Court of Protection and Grant of Probates for my parents

I was recommended Wollens by the Estate Agent when my elderly parents were thinking of selling their bungalow and going into a care home. However, I was not an executor until they both died. When my father passed away, my mother was not able to deal with such affairs as she was the sole executor of my dads estate. Hence. I then contacted Woolen to arrange Court of Protection over my mother as well as sort out my father's estate. This was handled very efficiently and kept me fully informed of progress. On the death of my Mother I was more than happy to instrust Wollens to sort out her estate and obtain the Grant of Probate. I have been very pleased with the service provided and the very reasonal costs involved which I was very happy to pay. I would certainly use Wollens again if I need any further legal work.

Family Law

NAI children returning

Rachel helped me and my children when my children were removed due to NAI. Although we had a pool finding Rachel suggested to the court the resolutions assessment which led to the LA conducting a risk assessment of myself and I am now looking to work with a local family team and my children will be returned. Without Rachel and Ilke this would never be possible, their expertise are out of this world and nothing has ever been too much for either of them. Whether that is answering phone calls early morning to me panicking or emailing me back late nights on weekends to reassure me. Rachel has listened to every worry I have (and there’s been a lot) and reassured me time and time again. I can’t thank her enough for everything she’s done for my family. They are truly amazing at what they do, they have saved my family. Thank you Rachel from the bottom of my heart!

Excellent solicitors

Wollens solicitors are first class. This past year, we have used, their probate, conveyancing and will teams. I could not fault their service. Professional at all times, in what was a difficult time for my husband and myself. I would not hesitate in recommending Wollens. Everything we asked for, they delivered.

Good Service From All at Wollens Solicitors

Wollens proved to be invaluable during a very sad time. Without their professionalism, it would have been very difficult to get through the probate of my late mother in law. I cannot fault all the solicitors & staff at Wollens.
