"I contacted Wolverstans in 2025 for help with my hearing claim from the MOD. Alex Nicholson helped me through my entire claim, set up all my tests at the various doctors. My claim was settled out of court and I was really happy with the whole service."

Thank you

I am incredibly grateful to my solicitor Angela and the entire Wolferstans team for helping us secure permission for my oldest daughter to relocate to Australia with us as a family. This case involved years of tension, emotional strain, and repeated challenges from my daughters father, yet they handled everything with strength, strategy, and genuine care for my daughter’s wellbeing but most of all they listened. They fought for us when we were exhausted from fighting alone. Their expertise has changed our lives, and I cannot thank them enough.

Knowledgeable, Proactive, Compassionate and clear advice hot eased stress

I was informed before churring and after with my claim. The solicitor Paul White who dealt with my case, was very knowledgeable and informed me of all issues involved with my case, and walked me through every step. He was compassionate with myself and my daughter. My case was an extraordinary case from the start. Mr White worked hard to give me an outcome that would help me rebuild my life. Mr. Paul White and his team are all what you would expect from a solicitors. Transparent and professional.

Excellent Solicitors, would 100% recommend them

I've just used Wolferstans for my recent purchase and sale of properties and they have been absolutely amazing, specifically Carol Foster and her team. They have an app which makes the process simple, you can toggle between the sale and purchase, very clear and easy to use even if not great with IT. They were so quick when responding to any queries I had, I never felt I had to do any chasing as they were always on the ball. Priced well and definitely worth the money. I have already recommended them to my friends and would most definitely use them again in the future. Lovely team, super friendly and would definitely recommend them.

Conclusion of prolonged child matters

Ongoing legal child matters, which were being continuosly revisited and relentless attempts made by my ex partner to change the Child Arrangement Order (CAO) - a live with father order was successfully desimated by Amber Parkinson & my barrister, Asher Shane in Court, resulting in a barring order successfully approved, blocking both parties from revisting court for several years. Amber Parkinson was exceptional in her legal advice & counsel and will have no hesitation in recommending her & the team at Wolferstans. Thank you so much. Myself, my wife and the children can finaly move on, in a blended family arrangement; building on and nourishing & nurting the children.

From the first meeting through to the signing of our will we could not fault the service from Wolferstans. From the receptionists to the solicitor all the staff are very welcoming, polite and professional. They pride themselves on being a family business.

I highly recommend this firm. Very professional, friendly and communicated extremely well, using no 'legalise'. Linda Woollams helped me through the entire process and she is so good at her job it's obvious she has more knowledge than most other solicitors appear to know.
