Great Service from Pippa regarding joint-Will and Inheritance Tax advice. She was professional, friendly, knowledgeable and followed up regularly. She answered all questions we had and was very thorough and efficient. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend, would definitely use again if required. Very impressed with whole team at Giles Wilson, from front-of-house to senior level. Many thanks.

I have recently had to utilise the services of Elliot Cousins with regards to possession proceedings. From the first time that I spoke to him I felt full confidence in his abilities, he came across as very knowledgable and his manner put me at ease. Throughout the process Elliot provided me with the necessary information, guidance and I trusted his advice. I have now regained possession of my premises, so thank you to Elliot and the team at Giles Wilson.

Philip Giles has just brokered a very successful outcome in my case, in fact the exact settlement I was looking for. His logical and very to the point (but never forceful) navigation of the case meant that it was settled without the need to go to court; very well manoeuvred. Exactly the lateral thinking and proactive skills you look for in a solicitor representing you. Extremely happy. Great firm, they never let me down.

My previous solicitor charged me 4000.00 and took nearly 11 months and still didn't tell me what Giles Wilson did in two weeks and cost more or less an eighth of the price of what I previously paid. That in-itself speaks volumes and from my point of view excellent service. I will definitely use them again if I have too with total confidence.

I must admit, I went in with a somewhat jaded view of solicitors and them being more interested in revenue generation than serving clients but have been happily proved wrong in this instance. Right from the start it was clear they were asking all the right questions, were focussed in what I wanted to achieve whilst trying to keep things as smooth as possible. Communications with myself and 3rd parties were handled professionally and tactfully.
The work was handled to my satisfaction and discussions were always constructive and helpful. All in all I was very impressed and would definitely use them again should the need arise.

Having just received my Decree Absolute I would love to thank Richard at Giles Wilson for his amazing work over the last year. Richard has been very professional and has always kept me up to date with any progress that had been made. His knowledge was incredible as you would hope and would highly recommend Richard and Giles Wilson to anyone looking for a quality service.

My issue was handled by Pippa - who is not only very but also kind and passionate about helping clients. I would recommend this firm to everyone, even youngish-to-middle-aged people who need Wills drawn up or even a general legal MOT, to get in touch with Pippa and her colleagues at Giles Wilson Solicitors.

I have recently used the services of Pippa and Zara at Giles Wilson. Both have been extremely helpful and patient in explaining the process I was following. Emails were responded to quickly and efficiently and I found their overall manner both professional yet friendly. I would recommend their services and would certainly use again if needed.

I had no previous knowledge of this firm before doing my own researches to form my own view as to their suitability, so they did not come with any recommendation. However, I will definitely be recommending them myself in future to anyone who asks. From my initial approach via their contact form and the prompt, clear and courteous response, to an early appointment date and time to suit my convenience, and the professional, clear and helpful advice I received from Elliot Cousins, I could not have been better served or better pleased. I am very happy to post a positive review of my experience with this firm and would not hesitate to consult the excellent members of the Giles Wilson team in future.

I contacted Pippa Bavington regarding advice on Inheritance Tax planning for my mother -in-law. We were quickly offered an appointment which fitted our requirements. On the day, Pippa was very helpful, particularly, due to personal circumstances, there was three of us meeting with her. The information was clear and professionally delivered, but with a warmth, I had not anticipated.
The follow up letter again was clear and provided us with the assurance we required. All three of us found the experience very helpful and we would have no hesitation in recommending Pippa to deal with any legal issue.

I have used Giles Wilsons services three times in the past years, All solicitors and staff have treated me with great respect and kindness at all times, and of late as I am now not so well off have been charged the bear minimum with junior staff doing the mundane work to keep costs down whilst not compromising the professionalism of the practice, I would certainly use them again if the need should arise and would certainly recommend their services to all.

I used Giles Wilson Solicitors to help with the minefield associated with my late mother who didn't leave a will. Pippa was kind, efficient and professional in this difficult time for my family. Costs were explained and upfront so no surprises when receiving the final invoice. Speedy communications were also welcomed as I don't like procrastinating! I would use again even though this service is not local to home.

I have used Giles Wilson solicitors a few times now for different things, and I have nothing but good to say about them. They will always put you in touch with the right person for your inquiry and make you feel welcome and at ease if you visit the offices. They have never let me down, great people to do business with
