I have partnered commercially with Wollens through my role at Yeovil Town Football Club for the past year and have worked closely with Marco Floreale during that time. It has been a fantastic experience both personally with Marco and more broadly with Wollens as a firm. Marco is personable, approachable and highly professional, and the wider Wollens team reflects those same qualities. The firm has an impressive presence across the South West and is exceptionally well connected within the regional business community. Wollens describe their offering as “full spectrum law”, and in my experience that is an accurate description. What stands out, however, is the depth and practicality of their service. Their advice is not just technically strong but focused on real-world application and outcomes. They also bring what I would describe as “legal plus” — going beyond the traditional remit of legal representation by providing valuable connections, commercial insight, and practical guidance that genuinely helps move projects forward. It has been a pleasure working with Marco and the team, and I would highly recommend Wollens to anyone looking for a proactive and commercially minded legal partner.

Excellent service from start to finish on the sale of my business. My solicitor, Emma Reed, went above and beyond at every stage — she was attentive, responsive, and there at every turn, ensuring the transaction completed smoothly and on time. She was professional, reliable, and an absolute pleasure to deal with. I would thoroughly recommend Emma Reed to guide you calmly and clearly through your business sale.

I would thoroughly recommend Hebe Shepherd for all commercial work. Her abilty to understand what is commercially important combined with her attention to detail made her the key member of our business disposal team.

Hebe has been incredibly professional and helpful throughout our interactions. I have been particularly impressed with her communication as she has been very reliable at keeping me informed throughout the process. I feel she has responded to any questions I have raised and has acted promptly. I would highly recommend her.

Although I was anxious about going through the process of making an LPA for me and with my husband I was put at ease as everything was explained clearly and we were not rushed.

Chloe was absolutely fantastic throughout the process. She was incredibly efficient, prompt and pragmatic in her responses, really clear and made the whole experience so smooth and reassuring for my family. Nothing was too much trouble, every query was met with courtesy and understanding. I just got the sense that everything was under control, and that it was standard practice to be so on the ball, and that they really cared about completing the task. Everything she and her team said they would do, they did - even when Chloe was out of office she still responded to emails, and her colleague Emma picked up her work. Thank you so much for making this all so easy for my family, cannot recommend enough!
Was offered tea or coffee etc but they didn't know where the person was I had gone to visit.
I would highly recommend Abigail Roode at Woollens Solicitors. She represented me during a very difficult time involving matters concerning my son, and I’m extremely grateful for all the support, advice and guidance she gave me throughout the process. Abigail was professional, understanding and approachable during what was a very stressful and emotional period for me. She took my situation seriously and helped me navigate a difficult time when having the right person in your corner really matters. I truly appreciate the work she put into my case and the support she provided. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Abigail and Woollens Solicitors to anyone who needs help with family law matters. Thank you for everything, Abigail.
