Not having much experience of dealing with solicitors, I found them very helpful and friendly to deal with. They kept me informed regularly which I appreciated, quite often by email but also by telephone which I like personally.

Carol and her team provided us with a great service in the sale of our flat. The help given was exemplary. Carol and the team were always helpful and understanding with the numerous calls and emails I made and often emails and calls were returned within minutes. A level of service I have never experienced before with other solicitors.

Never less than first class

Being a local estate agent myself I am very aware of the moving process and the work the solicitor does to get the sale through. I recommend several solicitors for business and Wolferstans is one of those I would always endorse. The team at Wolferstans are always attentive, informative and friendly in their approach and manner. Another job well done in this instance for me personally.

We used Wolferstans in a property purchase that fell through in the end owing to issues purely on the seller’s side. Carol was absolutely amazing and did everything she could to find a way through the situation and regularly kept us updated.

Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Carol or the group!

Thanks!

Wolferstans handled the sale of my former house in Millbrook and the purchase of my house in Exeter. They were pretty efficient especially in dealing with the agent for the vendors in Exeter, whose was extremely difficult to deal with.
