We needed advice on a possible review or update of our wills and other family legal documents, so we made an appointment with Jamie Roche. He was incredibly helpful and took us through all our documents, and his explanations were easily understood……not always the case when discussing legal matters! Our experience could not have been more positive, and we would certainly recommend Watkins and Tapsell Solicitors to anyone who needs friendly, professional advice on legal matters. Thank you to the team at Watkins and Tapsell, and a huge thank you to Jamie Roche.

I was recommended by a friend to engage Watkins Tapsell, I was very impressed with their service. Chloe Pack was the solicitor assigned to my issue and I was very impressed with her prompt professional attention to my case. I would not hesitate to recommend Tapsell solicitors just ask for Chloe.

From my initial phone enquiry till the work was completed, it was all smooth process. Peter helped me with franchise agreement and advised me of costs before work commenced also additional costs that could occur along the way. I also like to thank Mitchell & Adam who I had met at a local networking event, that's how I found out about all the services that they offer.
