Exceptional service

When dealing with family death and loss and then the probate, you are generally not yourself and therefore from the initial call to book in a consultation to the granting the probate, this company excelled in all parts and especially putting you at ease and working with you through a difficult period, with professionalism and understanding in what I was thinking would be a long drawn out affair. The communication, the service was excellent for every step of the process and when Probate was submitted on the 6th January, I was not expecting to have it granted in 10 days!! So thank you Mike and the whole team.

Long standing customer review

I have been a client of Wadsworths for a number of years & have dealt with different departments & a number of employees.
In the main my dealings have been with the conveyancing team, which is led by Gemma.
Gemma is a pleasure to deal with, always very helpful & extremely knowledgeable on everything property related.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Wadsworth & Gemma & i look forward to many future property transactions being processed on my behalf in Gemma’s safe hands.

Fantastic service

Victoria Wadsworth of Wadsworth solicitors I can not recommend highly enough for dealing with my late father’s estate.

Nothing was too much trouble at a very stressful time. Always explained everything clearly and honestly.

A five star service.

Totally recommended

We visited Wadsworths Solicitors to discuss probate, we met with the director himself, Michael Wadsworth who was such a lovely guy. He was super friendly as are all their staff and so knowledgeable, helpful and honest, a quality some lack in this day and age.

We would definitely recommend Wadsworths Solicitors, they get five star recommendation from me

Average

Professional and courteous firm, reasonably priced nothing and particular to steer clear of, however they have lost the personal touch of Duncan Clarke I didn’t feel I had someone on my side looking to update me or progress my case, I very much felt just another number or email in a file to be ticked off. Wouldn’t use again myself as DC had previously set the bar much higher.

Update of will and power of attorney

We first used Wadsworths solicitors back in 2000 to write a will, excellant service with explanations along the way. We have since used them in 2013 and most recently in 2024 to bring our will up to date and put in place the power of attorney, even though we have moved from Birmingham to Cornwall , there was no problems encountered, a very obliging company making sure all needs are met and fully explained .

After dealing with Wadsworth solicitors sorting out my parents wills and power of attorney I decided there was no place better to go to sort out mine and my husbands, dealt with Michael who is so approachable and friendly and clearly explains everything in detail with no legal jargon so you understand everything involved, would definitely recommend to everyone

Having realised that our wills needed updating, we did so with Michael Wadsworth, even though we had moved away from the area a few years ago. It proved to be a good decision as the whole process was completed quickly in a very friendly and efficient way.

We recently updated our Wills with MIchael Wadsworth at the Shirley Office. Michael was extremely efficient and approachable in providing legal advice, updating our Wills, corresponding and making appointments to see us straightaway. The whole process was completed in a week or so! I would certainly have no hesitation in recommending Wadsworths.
