Services
A claim can be brought if the accident happened within the last three years and it was not your fault or you are only partly responsible for the accident. You could be entitled to recover compensation for the injuries you have sustained and recover any loss of earnings incurred as a result of the accident.
If you wish to be known by a different name you can change your name at any time, provided you do not intend to deceive or defraud another person. There is no legal procedure to follow in order to change a name. You simply start using the new name. You can change your forename or surname, add names or rearrange your existing names.
Civil disputes can arise from many situations and can fall under almost all areas of UK law. Most civil disputes do not end up in court, and those that do often don't go to a full trial. Many are dealt with through mediation (a process taking place outside a court to resolve a dispute) or by using established complaints procedures.
Buying or selling a house is a complicated task involving vendors, purchasers, and estate agents and ploughing through reams of paperwork and legal jargon. Having a competent and professional conveyancing solicitor like Woodgate & Co can help simplify this process. We provide a friendly, efficient and helpful legal service to assist you with the sale of your home and purchase of an alternative property.
Dying intestate can pose particular problems for an unmarried partner, because he or she has no automatic rights under the intestacy rules. But if the partner can show that he or she lived with you as man or wife throughout the two years prior to your death, he or she can claim a share of your estate under this Act.

My business partner and myself have recently conducted a large transaction and used Woodgate and Co for the legal procedures. Linda and Sam were both highly professional and efficient. All our queries were dealt with promptly, and they kept us informed throughout the process. I would have no hesitation in employing their services again in the future, and can thoroughly recommend them.

I can only speak from my experience with my house purchase. They may be "cheap" but you certainly get what you pay for. Today I have had to drive a 5 hour round trip to pay and close my file with them and personally drive my file to another more competent solicitor to complete my purchase at the 11th hour. This is purely due to the firm's stubbornness to send across their PI insurance to my mortgage lender as requested. On collection of my file I pleaded with them to change their minds on this matter as it would cost me significantly and I could lose the purchase. I was confronted with hostility

Sam Rogers at Woodgate & Co handled the sale of my mother's home and couldn't have been more helpful. Always quick to respond to e-mails and calls I always felt she was in control of proceedings and was easily able to adapt as buyers came and went!
Very happy with the service we received and would definitely recommend.

We have used Woodgate and Co three times now and on each occasion they have been excellent. Communication is prompt, questions are answered immediately. In our latest dealings, Woodgate and Co acted for us on a house sale - it was completed extremely quickly.
We don’t live anywhere near their office but this hasn’t mattered in the least. We have recommended them to family members and friends and wouldn’t use any other firm ourselves.
