John Welch & Stammers Solicitors - Witney

Richard Collins

We had an appalling experience with these guys. We sought to instruct them act in the sale of my mother- in- laws property following her death late last year. My wife spoke to their senior partner Bernadette and explained that she was keen to deal with a firm who could provide a personal service rather than one that was purely process driven. This simple request at a sensitive time engendered the rudest response I have ever witnessed in over 40 years in the profession myself. Awful. Don’t use. We didn’t.

I had the misfortune of dealing with John Welch and Stammers Solicitors. They massively lacked empathy and professionalism.

The staff member I spoke to, Bernadette, was particularly unhelpful and rude. It felt like my concerns were dismissed rather than addressed. It’s astonishing how a firm that claims to specialise in legal matters can lack basic human decency.

I would not recommend this firm based on my experience. If you have any other options, I would highly recommend using another firm.

Bernadette was grossly unprofessional to my mother who had chosen their firm to support in the sale of a deceased family members estate. The way she spoke to my mother on the phone was vile, patronising and she is what can only be described as a complete bully. My mother only called to ask relevant questions as she had had 0 communication, no one answers the phone or replies to emails. Bernadette, rather than help to ease her concerns and apologise for the lack of response, laughed at her and ranted at her. If I managed this solicitors, I would be sure to keep someone like this away from clients - as she has cost you not only this business but also future business.

Never in my life have I ever used such terrible solicitors. They are the reason our house sale fell through and I cannot recommend enough to never use them.

I enquired about selling a relative’s home and the solicitor was so rude and kept talking down to me. Definitely wouldn’t recommend!!! Will be looking elsewhere.

Me and my partner have just completed on our first home in December and Kenneth Skinner acted for us. He guided us through the whole process and made everything stress free. He was always available to answer any questions directly on the phone and always replied to emails the same day. He managed to arrange a completion on the last working day of the year! Thank you Kenneth!

We have just sold our first house and in January we completed on our second house. Kenneth Skinner acted for us. Extremely professional, he talked us through the whole process and kept us up to date and stress free. This was our second time using JW&S. Quality service both times.

If I could give half a star I would, if they actually picked the phone up and Kenneth answers, put the phone straight back down and go somewhere else!!! Our house Sale collapsed, we were the end of chain of 5. All other parties stated this was due to our solicitors and how poor their communication and response rate was. Luckily we managed to move with the help of our new Solicitors, but Welch and Stammers still had the audacity to chase us for abortive charges!! Do not use unless you want endless stress and headache.
