"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."

"I am housebound, and Wolferstans were more than happy to visit me at home. They even came with a 'witness' once the will was complete. I feel they gave excellent advice and everything was completed quickly."

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!

I approached Wolferstans as I have previously used them, in fact for nearly 40 years. My experience with them this time was outstanding. Gemma Smith was a pleasure to deal with and her knowledge and customer service was second to none. She kept me up to date with everything and all went very smoothly. I would definitely recommend Wolferstans.

A very professional service.

We have just renewed our wills and found the whole process straightforward. We were put at ease by the staff in spite of our difficult circumstances. Both Danielle and Chloe were friendly, professional and knowledgeable, explaining the more intricate details clearly, ensuring our understanding. The whole process was seem less and completed in a timely manner. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend the company to others.

As a lady on my own, the thought of dealing with a solicitor was a little daunting. However, in this instance - not so. I was immediately put at ease, with friendly people in pleasant surroundings. The advice I was given was easy to understand. I was offered coffee and a taxi home arranged for me. Much appreciated. I have already recommended Wolferstans.

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.

I have been unfortunate enough to require the help of a solicitor and fortunate enough to have found Wolferstans. I couldn't have asked for better. Excellent communication from start to finish, always updated when anything happened. I felt supported and that someone was on my side at all times. Thank you for everything. I would recommend Wolferstans in a heartbeat.

Highly recommend both Ebenezer Ola and Claire Booth with the sale of our late Mum's property. Claire has been amazing at keeping us up to date with the process, answering all our questions, and generally just going above and beyond. Ebenezer has also kept us up to date and called when necessary. Will definitely use them both again.

Hi Sharon, Thank you so much for your kind feedback. We’re very sorry for your loss, and we’re pleased that Ebenezer and Claire were able to support you through what can be a difficult process. It’s wonderful to hear that Claire kept you well informed and went above and beyond, and that Ebenezer ensured you were kept up to date and contacted when needed. We’ll be sure to pass on your lovely comments to them both. Your recommendation means a great deal to us, and we would be delighted to assist you again in the future. Warm wishes, Wolferstans LLP.

Myself and my family have used Wolferstans on many occasions, to sell and buy houses and for advice. We have mainly dealt with Tishka and Kath who have been a dream to work with. They are always one step ahead and give sound legal advice. The sale of my previous house was fulled by Tishka ensuring the process kept moving forward. We could not recommend them enough and will be using them for all future needs.

Hi Bex, Thank you so much for your kind and continued support. We’re delighted to hear that you and your family have had such positive experiences with us over the years. It’s wonderful to know that Tishka and Kath have made such a strong impression with their proactive approach and clear, practical advice. Keeping matters progressing smoothly is always a priority, so we’re especially pleased to hear how Tishka helped drive your recent sale forward. Your recommendation truly means a great deal to us, and we look forward to assisting you again in the future. Best wishes, Wolferstans LLP.

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.
