Ann

Wills, Trusts & Probate

Excellent service!

I had cause to use WG services in respect of estate and inheritance matters and, connected to that, their conveyancing department. Antoinette was wonderful; professional, supportive and patient with a family dealing with the loss of a parent and navigating the maze of will and inheritance matters. I could not have asked for anyone better. Julia was equally professional and helpful with the conveyancing matter. All in all, brilliant people and I would 100% recommend them.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience, Kirsten. Dealing with courts and an ex-partner to sort out a property sale is incredibly draining, both legally and emotionally. We are so glad that Samantha could be that reliable, caring anchor for you during such a tough chapter. We wish you a peaceful and bright fresh start!

Conveyancing

We had a wonderful experience with Amelia and the conveyancing team throughout the purchase of our home. The whole buying process was much smoother than I had expected, and I truly believe Amelia’s professionalism, dedication and support played a big part in that. I really appreciated the way everything was handled and felt supported throughout the process. Amelia has my sincere appreciation and respect for all her work, and I’m also very grateful to the entire team. I would happily recommend them to anyone looking for a professional and supportive conveyancing service.
