Professional & Refreshing
Choosing a solicitor is a daunting task. As with any profession, there are the good and the bad, and having letters after you name or a fancy office doesn’t change that.
I called and spoke to a few practices before engaging with Abby Smith at Woolley & Co, because I wanted to get a feel for the person who would ultimately be steering me through the legal mine field that was divorce and financial settlement and I wanted that person to share my values and fully understand the situation I was unfortunately in.
Abby was excellent. I wanted to be fully involved and Abby welcomed this approach and we had many email and phone conversations to agree on certain issues and aspects that lead to an eventual and satisfactory conclusion to the whole affair.
I was pleased to have Abby and her level headed approach on my side and her calm and thoughtful nature is what I wanted to complement my wish for a peaceful, respectful, but most of all, fair agreement for my ex, myself and our children.

Divorce
I was trying to do my own divorce when I was unable to trace my wife after using tracing agencies. I decided to use wolley and Co. and I'm glad I did. My personal solicitor was very professional and communication was excellent. They managed to find her and got the divorce sorted. I would highly recommend this company.

highly recommended divorce lawyer
Highly recommend Abby Smith for sensitive but straightforward advice on seeking divorce. She made the process transparent and easy to navigate, taking away a lot of the drama and difficulty that I'd anticipated. Friendly, professional and quick to respond on questions - everything I needed to feel she's on my side.

Very happy
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for working hard to progress the divorce quickly. I was recommended to ask for you specifically to file my divorce application by a friend, and I am very happy with the efficient way you have handled the process, which is exactly as my friend advised me. I will consequently recommend you in the future.
