What clients say:

"I would like to thank you again for your close attention and skilled advice and experience in concluding this protracted matter satisfactorily. It was unduly complex and your patience and forbearance was as impressive as your professionalism."

"Thank you David, and on behalf of the Trustees for all your exceptionally hard work and wise counsel on this."

"The service we received from David was second to none."

"Thank you for doing this so promptly and with such courtesy David. You are a star. Happy customer."

"Helped us through a potential nightmare situation. Bringing it to a successful conclusion"

"Having gone through a complicated SPA purchase and 2 property leases for our two nursery schools, I am delighted to say that Ware and Kay (David and Peter) surpassed our expectations and have lived up to their strapline 'Good on Paper, Even Better in person'. Their attention to detail certainly kept the sellers solicitors on the toes! We will say, we had a clear advantage by using Ware and Kay! Thanks David and Peter."

"I was both delighted and surprised to hear that we had got such a result. If I ever went hunting for gold I will bring you along!"

"David Hyams was excellent and went beyond the call of duty and was very concerned to protect our interests.  Thank you very much."

"I could not have expected better treatment or more efficient service than I received. Thank you."

"Many thanks for the personal and professional assistance with the closure of our business and all associated matters. We are very grateful for the rapid conclusion on your part. We thought that you have handled this very well and appreciate your consideration of the circumstances at the time."

"We just wanted to say thank you for your support and assistance regarding the sale of the restaurant - it was a taxing time for all concerned and we appreciate that you went the extra mile to try and keep things moving."

"Many, many thanks for your care and support, when we are ready for the next bout of commercial business buying, we will get in touch!"

I enjoy corporate and commercial work because the work involves a common objective that both sides want to achieve. This means I can work with the other team in a cooperative rather than confrontational way. However, if the going gets tough then I will be uncompromising on behalf of my client. I am keen to see that my clients get what they want in the best possible timescales.

"Having gone through a complicated SPA purchase and 2 property leases for our two nursery schools, I am delighted to say that Ware and Kay (David and Peter) surpassed our expectations and have lived up to their strapline 'Good on Paper, Even Better in person'. Their attention to detail certainly kept the sellers solicitors on the toes! We will say, we had a clear advantage by using Ware and Kay!  Thanks David and Peter."

As always, you carried this out with the utmost professionalism and efficiency and we are delighted with the outcome and how the sale was conducted. I look forward to seeing you in the future as I'm sure there will be further activities for you to undertake on our behalf."

"Words cannot express my gratitude for all your help in the last few years regarding my late mothers will and estate.  Thank you all for your time and patience in achieving the results that I hoped for, for so long, in matters that at times were hard to see an end to."

"Just to say a massive thank you for ensuring our house completed and for providing such a high quality professional approach.  It was really appreciated".

"Very satisfied with the level of service received. The appropriate guidance and advice was always available when requested."

"Mike has acted for us in over 100 matters. It is always reassuring to have his experience and practical advice to support our business."

"We have used Mike's services on several occasions when we have moved house over the last 15 years. His personal attention and support at a stressful time has always been really great."

"Truly very happy with the service provided on this and previous occasions"

"I do not believe you can improve on a service that was, in our case, dealt with very efficiently and with great care.  Thank You."

"I have never been to another solicitor because Ware & Kay are excellent. Always very helpful."

"Mr M Peach & Ms Jill Butler were exceptional in their service. They were prompt, courteous and accurate in all that they did."

"Nothing! Stay as good as you are."

"[...] from the first rapid response to our enquiry, to the final settlement the service has been exemplary. Please offer to advise [telephone company] on what customer service is all about."

I have always enjoyed the varied nature of commercial property work. Understanding the nature of a client’s business and what the future holds for it allows me to advise on the suitability of a transaction, both for present and future purposes. My aim is to advise clients on these matters at the outset to ensure a smooth and prompt conclusion for all involved.


Background

Having completed the Legal Practice Course at the University of Law in York, Andrew qualified as a Solicitor in 2014 and started his career whilst remaining in his hometown of Whitby.

Andrew will provide comprehensive advice to clients on all types of commercial property transactions, including buying and selling properties and businesses, acting for landlords and tenants in the grant or renewal of leases, handling farm sales and purchases and providing advice to rural businesses of all kinds.

Andrew specialises in the following areas:


 What clients say:

"Thank you so much for everything you have done for us to get this completed. It has certainly been a very stressful one due to others. Without you with expert advice I don t know what we would have done."

