What people say

  • “We cannot thank Rebecca Roberts enough for her expertise, kindness, and unwavering support during one of the most difficult times in our family’s life. Rebecca not only brought exceptional knowledge of SEND law and educational rights, but also genuine compassion and empathy that made us feel seen, heard, and protected.

    She was always patient, thorough, and incredibly responsive. What felt overwhelming suddenly became manageable, simply because Rebecca was by our side. She empowered us with information, stood firm when we were unheard, and offered calm reassurance at every step. A truly outstanding solicitor and a wonderful person. We recommend her with all our hearts.”

    Denise
  • “Best law firm I’ve come across! Andrea is a no nonsense and let’s just get it done kind of person. She and her team are just exceptional. They are hardworking, care about their clients and go out of their way to help. I’ve used them 3 times now and each sale has been as quick as they can make it. I cannot recommend them highly enough. I wouldn’t use anyone else.”

    Sarah Smith
  • “The whole process of making a will was much easier than I imagined. Adam explained everything and answered my many questions. He was very patient when I changed my mind (a few times!) and his advice was incredibly helpful. I will return to Amicus when it’s time to arrange my LPA. I’m in good hands with them.”

    Julia O’Dowd
  • “Top draw solicitors, respectful, experienced and overall professional experience.
    From the instance connecting with Linda I knew I was in the right hands. Massive thank you to Isabela l, who did and amazing job and to Ebony who was always on the case and friendly. Can’t recommend enough.”

    Matt Browning
  • “Absolutely excellent service from David & Lynne at the Minehead office from start to finish during the sale of my late mothers flat. The communication from David and Lynne made the sale so much less stressful. I would recommend Amicus 100% and will be using them again in the future. Simply the best. Thank you.”

    Gary Ellmer
  • “I had an excellent experience working with Erin Darling-Finan at Amicus Law solicitors . From the very beginning, she was professional, responsive, and incredibly knowledgeable. She took the time to explain everything clearly and made a complicated legal process much easier to understand.

    What stood out most was her attention to detail and genuine care for my case. I always felt like I was in safe hands, and her advice was both practical and strategic. Communication was prompt throughout, and I was kept fully informed every step of the way.

    Thanks to their expertise and dedication, we achieved a successful outcome. I would not hesitate to recommend Erin Darling-Finan to anyone looking for a trustworthy and skilled legal professional.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Whether you are buying a coastal property, planning your estate, or navigating a family matter, it is natural to have questions. Our Weymouth team has put together answers to some of the things we are most commonly asked.

If your question is not covered below, or you would simply prefer to speak with someone directly, our Weymouth office is always happy to help. You can call us, drop us an email, or fill in our contact form and a member of the team will get back to you as soon as possible.

Do you handle coastal and period property conveyancing in Weymouth?

Yes. Our Weymouth conveyancing team is experienced in acting on a wide range of property types including coastal properties, period buildings and leasehold transactions which are common in the Weymouth area. We provide the same clear and efficient service regardless of the complexity of the property or the title.

What happens to jointly owned property during a divorce? 

The family home and any other jointly owned property will need to be dealt with as part of the financial settlement on divorce. The options include one party buying out the other, selling the property and dividing the proceeds, or in some cases delaying a sale until children have reached a certain age. Our family law team will advise you clearly on all the options available to you.

How do I start the probate process in Dorset? 

The first step after a bereavement is usually to locate the will and establish whether a grant of probate is needed. Our Weymouth team can take on the full administration of the estate on your behalf, or advise you on what steps to take if you prefer to manage the process yourself. We will always explain your options clearly from the outset.

Can I update my will after a major life change?

Yes, and it is strongly recommended. Events such as marriage, divorce, the birth of children or grandchildren, or a significant change in your financial position are all good reasons to review and update your will. Our team can advise you quickly and efficiently on any changes that need to be made.

Do you offer family law mediation in Weymouth? 

We can advise on the mediation process and help you prepare for it. Mediation is often a constructive and cost effective way to resolve disputes over finances or children without going to court, and our Resolution accredited team will always explore it as an option where it is appropriate.
