"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."

Contentious Dispute

My husband and I worked with Jenny Carter on a contentious dispute. We have nothing but praise for her throughout the experience. We found her polite, friendly and sympathetic as well as easy to talk to and very customer focused. Exceptionally efficient, knowledgeable on her specialty and a very good communicator. Any communication was handled quickly and we always had a rapid, comprehensive response to any questions raised. We have no hesitation in recommending her and she is an excellent ambassador for Wolferstans.

very pro-active

Wolferstans were brilliant. I have bought and sold several properties over the past few years using different solicitors and none came close to matching Wolferstans. They were very proactive on a less than straightforward sale and not once did I have to contact them to find out what was going on such was the level of prompt communication. A particular mention to Jack and Jayda but I know they were supported by others.

Easy to Understand

Nick and Wolferstans staff were very courteous and easy to understand. We were made aware of the costs and that is exactly what we paid. Very easy to understand the solicitor jargon and each thing we didn't understand was explained in laymen's terms.

We had a 5 star experience with Wolferstans Solicitors! Connor Barclay, Jayda Brailey & the team pulled off a 28 day completion for our dream property in Devon (they even managed to go above and beyond to finalise the sale in just 21 days!!) We are so grateful for their determination and efforts to help and support us from start to finish. They cushioned an incredibly stressful life event so it felt seamless and manageable. We would not hesitate to use their expertise in future! Thank you so much 😊 James & Emily

Hi James & Emily, Thank you for your wonderful review. We’re absolutely delighted to hear that you had a 5‑star experience with us. Connor, Jayda and the rest of the team will be thrilled to know that their hard work made such a positive difference during your transaction. Achieving a 28‑day completion and finalising everything within 21 days, was a fantastic team effort, and we’re pleased it helped make a normally stressful process feel smooth and manageable for you both. Your kind words are very much appreciated, and we’re grateful you chose us to be part of such an important milestone. Thank you again, and we wish you every happiness in your new Devon home! If you ever need our assistance in the future, we’d be delighted to help. Warm regards, Wolferstans LLP.

Carrying out Probate correctly is not always straightforward, but Georgina explained from the very start what my options were, she guided me through each step and dealt with the process in a calm, practical and efficient manner. Would certainly recommend Wolferstans.

Great Solicitor!

I strongly recommend Julian Burrows in the Plymouth branch of Wolferstans. When I discovered that my stepmother had her Life Interest Trust in her own private wealth account, I was very concerned. Julian was able to oversee the setting up of a dedicated Trust which was very reassuring for myself and siblings. Julian is very knowledgeable about trusts and guided me through the legalities. He also has a very good pastoral manner and a good sense of humour!

Clinical Negligence case

Liz and her team were absolutely fantastic from start to finish. They supported me through a really traumatic sensitive experience and managed this in a really sensitive way at all times. They were professional and the communication at each stage was brilliant. When you are going through a case like this it can feel daunting and at times don’t always understand however Liz and her team were responsive and took time to explain each step along the way. I felt well informed and supported throughout and I genuinely couldn’t thank them enough. I would reccomend to all of my family and friends in terms of my experience.

Perfect transaction for sale of house at auction

Joey, Connor and the rest of the team did a perfect job when we sold our house at auction. All communications were very quick. They were also quick to react to one or two unusual occurrences. It seems that although there would typically be one point of contact for a particular stage the rest of the team are quickly able to effectively step in if the main person is unavailable. Their app for collecting the details is simple and intuitive. The ID checks and electronic signatures that they use worked well. I opted for a completely digital process and had no problems at all. This way the tasks were completely portable, which was useful because we were between two homes and elsewhere.

I used Wolferstans both ten years ago and very recently and they have maintained a very professional and delightful team throughout. I primarily interfaced with Jane and Sophie for both a house sale and purchase and they were fantastic, incredibly punctual and helped me along so well throughout the entire thing, I would have been lost without them! Cannot recommend Wolferstans enough.
