About this score
This rating is based on verified client feedback and compares how this firm’s value for money is perceived against the national average. In legal services, value for money is not about being the cheapest option, but about whether clients feel the service, expertise, and outcome justified the cost. This comparison helps place client experiences in context when choosing a law firm.

About this score
This rating is based on client feedback and compares how satisfied people were with the result of their legal matter against the national average for similar legal services. While every case is different and outcomes can depend on the law, the facts, and decisions made by courts or tribunals, this comparison is designed to be like for like.
When a firm has a large number of reviews, individual case differences tend to balance out over time. This makes the national average a useful benchmark for understanding how often clients feel the result achieved was fair and appropriate for their situation. Even small differences from the average can therefore reflect a meaningful difference in the overall standard of legal service provided.

Housing & Property
Conveyancing as a test of endurance
We used Walters & Plaskitt for the sale of my late mother's property. Walters & Plaskitt were very good in the face of the buyers being the slowest buyers in the world. The sale process took almost six months from when the offer was accepted to completion but absolutely none of this arduous process was the fault of Walters & Plaskitt. On the contrary , whenever legal questions or matters for W&P arose they were dealt with in a timely and professional manner. I understand from other people that what I experienced was similar to what all house purchases are like at present. [shudder]

Hi Kevin, thank you for sharing your review. Selling a late loved one's property is already an emotional milestone, and having it dragged out over six months by an incredibly slow buyer makes it an arduous process. We are so grateful for your patience and your understanding of the current property market. Thank you for choosing Walters & Plaskitt Solicitors during such an important time, and we wish you all the best!

we had meetings with Julie who took us seamlessly through our making of new wills and then new Power of Attorney which we found that the previous company had not provided us with properly. her advice was excellent and she was very patient with us. really professional, yet easy to understand the importance of there being certain things in place.

We chose W&P to deal with our probate. Julie was professional but also down to earth. She explained the whole process very well. We expected the probate to take about 14 weeks but was through within 4. Thank you for you help and support throughout you made it all easy and stress free for us. Would recommend.
