Flat Purchase

5

Excellent service from the very beginning to the dramatic end which resulted in completion on 31 March 2025 - just in time before the Stamp Duty increased !! Carol and Sophie have completed a fantastic job to get everything sorted, explained and transacted over the last few months.

Thoroughly recommend and would certainly use again.
Good use of the Wolferstans App which certainly sped up a number of elements where paperwork / signatures are required.

Finally, sincere Thanks to both Carol and Sophie for their splendid service and keeping me fully updated during the entire process.

Excellent service from Carol and Sophie

5

I used Wolferstans for my recent property purchase and I could not recommend Carol and Sophie enough. I was a first time buyer and they made everything so simple and easy for me to understand. They dealt with everything efficiently and were always happy to answer any questions I had. I would like to thank them both and would have no hesitation is using their services again in the future!

Friendly and Pwrsonal Service

From the beginning I was always dealt with in a friendly and efficient way by Heidi in the Plymstock office and by Sophie who handled the paperwork. Not the most exciting job but done very professionally.

House Sale of the Century ! 😉

5

Our two Solicitors from Wolferstans Plymstock Plymouth ( Carol and Sophie) acting for the sale of our property ( we had not moved for the past 23 years !) were extremely informative , worked in our best interests on more than one occasion in the face of adversity !
They gave constant updates via an app and were also always readily available at the end of a telephone line giving that added personal touch .

Professional and helpful

Carol and Sophie have been brilliant.
A tricky and slightly stressful sale due to multiple other factors but they were always professional and helpful, with a steadfast approach. I don’t underestimate the work they put in - overall a great service.
Wolferstans also use an app and I had direct contact with Carol and Sophie throughout the process who always replied really quickly. Such a refreshing approach and highly recommend.

Client First Approach

5

The Conveyancing Department led by Carol Foster and our main contact throughout Paralegal Sophie Farrant have been excellent. Great communication throughout, in what became a more complex property sale when our mother passed away after a short illness a week before we were due to complete on the sale. At this point we engaged with Wolferstans Probate and Wills Department as thought this would help and give confidence to our buyer and others in the chain.
Clearly great work took place behind the scenes with Estate Agent and other parties and the sale was concluded in less than 2 months from the original date with Probate having been obtained very speedily by Wolferstans. The culture within Wolferstans runs from top to bottom. From going to meetings or just to sign documents, the experience from the moment you enter reception to when you leave is excellent, friendly and highly professional. Always putting the client first and always having everything ready for the appointment.
