Solicitor at Wollens

Ashley Bevans

Solicitor - Partner - Commercial Property

SRA ID: 410183

I am a property solicitor and partner based in our Torquay office. Although I joined Wollens in September 2019, I have been working within Torbay over the past 8 years which I love and strongly champion. Whilst handling a broad range of Commercial Property work, I have a keen interest and specialism within the hotel and leisure sector. This includes sales and purchases of licensed premises, guest houses and hotels, and cafes. I have also acted for a number of established prominent businesses within hospitality sector both within Torbay and beyond. Notwithstanding this, assisting business start ups are a strong passion of mine and the Torbay and South Devon region are blessed to have. I am also a member of the Torbay Business Forum and former director of the Devon and Somerset Law Society. Outside of work I have a keen interest in skiing and am a qualified instructor operating from Torquay Alpine Ski Club in Barton. When I am not on piste I can normally be found at Sandy Park cheering on Exeter Chiefs, or hiking in our beautiful Devon countryside.

Commercial Property Purchase

5

I worked with Ashley Bevans of Wollens on a commercial property purchase. Ashley was professional, polite and prompt throughout the process - I'm glad he was on our side. He gave great advice and told us what we needed to hear, not what we wanted to hear - never an easy task, but definitely the correct way approach.

I can highly recommend Wollens and Ashley Bevan in particular.

Excellent

Excellent service and communication. We were under a tight time pressure (which would have had adverse cost implications if we had failed to complete) but Ashley managed to get everything through and kept me updated throughout. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

Exceptional Service by My Property Lawyer

5

I recently had the pleasure of working with Ashley Bevans as my property lawyer for the conveyance of my new house purchase, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the exceptional service I received.

From the very beginning, Ashley demonstrated a level of professionalism and expertise that immediately put my mind at ease. He was highly knowledgeable about the intricacies of property law and conveyed a deep understanding of the entire process, making me feel confident in his abilities.

One aspect that truly stood out was Ashley's excellent communication skills. He kept me informed at every stage of the process, promptly responding to emails and phone calls. He took the time to explain complex legal jargon in a way that was easy to understand, ensuring I was always well-informed about the progress of my purchase.

The attention to detail displayed by Ashley was remarkable. He left no stone unturned, thoroughly reviewing all documents and contracts to ensure everything was in order. This meticulous approach not only saved me from potential headaches but also gave me the peace of mind that my transaction was in the best possible hands.

What truly set Ashley apart was his dedication to my purchase. He went above and beyond to expedite the process, working tirelessly to meet deadlines and resolve any issues that arose promptly. It was evident that he genuinely cared about my interests and wanted to ensure a smooth and successful transaction.

In addition to his legal expertise, Ashley exhibited excellent negotiation skills when dealing with the other parties involved. His ability to advocate for my interests and protect my rights as a buyer was truly commendable.

Thanks to Ashley's outstanding work, my house purchase was completed without a hitch. I cannot emphasise enough how grateful I am for his exceptional service. I wholeheartedly recommend Ashley to anyone in need of a property lawyer who is not only highly skilled but also dedicated, communicative, and attentive to detail.

Overall, my experience with Ashley] was nothing short of outstanding, and I am extremely satisfied with the results. If you're looking for a property lawyer who will go the extra mile to ensure your transaction is handled flawlessly, look no further than Ashley. He is a true professional in every sense of the word, and I couldn't be happier with his services. Thank you, Ashley, for making the process of buying my new home a seamless and stress-free experience!

A big thankyou to Steve and Ashley in resolving my separation and transferring the property over for me and my daughter.
Its taken its time as these things do but it was all worth it in the end. We had great communication from you and things were explained in the easiest way possible. When we did come in the receptionists were very friendly and welcoming. I am forever greatful for your kindness and patience.
Well done Wollens you have a great team.
