Wednesday 14 February 2007 2:32 PM
A ‘Virtual’ firm of solicitors which is redefining the way the way law is practised is launching a base in Cirencester. Online law firm Woolley & Co, which breaks the mould of how traditional law firms operate by providing virtual legal services for clients via the internet, is unveiling a base in the town with lawyer Carol Whereat at the helm. Mrs Whereat, a family law specialist who until recently worked in Swindon, will deal with cases for clients in Cirencester and the surrounding area from this website. She said: “I am delighted to join Woolley & Co and am looking forward to working with clients in the Cirencester area which is where I live. The firm’s fresh approach to providing legal support to clients is quite unique and has already proven to be a winning formula in other parts of the country. I am looking forward to helping develop the business still further. “Woolley & Co’s success lies in plain English – being able to interact with clients via web-based technology, email and telephone, without bamboozling them with legal jargon.” Andrew Woolley, Woolley & Co senior partner, said: “We would like to welcome Carol to the team. Having qualified to specialise in family law in 1998 following her own divorce she is ideally placed to understand how clients feel in such cases and can help them efficiently with a high level of understanding. “She has advised many clients on marital problems since she qualified and is a Fellow of the Institute of Legal Executives and has expertise in all aspects of family law, including separation and divorce, financial settlement and cases involving children. “With such an excellent reputation in her field of expertise Carol will be a huge asset to Woolley & Co and we are looking forward to working with her.” For advice on divorce and family matters contact Woolley & Co on 01789 267377 or email here
