Efficient and Effective

I’d like to thank Watkins & Gunn Limited, especially Holly Hale, for their effective work on my case. Holly Hale is an amazing asset to Watkins & Gunn Limited, her professional and understanding approach was nothing short of outstanding. I was very appreciative of Holly taking time to talk with me and explain things. I always had timely responses to my questions and concerns. At a very stressful time I felt I could rely on Holly to be open and honest with me and to offer clear advice. Many Thanks

Couldn't have asked for a better process and outcome of my claim , I was kept well up to date with every action made by both parties which made me feel comfortable and confident the right decision was made , would most certainly recommend to family and friends and due to the circumstances I have with work I will certainly be using Watkins and gunn for any issues that may arise in the coming months. Thanks for you help and hard work. 👍👍

I have dealt with solicitors before and they do not reply to any correspondence and when they do you have to chase them up. Clive Thomas (Watkins & Gunn Ltd) kept me up to date with my claim and would always reply to any questions

Excellent Care For Clients!

To begin with I was unsure if this was ever going to be solved as it’s my first time experiencing any kind of claim procedure, Kayleigh assured me from the start that they are working on it and I just left it to the professionals, after a bit of back and forth with the opposing firm I was contacted with an offer that astonished me, offer was accepted and case closed, huge thank you to Kayleigh and any other individuals that took part in helping with the claim!

All of the staff at Watkins & Gunn are absolutely amazing. Having been presented with a situation I wasn't expecting, from the initial phone call that I made to them, right through to the end result, I always felt reassured and supported by the whole team. They will definitely be my first call, if I need to use a solicitor again.
