On the Move

I have moved home quite a few times, the last two I have used Williamsons and found them to be a pleasure to deal with at all levels . I was kept informed at all times and was supported well if the sale looked shaky. I will use them again in the future.

Rebecca Lovell representative of William Solicitors…

Unfortunately Rebecca just went along with what the court said and then charged me whatever she charged me for doing the job that she went along with what the court said she did not defend me or give me any words of advice or encouragement, I would not recommend William Solicitors. As she did not protect me as her client, this is what I feel. And this is a fact I urge you or whoever to look over my file.

Family Law is somewhere you don't really want to find yourself, your fighting for what is legally and morally correct and often not knowing what is the best recourse, all in the name of what you love the most in this world.... your children or grandchildren.
Rebecca Lovel was incredibly kind, knowledgeable and gave the kind of advice that was easy to understand and make sense of, she was always readily available and quickly replied to emails or returned phone calls. I would Highly recommend Rebecca, even now the last piece of advice she gave me resonates, I think of it often, Thankyou

Can highly recommend Williamsons @ Driffield, Theresa was absolutely "on it" with regards to processing the sale of our house. In addition, Gaynor was soooo helpful every time we had to pop in with docs etc.
