Protracted CICA Claim

This was a particularly long and drawn out compensation claim due to the total disarray of the CICA. Throughout the process I was never in any doubt that Wolferstans would eventually bring the claim to a successful conclusion. The professional tenacity of the personal injury team was exemplary with Karen Walker being the determined person at the heart of my case.

Personal injury claim

Had an overall positive experience. Claim moved between a few people however the handovers were managed really well. Feel it was a fair conclusion, which is what I was wanting. Everything explained upfront (if you read what is sent) no surprises.

Highly Skilled and Supportive Mesothelioma Solicitor

I engaged Wolferstans to represent my family in a mesothelioma claim, and the quality of their work was exceptional. They demonstrated a deep understanding of asbestos related litigation, communicated clearly at every stage, and handled the case with a complex defendant with professionalism and integrity. The preparation of witness and expert evidence was thorough and engagement with the KC was managed well. We felt supported throughout the entire process. I would confidently recommend Dean Cruickshanks to anyone seeking specialist representation in a mesothelioma matter.

I highly recommend this firm. Very professional, friendly and communicated extremely well, using no 'legalise'. Linda Woollams helped me through the entire process and she is so good at her job it's obvious she has more knowledge than most other solicitors appear to know.

Following a nasty trip over a bolt in Plymouth I broke both my arms on falling. This was a huge problem not only for me personally looking after my home and myself, but I was a carer for my husband who is disabled. I needed help immediately with various everyday tasks like meals,washing shopping not to mention the upkeep of the garden and general cleaning. I needed help financially to buy in services and items to help, so I decided to find a local and reputable solicitors that would have local knowledge and a no nonsense approach to my case. Tracey Barton was my assigned solicitor who was amazing and understanding as she had to go through my husband with phone calls and paperwork (I couldn’t even hold the phone or sign papers). Nothing was too much trouble, and dealt with each question or enquiry swiftly, offering sound advice giving me confidence as we went through the claim process. I would like to thank Tracey and the team for their tenacious and professional effort bringing my claim to a successful and swift conclusion, I now can get ongoing help as I need it. I would therefore recommend Wolferstans to anyone who would seek legal help, highly recommended, thank you again.

I can’t thank the whole team enough for everything they have done to get the sale of my flat completed, With living abroad the process was always going to be difficult, but the whole team made the process possible, I have upmost respect for all of their hard work and professionalism that they have shown from the beginning. A massive thank you to Tishka chapman and her team, Kath lawley, kristabel cooper and keeva Fitzgerald. I can’t recommend the company enough. Many thanks again I truly appreciate it

Clinical Negligence

2026 October - Successful Clinical Negligence Claim

Richard Evans - Litigation Assistant - handled the clinical negligence claim that I made sensitively and professionally in a timely manner. He ensured that I understood the procedures and kept me up to date with the case every step of the way, that was very important to me. I could not have hoped for anyone better to take me through this process. He achieved a successful outcome for my claim that was better than I had hoped for.

Probate Sale of Property

Suzie and Claire were excellent when they handled the sale of our late Mum's house. The process was easily managed using the app for paperwork and communication, with additional phone calls and emails as needed. Any queries were dealt with promptly. They were professional and efficient throughout. Thank you.

Exceptional service, highly recommended

We required a service for the sale of a property and the purchase of a new build home. I have used other solicitors previously whose services varied in quality from poor to mediocre at best. This was the first time we have used Wolferstans and both Suzie and Claire provided an exceptional service. I engaged with them in early 2026 and completed late 2026 and they helped me with every enquiry, every step of the way, and responses were lightning fast. Suzie and Claire are an asset to Wolferstans, they showed us what an exceptional service looks like, we would unreservedly recommend their services to anyone.

We used Wolferstans for the sale and purchase of properties, and to write our Wills. On all fronts the service we received from Wolferstans was exemplary! They were in constant communication with us through all the stages, so we always knew where we were in the process, what needed to be done and what we were waiting for. We were able to communicate in which ever way suited us best, email, phone or face-to-face in their offices. We had Aled and Jolanda as our contacts and they were absolutely brilliant!

Brilliant service. Very efficient and the app makes everything very easy to navigate. The team respond promptly to queries and always go out of their way to move the process on. When one person is away they always arrange handovers and let you know who will be staying in touch with you. What could have been a stressful process was made hassle free. Will 100% use them again. A special thank you to Jane Tytheridge and Sophie Page - they are clearly a great team.
