About Us

We are delighted to announce that our Axminster and Chard offices have now relocated to a single, modern premises in Axminster, known as Blackdown Chambers.

This move allows us to bring our teams together under one roof, providing a more accessible and welcoming space for our clients, as well as improved facilities for our staff. Although we are now based in one location, we remain fully committed to supporting clients in Axminster, Chard, and the surrounding areas, continuing the strong relationships we have built over many years.

With two defined divisions for business and private clients, WBW Solicitors delivers a full range of legal services to individuals and businesses, including Wills, trusts and probate, tax advice, residential conveyancing, and family law. We also offer litigation, employment law, commercial law, and commercial property services, as well as having a dedicated team of farm and estate specialists.

At WBW, we offer more than expert legal advice. We have an in-house team of Chartered Financial Planners as well as an independent Mortgage department, allowing us to cater for all your financial requirements.

If you are looking for legal or financial advice in Axminster, Chard, or the surrounding areas, please do not hesitate to contact us using the details above or the contact form below. Home visits are also available upon request if you are unable to visit our office. We look forward to hearing from you.

The new office is situated on an easy-to-access industrial site with on-site parking available for clients. It is a 25-minute walk from Axminster town centre. For those travelling by public transport, the nearest bus stop is Trinity Square (Stop B) on Chard Road (A358), and our office is just a 5-minute walk from there.

The town is ideally located near the Jurassic Coast, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, making it a popular destination for visitors who enjoy coastal walks and exploring local heritage. Axminster also boasts a range of independent shops, cafés, and local businesses, contributing to its vibrant character.

By bringing our teams together at Blackdown Chambers, we are perfectly placed to serve both Axminster and Chard, as well as nearby towns and villages, continuing to support the local communities we know and love.

Joanne Hayes

We were selling our property in the run up to the end of the Stamp Duty holiday in June 2021, so I can only imagine how many people were trying to exchange and complete in time to avoid paying full duty. Despite that, Jo was extraordinarily calm and professional and at no point did I feel I was not kept fully informed. In fact, I would go as far as to say (steady on!) that the process was actually enjoyable.
