Janice Courtenay

I had been worrying for a very long time over the need to alter my Will. I had many different problems that I needed to sort out before actually deciding how to compile my new Will. Janice visited me at home, we had a lengthy discussion over different issues and she helped me greatly to sort out my concerns. Janice started the process after discussion and after considering her first draft, I was able to make clear decisions on my final wishes and was able to make amendments to arrive at my final Will. I was very grateful for her help and advice.

Lucy Davis

Simply faultless.

Typically, selling/buying a house can be stressful, but not this time. I simply cannot fault Lucy. She has been incredible from beginning to end. Even when I’ve emailed at 17:15, I had reply within 5 minutes – every single time. When we encountered issues with the other parties, Lucy kept us updated and offered the best solution, which was superb. I will be buying properties in the future and I will not be using anybody other than Lucy. An absolute credit to WBW.
