House sale

IWe would like to thank Svetlana and any one else involved with the sale of our house. Svetlana was always really helpful and approachable in what turned out to be a rather lengthy sale. We always felt we could contact her wih questions she never made us feel like nuisances! We would certainly request her assistance in any future business and not hesitate to recommend her to family and friends. Many thanks for everything.

First class service and support

This is the second time we have used Lucas to help with our new commercial lease, fantastic service, very approachable, knowledgeable and efficient. Brilliant that he remember are previous appointment and remembered all the details, which meant we didn't have to lose any time going over everything again. Exceptional care and patience taken to make sure I understood all the nitty gritty details, explaining things more than once when needed - this was really appreciated. Highly recommend and would have no hesitation to use him again in the future.

Pretty poor. We didn’t instruct but they did deal with our onwards purchase and Helen was basically never really there. What should have taken just a couple of months to complete ended up taking 7 months. Would never use them for conveyancing

Grant of Probate and Property sale

I initially contacted Whiskers to assist with the sale of my mother’s house, as she had moved into a care home and the fees needed to be covered. Sadly, my mother passed away before the sale was completed, so I then instructed them to help obtain a grant of probate for the family estate. I cannot thank Amy Hodgson at the Epping office enough for her guidance—she was both professional and compassionate throughout. The grant of probate was secured in around five weeks, allowing us to proceed with the sale. I would also like to thank Johanna Withams at the Bishop’s Stortford office for her work on the house sale. She was thoroughly professional while remaining mindful of the family’s circumstances. Overall, my family and I received a five-star service, which we would highly recommend.

Thank you for your five-star review. We are so sorry for your loss, but we are pleased that our team could support you through such a difficult time. It is wonderful to hear that Amy provided compassionate guidance to secure the probate so quickly, and that Johanna Withams handled the sale with the professional care your family deserved. We will be sure to share your gratitude with both the Epping and Bishop’s Stortford offices.

Andrew represented me in court. I was looking at time away almost 100% guaranteed. I packed a bag expecting the worst. Andrew worked hard to put a compelling case in my defense and was able to walk out the front door of court. He was very professional and his advice and his services was worth every penny paid. Could not speak highly enough of whiskers have dealt with a lot of solicitors over the years, whiskers has been far the best most professional solicitors I have ever had to use and would recommend them to anyone in need of a criminal solicitor

Thank you for your excellent five-star review, Jack! We are very pleased that Andrew represented you with such success in court.

I have been using Shalini Subherwal as my solicitor for family matters for over 10 years. Firstly, for an incredibly difficult divorce and most recently for another matter that needed clearing up. During this time she has always been the voice of reason and provided sound legal advice. I can't recommend Shalini or Whiskers highly enough.

Thank you Chris for your positive review and for using Whiskers LLP.
