WMB Law in short

WMB Law is a long-standing Telford practice on Church Street in Madeley, covering family work alongside criminal, prison and motoring teams. Its family page offers a fixed-fee first call or meeting, a genuinely low-commitment way into advice. In our review, WMB Law suits anyone who wants a familiar independent local firm with a set-price first step.

Customer reviews in our evidence come from Google alone, at 4.6 from 18 ratings. The company record stretches back two decades with an SRA listing for the Telford head office, and Lexcel accreditation is stated on the firm's site. Our judgement is that the history is the draw; what counts against it is paperwork, with no fee amounts, no published email and no insurance details.

Questions about WMB Law

Is WMB Law any good?

On the evidence, yes for a steady local hand: it sits fourth in our table, holds 4.6 from 18 Google ratings, and has served Telford for decades. The gaps are paperwork, with no fee amounts, no published email and no insurance details. Call or use the enquiry form and ask for written costs.

Is WMB Law SRA registered?

Yes. WMB Law Limited appears on the SRA register with its head office in Telford [4]. The firm's site also states Lexcel accreditation [1]. Use the Madeley office name when you search so the right entry comes back. Check the SRA number on the register yourself before you share documents.

What does WMB Law charge?

A fixed-fee initial call or meeting is offered for family matters, but the amount is not stated and no other prices are published [2]. That makes the first step fixed but unpriced. Ask what the meeting costs and what an itemised quote would follow.
