From the first contact Miles and Oliver were helpful, efficient and compassionate. Nothing was too much for Miles, he was very professional and caring due to the nature of the situation. Can not fault the service myself and my nan received. Thank you for helping during a difficult time in our lives!

Putting Our Affairs in Order!

4

As a 'youngish' retired couple, we finally got around to writing our wills and taking out LPA's before it was too late and we were extremely pleased with the service provided by Wolferstans.

Miles was very thorough and easily approachable. He explained the legal jargon and every step of the process really well and provided sound advice.

It was indeed a thoughtful and stress free process and well worth appointing Wolferstans to help you with this matter.

Preparation of will

I was very happy with how I was received and treated by the very friendly staff, in particular my solicitor Miles Hattersley, who explained everything to me very clearly. I am 85 and this is my first contact with solicitors (my husband has recently passed away, and he always dealt with legal matters). However I was immediately put at ease and the whole process was made an easy experience for me. Thank you Miles.

Wills & LPA's

I would definitely recommend using Wolferstans to write your wills & LPA's. The service was very friendly & an altogether smooth process. Above all, the 'jargon' was patiently explained to us "oldies". We felt very reassured with every step. Miles was a pleasure to work with. Thank you.

Professional, courteous and sage advice

Gareth White, Sam, Luke and Miles dealt with our case. From the very beginning through to the end they fully supported us. This was in a very difficult time for my wife and I and we could not have asked for a better solicitor and team. We cannot thank them enough for their hard work, knowledge and constant communication. We would definitely use Wolferstans again, having received a first class service.
