I have had superb service in the past re probate and conveyancing but my most recent experience beggars belief: totally lacking in communication, professionalism and customer care.

We are delighted with the recent service we have received from Luca Angarano at Walker Foster Solicitors and all staff that have given time to our case. The level of service was professional, attentive and always with our best intentions at the heart of the care we received. Myself and my husband would thoroughly recommend Walker Foster for a litigation case (ours was a property case) without reservation. Our case wasn’t the easiest to navigate but with diligence and attention to detail, Luca managed to create a positive and successful outcome for us.

Have been asking for help on a very basic matter since September and still not got anywhere. Now passed onto the third solicitor / locum within the firm and can't seem to get anywhere. Head of office, Bryony, doesn't respond to emails. Totally unacceptable service!

I used Walker Foster for the purchase of a property. Very efficient and thorough. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Kevin Campbell, and his assistant Laura Carter.

I recently instructed Rizzwana Bashir at Walker Foster for a commercial property purchase, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. Throughout the entire process, Rizzwana was proactive, professional, and kept us fully informed. Her clear communication and attention to detail made a complex transaction feel manageable and efficient. We were very pleased with the support we received and would certainly use her services.
