More Than A Legal Team
I’m only at the start of my journey through the divorce process, ready to file, but I couldn’t have done this without Samantha’s guidance and patience. It’s taken 5 months for me to reach this point and I’m grateful to Samantha for her advice and support and for giving me space when I needed it. I’m now in the best position, legally and emotionally, to begin the hard part all thanks to Samantha.

Reaching the point where you feel ready to begin divorce proceedings can be a journey in itself, and five months of careful consideration is an important part of that.

Thank you for sharing your experience so far. We will make sure your kind words are passed on to Samantha.

I had an initial consultation with Rebecca Bridson regarding a divorce - she was immensely helpful and aided me in a way that felt like she had my best interests at heart, not hers or the firm's. Would recommend without a second thought.

Thank you for recommending Rebecca so wholeheartedly. We will make sure your kind words are shared with her.

Charlotte B was fantastic
Charlotte B was a great source of support and guidance throughout my time in family court. She was quick to respond, detailed in her advice and very flexible when needed. I hope I don't need support with family court again, but if I do then I will certainly be reaching out to Charlotte

Messy Divorce
I was going through really messy divorce, including child molestation order that was filled against me and financial order. Rukhma was excellent, quick, knowledgeable and efficient dealing with my ex wife-solicitors and after 2.8 years of legal battle and numerous pre-court preparation the financial order was agreed and non-molestation order was dropped. If you can afford them - highly recommended.

Peter, after almost three years of difficult proceedings, reaching a resolution must feel like a significant moment.

It is wonderful to hear that her support ultimately helped bring matters to a conclusion.
Thank you for your recommendation and for recognising Rukhma’s hard work throughout such a lengthy and challenging period.

I instructed Stowe for my divorce earlier this year. Hollie and Jennifer were both incredibly kind and understanding from the onset, during a very difficult time for myself and my family. As the divorce progressed, Jennifer advised candidly but also spoke to me warmly and with empathy, not only about costs but the reality of the situation, which I’m happy to say is now resolved. I’m very grateful and thankful to Jennifer, and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her if anyone else is in a similar situation.

Reaching the end of a divorce with matters resolved can bring a real sense of relief, and we are so pleased that Hollie and Jennifer supported you through that journey.
Your comments about Jennifer’s approach are particularly meaningful. Honest advice about both the realities of the situation and costs is important, but delivering that advice with warmth and empathy can make a difficult process much easier to navigate.
Thank you for placing your trust in the team and for recommending Jennifer so warmly. We will make sure your lovely feedback is shared with both Jennifer and Hollie.

Peace of Mind & Clarity on the Divorce Process
I was heading into divorce proceedings with absolutely no idea of what to expect. Melanie was able to talk me through everything and explain what was the right route for me to take. I left with a much better understanding of what laid ahead and put my mind completely at ease.

Professional, supportive advice
We are at a relatively early stage in a very stressful process but I have found Lucy to be professional, friendly and supportive in her guidance. I have found her to be responsive and proactive, working with her team and making suggestions in relation to potential courses of action to facilitate family relationships and the legal process and how to keep things as child centred as possible.
