I have moved house 10 times since 2000 and used a different solicitor each time. Each time I have struggled with a lack of communication and felt that I was just a number, or worse, an inconvenience. Then I met Alex from Ward Gethin Archer and everything changed! From start to finish, Alex was effective, informative and easy to communicate with. She took me through the process perfectly from start to finish. I really can't recommend her enough. I learnt about her through word of mouth and I feel really blessed to have found her. I wouldn't want to move house again without her expert support.

Sarah Scott was friendly, professional and always returned emails and calls and found a barrister too to represent me for a personal injury claim. Which I’m delighted to say was successful, 4 years after the accident! The delay was due to Covid, finding a court date convenient for both sides and then also the court cancelling one hearing too. First class service, cannot fault Ward Gethin Archer in any way. Thank you so much.

A professional and supportive approach helped me to deal with a protracted employment issue.

Did some work experience with the firm over the 2024 summer. Would like to recommend all those finishing up their GCSE's or in their A-levels, thinking about a career in law, to aim at getting some work experience with WGA

Extraordinarily nice people who were able to help at every hurdle necessary, even giving me much useful advice career wise.

The practical approach is a relief from academia, and can really help you grasp what it is that a solicitor does.

I highly recommend all at WGA King's Lynn.

My family and I have used this firm for many years for various instructions. You name it. They can get you through it!

Quick to respond, nothing is too much trouble, and all explained in terms you can understand which makes life a lot easier for the client.

Nicola Firth and Laura Leventhall were absolutely brilliant, as were their assisting teams and secretaries.
Much thanks to all!
