A JOB WELL DONE

We have used Watkins & Gunn’s Pontypool solicitors for many years, as did our parents before us. On this occasion my sister and I turned to them again knowing it would be a job well done. And it was.

Thank you for navigating us through the conveyancing and house selling process so smoothly Sadia.

My sister and I had absolutely no idea what was involved but we were very pleased to have Sadia as our solicitor on this. Sadia dealt confidently with a raft of paper deeds dating back many years and gave us sound advice and kept us updated whenever we asked.

We felt we were in safe and competent hands with Sadia.

Good luck with your future career in the Law profession Sadia .

And thank you

Excellent Solicitor

Elise took over my case, and she made sure it got solved. She was always available to answer any questions I had.
What I loved most about her was how she kept me updated through the whole process, even when I wasn’t asking for updates.

Thank you Elise x
