Emily Spencer

Tagged solicitor Emily Spencer

From the very onset Emily made us feel at ease. She guided myself and my brother to a successful outcome of navigating what is a complex process with a human touch. This was important to us as we were going through some challenging times with sourcing care homes and navigating Social Services. Knowing Emily was taking care of things both effectively and efficiently was a great reassurance. Emily was quick to act with the Court of Protection, which enabled a lengthy process to be more timely. Thank you Emily

Suzanne Riozzi

Tagged solicitor Suzanne Riozzi

I needed to sell a close relative's property to meet care home fees. As I chose the auction option, Suzanne and her team had a very tight 4-5 week deadline to prepare the auction pack. Not only did they acheive this but somebody was always either available to answer my questions and/or return my calls promptly.. Payment of the proceeds was quick and straightforward, enabling me to be in the position to begin negotiations with Social Services. Based on my experience, I would unhesitatingly recommend Wooley Bees for any property related legal matters. Competent and friendly to deal with.

Latoya Atkinson

Tagged solicitor Latoya Atkinson

My area of law was niche as it was around safeguarding advocacy. Latoya was thoughtful, responsive and thorough. Quality legal advice is never cheap, but I can honestly say I received fair value and would not hesitate to use Latoya again.

Claire Pays

Tagged solicitor Claire Pays

Claire provided a very efficient and timely conveyancing service regarding the sale of my mother's property to enable us to raise funds to pay for my mother's future care. She promptly and efficiently dealt with all of our enquiries regarding the sale process including the added complication of our original buyer withdrawing. The whole process seemed to run smoothly. I am very satisfied with the service.

James Pantling-Skeet

Tagged solicitor James Pantling-Skeet

For over a year (maybe even two, time flies!) we have been working with James trying to negotiate a tricky situation with the local authority in relation to the care needs of our child who has complex needs. James and Daisy (paralegal) have been incredible throughout and we are eternally grateful to them for helping us achieve the outcome we were looking for. Thorough, responsive and ready to roll with every punch that was thrown our way. We would not have the current outcome without them. Their professionalism is unmatched but also their empathy and kindness has been a breath of fresh air and made the process that bit easier. I would highly recommend James and Daisy, the dream team! Thank you both from the bottom of our hearts.

Amanda Steele

Tagged solicitor Amanda Steele

I don’t know where to start with this. Our nightmare ended on the 5th November 2025 but it has taken me this long to be able to rwrite this as I have not been dealing with the after effects of the whole thing. What I will categorically say is that Amanda (my man of steel) was the best and I believe there is no better. She knew me from day one and understood how I needed to be dealt with. A true professional in every aspect and although I was completely innocent I don’t believe anyone had my back like Amanda did. For that I am forever grateful. Thank you Amanda.

Helen has been my solicitor for 2 years. A very long time. She has always been the best. She has fought so hard for me against social services. She always put my point across in a professional way that I would not have been able to. She came to visit me in placement. She always worked around me at all hours. I have had countless appointments. She has listened to me ramble for hours. Thank you.
