Above and beyond

We would highly recommend Wollens, and especially Nadia, to anyone looking for a solicitor. Nadia was recommended to us by a friend when we were planning our move from London to Devon, and from our very first phone call, she made a lasting impression. She has been fantastic throughout the whole process, going above and beyond with her support, guidance and communication. Her patience and understanding have been invaluable, particularly during the more stressful moments. She has been a reassuring voice of reason when we needed it most, and her professionalism and genuine care have made such a difference to us. Thank you so much, Nadia, for everything you have done. We honestly don’t know how we would have got through this process without you, and we will never forget the support you have given us. We are truly grateful and anyone fortunate enough to have you supporting them will be in the very best hands.

Outstanding service from start to finish

We had the pleasure of dealing with David Eastman & Asia Gurung when purchasing our new build property. We could not fault them at all. Everything was dealt with quickly, with precision and communication was excellent. I have no doubt that, without them and their efficiency, the purchase would have taken far longer than it did to complete. I would not hesitate in recommending Wollens and I wouldn't consider using another firm.

We are so grateful for all her help and support in making our first house purchase as smooth and stress-free as possible. Thank you Sarah for such an excellent service!

Megan made buying our first home as seamless and stress-free as possible! She worked tirelessly to ensure that the process moved along quickly and constantly kept us updated throughout with clear communication. We highly recommend anyone looking to move house to get in touch with Megan and Wollens. Our offer being accepted through to getting our keys took less than 2 months, which was all down to the hard work put in by our lovely solicitor.

Preparation of our wills and LPAs was initially daunting. However, Charlotte McGregor, Partner at Wollens in Exeter, made the entire process incredibly straightforward from start to finish. Her professionalism, knowledge, friendliness, and attention to detail have been exceptional, and she ensured everything was completed promptly and with minimal fuss. We couldn’t have asked for a better service and would have no hesitation in recommending Charlotte and the team at Wollens.

I and my father before me have used Wollens for many years and I continue to use their services because I know from past experience that I could not find a better firm. More recently Wollens have acted for me to sell the family business. A very long haul which was made bearable by Hebe who has been amazing to work with, very patient with me and a superb solicitor. Thank you Hebe, thank you Wollens.