"I would like to thank you for your superbly professional yet friendly service carrying out the necessary legal work to resolve my hope of taking on this brand new unit in to a reality. Despite this lease having a convoluted past to navigate through. Solidly refreshing in current times of legal need as opposed to verbal trust and a handshake to have the support and immediate attentions offered by yourself and the Pearsons Ward staff. But then I would have expected no different since using your firm on previous occasions for a similar duty and organising my will proved your firm utterly reliable and a pleasure to deal with. Rounded off by impressive honesty when refunding unused services funds paid on engagement. You are my go-to solicitors without a doubt. Many, many thanks for making this event so easy to deal with."

"Andrew Little has dealt with several of my cases in the last few years and he’s been very professional and helpful in the way he conducts business. I will not hesitate to recommend him to deal with any commercial or residential lease."

"I was first introduced to Andrew Little when he was doing his post-graduate training having graduated from University with an LLb law degree.  This was with a different legal firm back in 2013.

As the owner of a small property development company based in Scarborough - buying and selling property, raising finance with the appropriate legal documents, as well as normal day to day property matters,  my association with Andrew has developed and matured over the years.

Andrew then left that Practise and our needs were looked after by another.  It was not a pleasant experience, and I subsequently recontacted Andrew who has over the last few years handled all our property related transactions.

Dealing with any solicitor needs to be a pleasant experience, one that builds confidence and trust and equally leaves you feeling that value for money has been given.  Andrew gives all of that and the well used phrase "going the extra mile" is particularly relevant.    The legal advice you receive from any legal practise is the same, but how it is done and the 'service' provided is where it counts.  That is where Andrew shines with his strong attention to detail, excellent organisation skills, and outgoing personality.

It has been a pleasure working with him and I look forward to that relationship continuing for the future."

"Andrew provided thoughtful, prompt and professional support to our limited company when we acquired new, leasehold retail premises, late last year. His ability to tailor his support and advice to the needs of our situation and to take the time to listen to and understand our specific requirements were both refreshing and helpful in enabling a smooth and efficient transaction."

I really enjoy being a private client Solicitor. I like being able to help clients plan for the future and to support families after they have lost a loved one. It can be daunting coming to see a Solicitor and so I like to ensure that everything is explained clearly and in a personable way.

I have a real passion for the area of Private Client work. In particular, Estate and Managing Affairs work. I find it very fulfilling to be able to assist and support Clients with navigating the procedures surrounding Probate and Estate Administration, providing both legal and practical advice. 


Background

After completing my Legal Practice Course in 2011, I worked for a large law firm that specialised in Litigation. I joined the Probate department at Ware & Kay in 2015 and qualified as a Chartered Legal Executive in 2019. Working for Ware & Kay has allowed me to interact with clients on a face to face basis, which I feel is important when addressing clients' legal needs and provide support and reassurance where possible.

I was born and raised in Yorkshire but I am also proud of my Welsh heritage. In my spare time, I enjoy listening to podcasts and taking trips on the motorbike with my partner to the Yorkshire Dales and the Yorkshire Moors.

Background

Laura left college in 2007 and has worked in conveyancing since.  She started her career as a conveyancer in 2016 whilst studying CILEX Level 3 in Law and Practice (Conveyancing) and passed this in 2018.

After working in Harrogate for the last two years, Laura returns to Wetherby where she has previously worked for five years. During this time, she gained most of her experience and developed as a competent conveyancer, whilst establishing a good returning client base.

Outside of work she enjoys keeping fit and taking care of her two frenchies.

Background

I studied law at college and went on to be a legal assistant. A change in career led on to investigating fraud and money laundering on behalf of a major UK bank for their retail and business banking products, eventually focusing my career on risk and compliance.

I like to keep active through various hobbies and going to the gym.

As a private client solicitor, I deal with a variety of work day to day. In all aspects of this, I feel it is important to provide a friendly and empathetic approach. I aim to put my clients at ease and relieve the stress that legal work can involve for them, whilst providing a professional and efficient service. 


Background

Originally from Scarborough, I moved to Newcastle to study law at Northumbria University. During my time at Northumbria, I achieved a first-class honours degree, Masters and Legal Practice Course qualification. After university, I moved back home to Scarborough and started my two-year Training Contract. I qualified as a Solicitor in October 2019 and have worked in the Ryedale area throughout my career. 

My role includes the preparation of Wills, Lasting Powers of Attorney, applications for Probate and administration of estates.
