Our firm dates back to the late nineteenth century when Raymond Trotter established a Solicitors Practice in Epping. Thomas Chapman joined in the 1920s, and Herbert Whisker in the 1940s. Trotter Chapman & Whisker practised under that name for the next five decades. By the 1990s the firm was known as Whiskers and in May 2008 the partnership of Whiskers Solicitors was incorporated under the style Whiskers LLP. Read more...

An Excellent Service

Whiskers have been absolutely superb. I have always found their advice very clear and easy to understand. They always respond to questions quick and provide a great value service. I have used them on two occasions now and on each occasion had a transaction complete before a rise in stamp duty took effect. The first was a few years ago where the matter was dealt with by Gerry Smith. The current matter is being dealt with by Azra Haque. Both have been excellent to deal with. So thank you both very much!

Excellent service from Mark Case

As a property solicitor myself, I was always going to be an exacting client and having always done my own conveyancing in the past, instructing someone else to look after my sale and purchase was hard!
I needn't have worried. Mark Case was professional and efficient, and kept me informed throughout. He was assisted by Sara Coleman, who was a joy to deal with, kept in regular communication and was a rock when chain issues got frustrating. I couldn't have asked for more, and compared with other parties in the chain, I know I had the A Team.

Sale of property

Our experience of using Whisker for the sale of our house was extremely good. The team at Whiskers provided us with a clear quotation was not exceeded and they were able to respond to our instructions quickly. After the initial meeting to hand over document they proceeded with the transaction promptly keeping us informed at each step of the process.

Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Caroline and her team

This review is for a different branch.

Caroline and her team have honestly been a breath of fresh air. My experience of solicitors in the past hasn't been great, and I was sceptical about how our house conveyancing with Whiskers would go. We had two experiences, one was pretty complex and had a number of legal issues. Caroline's advice was very clear and practical, but also handled with kindness and empathy as we had to make the difficult decision to withdraw from the sale. Our second experience was probably as simple and straight-forward as it gets, approximately 6 weeks from offer to completion, and again the service was exceptional. Michelle kept us informed all the way through the process, taking the time to call us and find ways we could speed things up as we were in a time-sensitive situation. I wouldn't hesitate to use Whiskers again, and would absolutely recommend them!

Dear Whiskers.
I just wanted to say thankyou from myself and my family and on behalf of my Mother. Shalini Subherwal went out of her way to ensure that matters of the last will and testament were completed in an expeditious manner going out of her way and attending the hospital. Showing a compassionate and and professional manner during the entire experience. Always makes herself available and makes things easier for us at this time. Thoroughly recommend. Thankyou Whiskers and thankyou Shalini.

Shalini has shown professionalism and empathy from day one. Her understanding of my requirements and needs was clear and demonstrated throughout the time it took to complete the matter.
My family have been using Whiskers LLP for many years, covering a number of matters and I would thoroughly recommend Shalini to anyone looking for family law advise.
