"Excellent and effective solicitors. Very good at communicating and always ready to help. If you are looking for a commercial leasehold assignment or transfer then ask for Melissa. Without doubt the best solicitor I have ever worked with."

Harry - March 2021

"Professional, practical, attentive and all delivered with fees that put other law firms to shame. I was lucky to get recommended to MWB and now I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Special thanks to Ed, Melisa & Michelle for all your help and advice."

Phil Brewer - March 2022
