Paralegal at Wollens

Chloe Emery

Paralegal

I recently joined the Wollens New Build Conveyancing Department as a fee earner in the Residential Conveyancing Department after having been a Paralegal at a Local District Council for almost 5 years. As a previous Local Authority Paralegal I have significant competency of the planning system, local land charges operations, local authority enforcement, and commercial property transactions. It is not possible to specialise in an area of Law whilst working with a small District Council and therefore I successfully maintained a varied and difficult case load which I truly enjoyed. At Wollens my main focus as the principal conduct on property matters is assisting clients with purchasing new build developments, residential sales, re-mortgages, Help to Buy Applications and shared-ownership purchases. After completing my undergraduate degree in Law, I went on to study the Chartered Legal Executive Course whilst working full time at the Council. Since completing the CiLEX Qualification, I have recently began studying the Master’s Degree alongside the Legal Practice Course whilst working full-time at Wollens. I am finding my studying thoroughly enjoyable and I look forward to excelling in my career as a Solicitor. When I am not working, I enjoy travelling the world. I have previously spent a large amount of time travelling, Australia, Asia, New Zealand, Fiji, America and even Europe in a campervan. I am always excited to experience new cultures, visiting new places in the world whilst diving some of the most beautiful dive sites in the world. If I am not working, on holiday or studying, you will find me in the company of my wonderful family visiting the beautiful Devon Coast.

Used for conveyancing, brilliant service throughout the process, making for a relatively stress free experience. Very good at keeping us up to date with how the purchase/sale was going and dealing with any problems quickly and efficiently. Would definitely recommend.

A good first time experience with Solicitors

A few small errors on some documents, but overall a good experience.

I had concerns and questions going into the process of buying my first home, but I was able to speak in person with my solicitor to get them answered.

Very responsive communication.

This was our first time using Wollens for the purchase of our first home. Everything was carried out in a professional manner. As first time buyers the whole process is new to us, Chloe kept us well informed, gave us clear advice and regular updates.

I would highly recommend Chloe and Wollens as everything was carried out in a knowledgeable and efficient manner- thank you Chloe.

Overall I am happy with the service I experienced using Wollens.

Chloe did a great job in responding to my communications in a timely manner and was always very polite and helpful in explaining the process and expectations on my part.

As a first-time buyer, I appreciated the clear and concise communication at all stages.

Some documents contained mistakes such as references to the wrong property or name, but it was nothing that couldn't be fixed easily :)

The only thing I can think of that would improve my experience is to have more proactive status updates from Wollens to me as the client, even if nothing has changed, just a semi-regular communication to say "It's all moving along in the right direction, waiting on ... " can go a long way to putting our minds at ease, especially for first-time buyers

Overall I am happy!
