My solicitor, Sara, was fantastic from beginning to end. She listened and took all details important to me and worked as best she could alongside my wishes of how to proceed with situations. I would use Close Thornton again.

100% recommend! I instructed Sara to support with my Family matter. Her and her assistant, Claire were kind, responsive and incredibly supportive throughout the process. Sara explained the law in lay terms & is incredibly knowledgeable. Her advice and guidance was invaluable in resolving my matter in a timely manner and as high pressured as the situation was at times, I always felt in good hands with Sara and her team. Thank you!

My solicitor has been incredibly helpful and knowledgeable about my case. She and I have been in communication for over a year and I have been able to make an informed financial settlement to finalise my divorce. I would highly recommend Walker Foster Solicitors, especially because of their personal service and the excellent advice I have been given since my solicitor joined the company.
