Excellent help with making a will

Jenny did an incredible job of walking us through the process of making our wills. It was a job we had been putting off for a while, but working with Jenny made it a pleasure and she made something that we thought was complicated seem simple and understandable.

Jenny has a great ability to put people at easy and she explains everything so clearly. We found her efficient and professional and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her!

Thank you Jenny

Kept constantly in the loop.

Tracy Rosales dealt with a sale and purchase for me. She kept me in the loop, answered each and every query I had, and put up with my constant pestering. She alway had a smile, and pushed through both sale and purchase in a timely manner.

Excellent experience once again

Woodfines, and Amy Matthews in particular, have been exceptional throughout our home buying process.

Along our 18 month journey Amy provided concise and comprehensible information about some peculiar risks regarding several potential transactions. The process ended with a seamless and expedited transaction and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Woodfines and Amy Matthews.

Trademark advice and solution

We have used Woodfines for Employment Law issues for many years, but fortunately have not been in a position to require advice on commercial law until recently.

Our matter of concern was referred to Claire as we required advice on how to deal with a competitor making use of our name to divert customers to themselves. Claire was extremely thorough on her research into the use, gave advice and drafted the communication to the MD of that company, which as of this date has resolved the problem. We hope there are no re-occurrences of this, or that another competitor does not try the same, but would happily revert any matters to Claire in the future.

I've used Woodfines both personally, and in business. I'm not going to pretend they're cheap, but no firm of solicitors is. They are always thorough & supportive though, their advice is good, they act honourably, and I've always been happy with the specialists appointed to act on my behalf.
