Professional and approachable

I had previously arranged an earlier will using a telephone service. I thought my will was ok. It was only when I wanted to update my will, and decided to use a local solicitors, that I realised how bad my original one was. Louise was professional and approachable, she highlighted things to me to help me think and decide what I wanted for myself. That guidance about what to think about was really helpful to me and wasn’t something I had experienced before. I encouraged my partner to use her services too.

Alister, helped get a very challenging situation across the line, handling all aspects of the transaction, his approach and experience allowed me to forget about the smaller details and leave him to guide me through the process, Alister and Rachael Morris are a great and capable team and I will be using them in the future and have already recommended them both to friends.

First rate service

Having only fairly recently moved into our last property, my husbands unexpected death necessitated me moving again to a smaller property, nearer family. Alister and Rachael helped me every step of the way with their professionalism, kindness and by being at the end of the phone whenever I needed answers to, what were sometimes, fairly basic questions and face to face when needed. They made selling and buying both properties as stress free as I could ever have had hoped for. I would definitely use their services again and recommend them to family and friends.

Exceptional Solicitor …. Faye Edemenson
I have never wrote a review before however my recent experience with this solicitor has impressed me so much I am compelled to put pen to paper and express my gratitude.
Faye Edemenson has been exceptional
In my recent house purchased, she was recommended to me through a friend who had recently bought a house.
From the moment Faye took on my file she worked with unmatched dedication, skill and tenacity. I was facing a tight deadline to get my house sale through and she made the seemingly impossible happen in record time …. 19 day !!

Faye went above and beyond every step of the way, staying on top of all the details, proactively communicating with all parties involved and ensuring no time was wasted, her ability to navigate what could have been a complex legal process, she dealt with it with such speed and precision which was truly impressive.

What stood out most was Faye’s determination and commitment to getting the job done! she worked ferociously, even outside of regular working hours
to ensure that everything was completed well before schedule without compromising the quality of her work.

If you are looking for a solicitor who is professional, hardworking and will truly go the extra mile for their clients, look no further. Thank you, Faye Edemenson for making what could have been a stressful experience into a seamless and successful one.
My kindest Regards
Elaine Buttery

Faye and her team dealt with the sale of a second home. She was knowledgeable and worked skillfully through a few last minute issues. Her good humour and common sense kept everything on track. We will use her team again.

Faye from Clark Willis Solicitors provided an excellent service in the recent sale of my late father's home. There are always hiccups in buying and selling houses, and this particular sale was no exception. Faye's professionalism and calm manner was very reassuring and in the end everything fell into place. I consider myself fortunate to have found such a competent solicitor. Thank you.

We have been supported by Faye Edemenson at Clark Willis during a long 18 month protracted move to Northallerton and we cannot recommend Faye highly enough. Her friendly and professional approach has been so reassuring and her efficient , prompt communications outstanding. In our opinion she sets the standard for all property solicitors to aspire to. Thanks Faye to you and the team at Clark Willis.
