Incredible Service from Start to Finish

We recently worked with Janine Toland at W& AS Bruce for the purchase of our new home in Bathgate, Scotland, and we couldn't have been more impressed with her service. Janine's knowledge, efficiency, and commitment to her clients were truly outstanding. She made what can often be a daunting process feel smooth and stress-free, guiding us through every detail with clarity and care.
Janine's ability to handle everything with professionalism and warmth stood out to us. Her consistent updates and quick responses put us at ease and gave us full confidence that everything was in good hands. We are immensely grateful to her and the team at W& AS Bruce for making the experience so positive.
We highly recommend Janine Toland and W& AS Bruce to anyone in need of property solicitors. Their expertise and dedication make them an excellent choice for managing all your property needs!

Professional and efficient

I went to W&AS Bruce to get help
When my mum suddenly passed as I didn’t even know where to start with her estate, Janine was exceptional and very helpful and made this so easy and explained everything to me and sorted everything out for me. I was sent everything I needed to complete to finalise everything quickly and it kept this process very simple for me at a very difficult time. I can’t stress enough how amazing this practice is.

Would highly recommend

We recently used W & AS Bruce for selling our property and our new house purchase. We had used them previously and had been very impressed.. Again, the service was excellent and the costs involved were very reasonable.
Janine at the Broxburn office works extremely efficiently and keeps you up to date with everything you need to know or do. She answers any queries very quickly and herself which we appreciated.
We have recommended Janine and W & AS Bruce to several family members who have also been very pleased with the service provided.

First Time Buyer Experience

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

As a first-time buyer, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Omar Mohammed and his secretary, Denise, made everything so easy and straightforward. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and exceptional customer service were outstanding. Nothing was ever too much trouble for them, and they were always there to guide me through the process. Being a first time buyer is a nerve wracking experience but I was reassured and guided through the whole process. I truly appreciate all their help and support—I couldn’t thank them enough!

The quality of service and work carried out was excellent, and I would highly recommend Omar and WAS Bruce to anyone. 10/10! 👏

Excellent work across two complicated files in Probate and Conveyancing that due to the nature till much longer than was usually necessary, but I’m grateful Janine Toland stayed the course achieving successful outcomes in both cases. I live outside the jurisdiction of Scottish Law so efficient, professional, timely communications were a relief and the knowledge, understanding and implementation of m cases and appropriate Scottish Law was invaluable.

I would highly recommend this practice.

Excellent - I have bought and sold a few times and this is the second time dealing with this team and I can’t recommend them highly enough.

Thorough, timely, accurate. All the things you want when people are dealing with your time and money.

This is the only team I would use going forwards. Thanks again
