I will say that Catherine was an excellent partner to walk the journey

steered me in the right and helped me not rise to the constant intimidation from my wifes counsel. In the end she is happy with her life long mortgage and i am happy just to be out of it.

Catherine has been my solicitor for several years now. I cannot recommend her or the company enough. They are excellent and very professional. Catherine has been a massive support and guide through a very difficult and traumatic time

I found Fiona to be absolutely wonderful in every respect in supporting my divorce. She took plenty of time to understand my situation during our original audio conversation and thereafter was quick to respond to any questions. I found her very proactive. She kept me fully informed at every stage, checking in frequently so that I felt fully supported throughout. She pointed out any deadlines that had to be met as well as all the implications of my choices.
She was very sympathetic and personable at every stage and an absolute pleasure to work with. She certainly deserves her five stars and I would not hesitate to recommend her.

Unprofessional, poor advice, spiralling costs

Woolley and Co fell short of what I would have expected a Resolution Accredited specialist to advise. Our case was uncomplicated and agreed when I first instructed you.

I trusted you would advise me. Instead, I was met with miscommunication, obfuscation, spiralling costs and delays that have had consequences for me financially.

Personal touch

Fiona Spinks, was understanding, she explained the process of my divorce and what to expect at each stage. At times I was overwhelmed with the process and unsure that I would have a positive outcome from such a traumatic phase in my life. She provided a personal touch and encourage me to remain positive and focused on my future. She replied to my calls and emails promptly and kept me informed at each stage. She was kind, friendly and supportive.

Difficult Divorce

I would highly recommend Rebecca Franklin. After a long difficult divorce I finally have the outcome that I needed. Rebecca has been supportive and informative and is able to deal with difficult situations in a clear and efficient manner. She has been understanding of how difficult my situation has been and has always put me at ease. I am eternally grateful to her for her knowledge and experience as it has assured me of the outcome I wanted.

Woolley and Co are the best

Woolley and Co were recommended to me from a friend after two other legal firms let me down.
I am so glad I used Woolley and Co, their staff are knowledgeable and empathetic. They put me at ease and got the result I wanted.

Friendly, knowledgeable

Had a free no obligation chat with Sue Harwood regarding my divorce and financial settlement. Extremely helpful chat and spoke in terms I could easily understand for what can be at times a complicated subject. Thank you Sue. Would recommend.

Fantastic support and service

Rebecca was very knowledgeable, she was quick with responding to me, she knew what she was talking about. I had a difficult ex husband but with her support I was able to get a financial disclosure In the end, it was a long process (because the ex wouldn’t sign paperwork) but with Rebecca’s support we managed to get it completed.
Would highly recommend and if I need anything else in the future I will contact her .

I spoke to several divorce lawyers before picking Rebecca and I know I made the right choice.

I felt from the first moment we spoke that Rebecca was in my corner, her advice has been excellent and she's made a difficult process so much easier. Her response time was really good and always available on the phone. Fees are clear and transparent so no surprises at all along the way.

If you're looking for a divorce lawyer I strongly recommend you choose Rebecca.

Rebecca Franklin in the best solicitor I have ever dealt with. She was a brilliant communicator, provided expert legal advice and delivered it almost immediately every time I needed to reach her. 11/10. Thanks Rebecca.

Not a good experience with this company. Sent me incorrect invoice and didn't call me back to discuss and then sent me emails threatening me with court action. AVOID

Rebecca has been fantastic from start to finish, she took the time to explain what I needed to do and what everything would cost and how long it would take etc before making any payments and before I even decided to instruct her, she has been very professional and always explained everything in detail making the divorce process less stressful, would definitely recommend Rebecca without a doubt.
