Great firm to deal with
I came to Goody Burrett to help with an aspect of my divorce. I needed help with a specific part of the process and not the entire thing. Having spoken with one or two firms Susan was the only one who appeared to understand exactly what it was I needed. She answered a number of questions (without charge) over a few months until I was ready to proceed.
Once I was ready to proceed Helen was extremely quick and diligent in coming back to me. We swiftly and efficiently navigated the process seamlessly and I was very impressed with the ease at which everything went through. I cannot recommend Sue or the firm enough and would encourage anyone in a similar position to do the same.
Thank you for all your help at what could have been a difficult time.

Divorce
After an ongoing and searingly never ending, expensive and stressful ongoing divorce I decided to try and represent myself. It was then I came across the firm by chance. I met with Susan, who gave me clear advice exploring all options with me. Which is something I didn’t get previously. I can only say thank you.

Professional and Extremely Helpful
Had a false ex-parte non molestation order made against me.
Goodyburret supported military personnel which gave me a very helpful meeting with them.
The team helped me with advise and also in writing a letter to send to the courts which strongly helped my case.
Would use Goodyburret again if I was in need of a good legal team.

Divorce advice
I spoke to Sue Devereaux regarding a financial matter relating to my divorce.
All I can say is that I wish that I had found her earlier to manage my divorce proceedings, as it would saved me much so much stress !
She was wonderful.
She's very clear in her communication and well informed. Sue had a good understanding of my situation and dealt with my query in a lovely compassionate manner.
Thanks Sue.

Easy, straight forward service
I have used Goody Burrett a couple of times over the last 2 years. The first time they helped me to see my legal position regarding childcare and financials several years after my divorce. They wrote a fantastic letter to my ex which resulted in my child being returned to my care. Recently they helped me with a change of name deed which was completed and ready for me later that day. Fantastic, fast, professional service and lovely, understanding people do deal with. If I have need in the future I will use again.

Helpful, informative, kind
I would highly recommend Goody Burrett�s services and can�t thank the team enough for their professional, helpful and supportive work throughout the last few years. I have used Goody Burrett before and will certainly do so again if I need to. There are no other solicitors that I would want to use and my special thanks goes to Cavelle and Sue for how helpful, informative, kind and understanding they have been to me during what has been a very difficult time.
