Always professional, friendly and caring. It was an absolute pleasure to be looked after so well by Andy

Elizabeth-Jane Chitty, Somerset

A friend's recommendation led me to Wilkin Chapman LLP, and although they were not local to me, looking back I couldn't have made a better decision to choose them.

As a member of the Armed Forces for over 30 years I've always been on the go without really establishing permanent roots. As a consequence whenever I needed legal support I usually looked at what was locally available. When my marriage of 14 years ended, I found myself facing a difficult divorce, I knew it was essential for me to find the right legal representation owing to my Armed Forces pension and property portfolio.

The fact I was not local and the complex nature of my divorce required my legal team to have a compassionate ear, outstanding distance communications and be highly experienced in legal matters of children, property, maintenance and finances. Wilkin Chapman LLP excelled in all of the above and really got me through a difficult time with the very best results.

Client A

Thank you for the efficiency and professionalism you had when dealing with the house sale, which went through without any issues!

Client A

Very good and efficient service at all times

Client A

Andy Burnett was amazingly professional. He was not the original solicitor I had claimed with, it took 3 years, but Andy did it! Professional, amazing, dedicated, trusted, and an experienced solicitor.

Andy was organised, helpful, efficient, on the ball - first class service! An asset to the company!

Very many thanks for all the help that you’ve given us over the past weeks with resolving the problems we've had.

We employed the services of Adam Ottley at the beginning of April 2018, to literally create our articles of association, with a constitution and dissolution.

As previously, another company had misrepresented Mrs Robinson’s Homes, and the articles of association or rather the lack of them were incorrect. Thankfully, Adam took this task on, which I am really pleased to say, undertook and supplied documents within a couple of weeks. On behalf of Mrs Robinson’s Homes, I would like to sincerely thank Adam for all of his hard work, diligence and speed at producing these documents. I will recommend Adam to all of my associates and more. Thank you.

Sarah Robinson, Managing Director, Mrs Robinson’s Homes Ltd

Sarah Robinson, Mrs Robinson's Homes Ltd

Adam undertook this work [a public sector services agreement] under short timescales and was able to deftly translate his skills in preparing traditional commercial agreements into a more complex agreement between multiple public authorities.

I believe he is an excellent ambassador for your business.

Andrew McLachlan, Ouse and Humber Drainage Board

Sally provided a highly professional and knowledgeable service. She was caring, understanding, patient and clear in her advice and the procedures involved for my case

Client A

Anne and her secretary are both a credit to the Firm. 1 or 2 weeks after my husband passed, she held out a hand to shake, but pulled me into a hug. It was a ray of light at a really dark time for me.

Wilkin Chapman is my firm of choice and executors of my Will, and I will gladly and have already recommended you to a friend. I have no close friends or family, but know that on my passing things will be looked after and done correctly.

Ms Jones

Jonathan was both professional, kind and caring on the phone and in letters. He deserves a thank you, not just from myself - he was a credit to the firm.

We would like to say thank you to Rachel for all her help, commitment and also patience while the sale of our shop was going through. Rachel explained thoroughly every step of the way and also advised us on some tricky issues. If we ever needed to get in touch or needed any advise Rachel was very prompt in coming back to us, we both feel she went above and beyond. We would recommend Wilkin Chapman in the future to friends and family.

 Again, thank you for all your help.

Client A

I would like to thank you for all the care you have taken in the administration of my uncle's estate. I realise what a lot of work was involved and your professionalism and skills have been exemplary.

When my husband died in June last year my life became a sad struggle. Knowing I could rely on you and all the staff at Wilkin Chapman to deal with the business involved with it all, was a comfort.

Thank you for everything.

Thank you so much for all of your help and support during these matters. In the nicest way possible, I hope that we never have to be in contact again about divorce, but I know where to find you if I do!

Thanks again Lisa; you've been brilliant!

Client B

Please accept my gratitude for your work; effective and professional throughout

Client A

I would like to say a massive thanks to all the team that worked on our case and especially to Nichola Williamson. I don’t think we could have asked for a better barrister. 

The professionalism and reassurance you all showed from the beginning was a massive help, and without it I think the stress would have broken us a while a go. Hopefully we can all return to a sense of normality. Once again a massive thank you to you all. 

Client C

I would like to thank you both (Teresa Thomas & Tracy Rowbotham) and the rest of the HR team for the fantastic advice and support you have given me over many years.

Louise supported Julia in recovering her late mum's estate, and sent over her heartfelt thanks for her legal support at such a difficult time.

"I just wanted to take this opportunity to say thank you for all your help. In my humble opinion these matters are definitely best left to the professionals and you have done a sterling job. Many thanks once more"

Julia Wright

The day I first rang I was going through so many emotions, but the solicitor rang me back because I was so upset. He let me talk for ages and for once someone was listening and on my side. I really can’t thank Jonathan enough - thank  you.

Client A

At a time when I wasn't sure where to turn too when I left the Armed Forces, Tean Butcher provided the support and confidence that I was being taken seriously and that he would do everything he could to take my case forward. I cannot say just how important this was to me at the time. Thank you

Dr Alison Amos

Andrew is a very professional person to talk to on the phone he takes his time and explain everything in layman's terms. He gives as much advice as he can to help you. He will go through all the options and explain how we should move forward with the case and help you come to a decision that is right for you with the best results. 

I was so pleased to have such a helpful professional person to help me. As long as Andy is on your team of solicitors I would recommend your company to anybody.

Client J

From first appointment to final appointment the care and expertise was first class.

Client I

Thank you for all your assistance in my two cases and to confirm that nothing further will come to light nor be committed. I feel both times that my sentences were fair to say the very least and must put this down to your choices for barristers and prep work.

The support and respect given to me by Cathy, Judith and the ladies in the front reception area / finance team was exemplary and gave me strength to go on with the proceedings

I’d just like to thank yourself and Michelle for efforts in making sure we could complete the house sale on Friday, it was much appreciated.

Lynn Pedersen

I would just like to say a big “Thank You” for sorting out our employment contracts and staff handbook. You have taken a combination of thrown together snippets of information and turned it into a contract and handbook which far better suits our needs, better protects the company and you’ve also simplified things in the process. 

 
I would not hesitate to recommend your services to anyone else looking to review their employee contracts or handbooks.

Imogen is enormously competent and impressive. She is a very nice pleasant person, exceptionally helpful and efficient, and certainly goes beyond the call of duty. She was extremely professional, but still friendly; you felt you could really talk to her. It can be intimidating, but Imogen made it easy; she's very relaxed and caring.
