Good, fair, friendly...
My husband and I worked with Mr. Whewell on a Real Estate transaction, he was professional and responsive which is much more than I could say for my prior attorney but then was also pleasant to talk to, the entire firm seems to have an atmosphere of family which I appreciated a lot.

It was a pleasure working with Mr. Whewell
I found Mr. Whewell professional and thorough in my dealings with him. He kept me informed and negotiated on my behalf on a real estate transaction he handled for me. He made the experience a lot less stressful than it could have been. I would definitely contact him again for assistance.
