I approached them to assist with a health and welfare deputyship application. They were upfront and said that they are rarely awarded. However, I really can't say what value they added to the application and I think the fee charged was insulting for the work done.
I had to go into the office to collect paperwork, and when I got home, there were forms missing.
Then when they sent me my invoice, the £500 that I paid at the start (surely everyone has to pay deposit) was missed off!
Not very impressed with the level of knowledge in this area and I have since found out much more online.

Having received probate funds from my mum and dad's solicitors at Whitehead Monckton, I used the opportunity to buy the property which I had been renting from my landlord for a number of years. Victoria who was the solicitor responsible for me buying the property dealt with my case in a very professional efficient manner, along with her efficient secretaries, Erika and Misty. I would definitely recommend Whitehead Monckton to anybody else for dealing with legal matters

This company keep deleting the negative reviews. They completely mishandled our house sale, lost payments we made to them, never moved things along unless we rang to chase, screamed at me down the phone, and after the sale went through, it turned out that half the garden was still showing as belonging to us. The company demanded £1000 to put it right, despite it being their fault. The worst service experience I have ever had. DO NOT USE THIS FIRM.
