From start to finish the communication from Anna and her team was excellent. The team kept the sale process moving along and let us know when we needed to take action to keep things on track. There were no surprises and we were happy with the result. Thank you to Anna and Laura.

We were really impressed with the professionalism of Natasha on our conveyancing case, and the speed with which she always dealt with enquiries. We are so pleased we chose to go with WGA and would have no hesitation recommending to others.

I had a fantastic experience working with Jenna Green during the process of purchasing my house. She was professional, efficient, and always kept me updated every step of the way. The communication was clear and timely, which made the process much smoother and less stressful. Any questions or concerns I had were addressed promptly and thoroughly, which gave me great peace of mind. I felt that Jenna truly had my best interests at heart and went above and beyond to ensure the transaction was completed successfully. I highly recommend Jenna to anyone looking for reliable and excellent legal assistance
. Thank you for making such a big milestone in my life so seamless!

Jenna Green, supported by Rachel Griggs, acted on behalf with both the sale of my existing property and the purchase of my next. Jenna was incredible from initial enquiry through to post completion. I was provided with all paperwork, search results, contracts in a friendly and timely manner. Most contractual enquiries where pre-empted and acted upon promptly, and if I had any questions they were answered on the same day. When I visited the office for documents to be signed and dropped off all the colleagues at Ward Gethin Archer were very friendly and happy to assist.

Jenna understood that all parties wanted to move quickly with sale and purchase and she drove this, especially when we having problems with my buyers solicitor, who were dragging their heels. I preferred to communicate through email, but on completion day when we were experience avoidable delays, Jenna called me several times to update me on the progress. I knew she was doing everything she could to get us over the line and I'm so grateful for her incredible empathy and service.

Post completion, we had a couple of issues with Solar Panels and HMRC, but again, without hesitation Jenna resolved these for me.

This was the 2nd time I'd used Ward Gethin Archer for my conveyancing and you have a client for life. Simply incredible!!

Jenna went above and beyond to get my house purchase over the line to avoid breach of contract. I had miscalculated the completion date and Jenna was superb in the way she reacted and managed to save me a potentially embarrassing situation. I cannot thank her and WGA enough. if i need conveyancing again i will look no further. Thank you.

Second time of using WGA this year, this time for a property sale ( out of area). Cannot recommend Louise and her secretary, Sally, highly enough.

It was difficult at times the other side, not WGA, were not on the ball and dragging their heels.

Louise and Sally worked tirelessly, chasing and pushing this sale through.

Their professional, friendly and persistent approach is second to none and I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

Thank you so much for all your hard work, you both deserve a drink tonight 🍷.
