Excellent and professional service!

I used Rebecca’s services for the purchase of my home and I cannot recommend Rebecca enough. Without knowing anything about the process in advance, Rebecca offered consistent updates, answered all of my questions, was extremely quick to respond and patient with me. I felt really looked after throughout the process. Even after the house sale, she went above and beyond for me during a payment dispute with the previous owners. Rebecca is so friendly and has such high attention to detail, I couldn’t have asked for anymore!

Highly recommended

We approached Watermans to help us buy a property in Scotland. Caron Henderson provided top-notch assistance from the beginning to the end. The communication and advice were clear throughout. Everything went smoothly for us. I was totally impressed with Caron's expertise in the matter. I would highly recommend Watermans as solicitors.

Successful claim car accident

Whilst a longer than expected process to settle the claim due the other party involved in the accident, I am happy with the services provided by Cassandra and the team at Watermans, found them to be professional offering clear advice and instructions and would not hesitate to useor recommend their services.

I am a solicitor in England but was involved in an accident in Edinburgh. Michael and his firm were instructed by my insurance company. It was a relatively small claim. Despite that fact it was dealt with efficiently and I was kept informed of the progress. I was very impressed with Michael. he did a great job on my case and the outcome was excellent. Thank you Michael.

Couldn’t ask for better

Sarah just made everything simple. I knew that the claim was going to be a problem after being hit by an uninsured driver but she continued to reassure me that everything was being taken care of. Sarah kept me informed throughout the entire process so I didn’t feel as if I was left out of the loop. Safe to say I would highly recommend Sarah to anyone who needs help with an injury claim

Extremely helpful individual

Aaron was a pleasure to work with when he acted for us during the sale of our house, helping us to negotiate some difficult stumbling blocks along the way, definitely going the extra mile in what was a grey area (concerning responsibility for communal works at our property development that were authorised but not instructed). He was always quick to respond to our queries and was a calming influence at a stressful time. He even helped us with an issue we had with the seller of our property, when our solicitors acting for oure purchase were inefficient. Highly recommended.

Great service from every team member at Watermans

We used Watermans at the end of last year to help us sell our flat and purchase a house; The service from start to finish was brilliant. I always felt in the loop about what was happening, and when things got stressful, Rebecca offered explanations and sensible advice. I wouldn't hesitate to use Watermans again.

Home Move

It was my first time going through the process of moving home on my own and Evie has been superb the entire time. I had a million questions and she was always able to answer everything in a clear and concise way. There were also a few tight deadlines based on how quickly I was looking to move and she ensured that each stage was completed at the earliest possible opportunity. Thanks again for the great service!
