We used Allan Stewart for the sale of our house & business. Allan was absolutely fantastic, he was very friendly and professional and kept us up to date during the whole process. We would defiantly use Walker Foster again, the best solicitors firm we have ever dealt with. Highly recommend.

For around the last 15 years, I have been a client of Walker Foster Solicitors. I have always received excellent service from Keith Hardington and other members of his team. Keith is always on hand for help and advice whenever needed and he is always professional and friendly. I would highly recommend Walker Foster for any legal services.

3rd time I've used this company in recent years, (for 3 different services). Very easy to deal with, always professional but without the usual 'wall of formality' that you tend to get with some Solicitor's. Similarly, with legal document etc. they'll instinctively include additional explanatory wording, in layman's terms, where it's typically needed ! Also, on each occasion, the fee they quoted was what was charged at the end. By far the best company I've used (have tried a number of other's prior).

Brilliant service

We can't recommend Anna Robinson highly enough, having recently sold properties and purchased one, she has been a constant during the whole process, she has guided us through with ease leaving us feeling confident throughout, she has kept us informed at all times, and nothing has ever felt too much trouble. We are so lucky in Settle to have such a brilliant firm of Solicitors.

Sara is an absolute master of her craft!

Absolutely outstanding service. Sara has been balanced, knowledgeable and consistently reassuring throughout my divorce proceedings. What could have been an incredibly stressful and overwhelming process was made clear and manageable thanks to her calm guidance and expertise. She explained every step in a way that put my mind at ease and always made me feel supported. I genuinely couldn’t have navigated this without her, and I’m deeply grateful for everything she’s done.

I'm so glad we chose Walker Foster when buying our land. Rizzwana was really good and professional throughout. She never delayed in getting information over to the sellers and I just felt she went the extra mile, which is a great feeling to have as it can be a daunting process. Thanks Rizzwana for getting it over the line for us. Highly recommend.

House sale - amazing communication

Sarah Bright and Issy Morgan facilitated my house sale. I actually tracked Sarah down from a previous house purchase that she’d done for us while working at another solicitors, because she is so good. The communication is brilliant. No chasing and leaving multiple messages - replying the same day and doing all they can towards desired timelines. Faultless and will always come back to these guys for as long as they are in their roles!!

If I could score 0 stars I would. Absolutely appalling service, I have been chasing the completion of a minor job for nearly a year. It has been passed through multiple people. Emails constantly getting ignored. Many phone calls where messages have been taken and requests for calls back have not been done. I would highly recommend NOT using this solicitor. We also had issues around 4 years ago when buying our house due to the person instructed leaving and not being told. Communication is absolutely terrible, I’m sure you’d get a better service from any other solicitor.
