Much more confident on the way forward

I previously spoke to another solicitor in Weybridge and they rushed me through the call and were really unhelpful. Lisa was the complete opposite. I now feel much more confident on the way forward.

The team at Poole Alcock have shown a high degree of professional with my case. Lisa Ball has shown a very strong interest and determination to succeed and giving 5 stars is a bit of an insult, as it should be 10 stars, plus.

Thank you to Lisa Ball for her support and guidance through an incredibly stressful and distressing divorce. I found her knowledge, patience, kindness and empathy reassuring and she was with me at every stage; a true asset to Poole Alcock. So much so, I have used them to write my will and also intend to for conveyancing.

I have had Poole Alcock Solicitors in Congleton handle my rather complicated
, time consuming and consequently rather expensive divorce .
I am now very happy with the eventual outcome and can not praise my family Solicitor, Lisa Ball and her team enough for their professional care and support during a rather stressful and difficult time .
The finance team have also been most helpful and supportive .
I will confidently be using the firm again for a property transfer and my will .
