Nadia is a superstar!

Nadia Irwin at Wollens is some kind of superhero in disguise. I am a first time buyer in my 40s and whilst getting all of our information together was a breeze, unfortunately the vendors solicitors were nowhere near as efficient or organised which caused us weeks of headaches. Nadia was amazing though and kept me up to date every step of the way and really fought my corner against the vendors solicitors who were just totally unreasonable. Before I appointed a solicitor for my purchase, everyone told me that I wouldn't have a good experience and that whoever I chose would be hard work and that I would need to constantly push for results, but it couldn't have been further from the truth. If you are looking for a friendly, professional and efficient solicitor with great communication for your house purchase/sale then look no further.

The dispute resolution team, led by Simon Bean, were very understanding, approachable and professional. Simon really took care to make sure that I understood the case as it developed and gave clear and comprehensive advice as to the best options for my responses. They ensured I was immediately updated of any developments and were receptive to my suggestions on the scope of my communications. First Class,

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!

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.
