Merryweather Williams 31 College Street, Burnham-on-sea TA8 1AS

"Picture this. You contact a plumbing company to ask for advice, which you make clear you are willing to pay for, after all, you're dealing with professionals. The receptionist at the company says they will "email the plumbers at the firm and see if anyone is able to take on your problem". Over a month later and after zero response, would you recommend that plumbing company? Of course not. Now replace the words plumbing/plumbers with the word solicitor."

"I didn't deal with MW on a conventional topic - I was in a tricky situation and needed help with a meeting room. They were kind enough to help me out and provide me with a room. The staff were friendly and very helpful. I'm very grateful!"

"They dealt with the conveyancing for me on a house and I purposely chose a local solicitor over a national solicitor and I'm glad I did. It was a complicated purchase and their knowledge and detail were excellent. So to their communication, no switchboards and waiting times, you could always speak to someone when you wanted to. All in all, it was dealt with very quickly and professionally so would happily recommend."

"Despite the failings of other "professionals" in my house sale chain, Ian Merryweather and his team were nothing but professional, proactive and precise, with great communications throughout. I will be using them in the near future for another property transaction."

"Hallam handled the sale of my father's building plot superbly. He was knowledgeable, easy to get hold of, responsive, helpful and reassuring. He handled all the inevitable complications efficiently. My father and I were both very impressed and we would certainly use Merryweather Williams again for other matters and recommend them. Good value too."
