I recently looked into them and they seemed really good, but a bit of delving and I found warnings on other writer sites saying to stay away from them.
Apparently they have been in trouble legally and have changed their name to the Writers Literary Agency to try to gain trust from writers.
They promise all the help that is needed for your book/story to be presented to publishers with no cost from them unless they get you a publishing deal, then taking 10% of what you get.
Somebody tested them and sent the entire book of Pride and Prejudice to them to be reviewed, only changing the name and they were accepted by the company.
The company told the person who had sent the book to them that there was a great deal of errors and they would happily sort these out with a charge.
Others have submitted their actual work to them and lost a great deal of money.
The director of the company is called Sherry.
Just thought I should warn people on here.
I'd heard the name but hadn't looked into them as yet. After reading this, I doubt I will. Thanks for the heads-up.
