    We needed to get our Wills updated and LPA's put in place and Megan provided us with a first class service and was a pleasure to deal with. She is extremely knowledgeable and simplified the whole process. We would have no hesitation in recommending her, and we'll certainly be using Atwell's again.

    Superb Service

    I cannot thank or praise you more highly. You have been so professional dealing with the sale of mum’s house and then her subsequent death and then the final sale. I have been quite an emotional client , dealing with my own husband’s death and then all the proceedings selling mum’s house, and then her death. You have been so caring towards me during this difficult time, showing support for me as well as being so professional with the sale. I cannot recommend you and your service more highly. Thank you for making the whole process so much easier for me. With very kindest regards

    from Attwells Solicitors LLP

    Thank you for your review. We are sorry for your loss, and we’re honoured to have been able to support you during such a difficult time. Your recommendation means a great deal to us, and we are pleased we could make the process a little easier for you.

    Recommend for wills

    I had a really positive experience with Attwells Solicitors when arranging my will. Megan was extremely helpful and clearly very knowledgeable, which made the whole process feel straightforward and stress-free. She managed to get everything prepared very quickly, and when I went in to sign the will the appointment was smooth and efficient. I was also impressed with how fast everything was finalised afterwards. My copy of the will arrived in the post within just two days, which was much quicker than I expected. Overall, the service was professional, friendly, and very efficient. I'd definitely recommend Attwells to anyone looking to sort out their will.

    from Attwells Solicitors LLP

    Thank you for your feedback and recommendation. We’re delighted to hear that you had a positive experience when arranging your will.

      Quick, reassuring, and completely stress-free

      I can't recommend Samuel Welham highly enough. I came to him with a time-sensitive settlement agreement and a very tight deadline, and he understood the seriousness and urgency of my situation straight away. He sorted everything within a day, replied to my emails almost immediately, and explained everything clearly throughout. On top of being so responsive and efficient, he was genuinely kind and reassuring, which made a stressful situation far easier to handle. Thank you, Sam!

      Got the job done, but communication could be better

      Attwells successfully completed my purchase within the deadline they promised, which was the most important thing for me and the reason I'm giving 4 stars. However, as a FTB, I often felt that the auction team spoke to me as though I already understood the process and legal terminology. A bit more guidance and clearer explanations would have made the experience far less stressful. Communication could definitely be improved, especially for FTB who are relying on their solicitor to help them understand what is happening at each stage. Greater clarity around fees and potential additional costs would have been so helpful

      from Attwells Solicitors LLP

      Thank you for your honest feedback, Cornel, and congratulations on your first home! We are glad to hear that the auction team hit your vital deadline and successfully secured your purchase. Your points about the need for clearer guidance, proactive step-by-step communication, and absolute transparency regarding fees are completely valid. Your feedback is a vital reminder of how we can improve our service. Thank you again, and we hope you are settling in well!
