    The process in preparing both Will and Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) for any individual needs experienced guidance and advice throughout. In addition, a awareness and understanding regarding the sensitive nature of the various decisions being made is also important. My wife and I found that all these key requirements were provided by Kerin Speedie, and her team at Whitehead Monckton. We found that the overall process was carried out in a extremely proffessional, timely, and thoughtful manner. It is reassuring to know that we can rely on Whitehead Monckton for all future legal needs.

      Fantastic Conveyancing Solicitor

      We couldn't ask for a better solicitor to help us purchase our first property. Chantal was proactive and engaged at every stage, making the process easy and stress free. The completion took place quickly and we received our keys right on schedule. WM have good financial crime controls - an intercepted deposit was on our worry list but we needn't have been concerned. I highly recommend WM and Chantal to anyone looking to purchase their residential property.

      Sale and purchase

      After saying for years that I would never move, I found myself in a situation where I had to move. I had lived in my house for nearly 40 years so it was a wrench. Chantal was very kind and guided me through everything that had to be done. She was very efficient, very prompt in all dealings with her, it was amazing to be able to get through to a real live person without having to press many buttons, a direct line to your solicitor is amazing. I would like to thank her, and all at Whitehead Monckton, for making what could have been a very traumatic experience much easier.

      Where what could have been quite a difficult experience, Sam kept us in the loop with everything. Thankfully it didn't end where we first imagined it would, but reassuringly know had it have been necessary it would have been in the best possible way, due to the professionalism from the beginning.
