this was their formal response " As you are not a client of this firm. I am therefore unable to accept any complaint from you or provide you with any further information.I am sorry that I am unable to assist you further." Sums them up really, you dont spend money with us, we dont care!

I have used Wolferstans on 3/4 occasions now and they have been first class.
We have had a recently experience working with David Scarrott who was simply amazing. His cool, calm nature, combined with his phenomenal advice has enabled us to get our matter resolved. Thank you David. I previously had worked with Suzanne and Tishka and both were very efficient and knowledgable. I will not use another solicitors from now on. Thank you Wolferstans
