Amazing conveyancing on a complex house purchase

Sarah at GWL was nothing short of incredible throughout the process of purchasing our family home. The conveyancing process was very complex due to issues with the title deed on the property but Sarah and her colleagues at GWL were extremely thorough and diligent, always acting in our best interest. Communication was always efficient and we were kept informed at every stage.

Jane Hogg of GWL solicitors acting on my behalf in recent matters of probate and will writing has proved to be highly professional in every respect, most diligent, and has produced the desired results in record time. I cannot fault her representation of my interests in any way whatsoever.

Wills and LPAs.

We would not hesitate to recommend Nadia Morgan of Guy Williams Layton LLP. She made the process of drawing up our Wills and also LPAs very straight forward and kept us informed as the issues progressed. She was able to impart the information in a way which made it easy for lay people to understand. She was patient, friendly and proffessional and we felt very comfotable throughout the whole process.

Probate / Sale of House

I would like to Highly recommend Peter Marsh of GWL. Peter has dealt with Probate for my late farther in 2020, arrange to transfer everything to my mum at this stage including their house. The in 2024 my Mother died and Peter arranged Probate and dealt with all my mum's Debtors and creditors and final when the house had been sold to arrange for all the funds to be transferred into myself, brother and sister. Throughout all the journeys Peter has assisted with his great knowledge and expertise in the Probate minefield. He has kept me informed all the way through both probates and ensuring everything moved along smoothly. I would also like to recommend Sarah Walker who handled the sale of my late mum's house and kept me informed all the way through to complete the sale. Both Peter and Sarah are a credit to the Law firm and would highly recommend them with their expertise and knowledge.
