“I felt I was working with someone who not only understood me and protected my interests but also showed genuine empathy and gave sound advice.” I have a wealth of experience in navigating the complex issues around divorce, separation and children matters. In my view the key to a good outcome is finding an approach that best suits you and your family; one that achieves a sensible resolution, in the best possible way. I make use of resources such as life coaches, counsellors and facilitating face-to-face meetings and discussion, to encourage communication and early resolution. I am proud to be working with Tina in pioneering the one couple one solicitor model at One Family Law. This approach has the potential to assist many couples looking to divorce amicably, save cost and minimise the emotional trauma resulting from relationship breakdown. However, I understand that this approach will not be right for everyone. There are many options that we can consider together, to find an approach that best suits your circumstances - such as constructive negotiation, mediation, collaborative meetings, arbitration or court proceedings, or indeed a combination of these options. Once you have decided on a path that feels right for you, let’s focus on the life you want to build in future. In my experience, this can help turn a challenging and potentially disruptive chapter into something with the potential for growth and positive change. My ethos is to conduct matters constructively and sensibly, to explore creative solutions that are driven by my clients’ needs and the needs of their families; focusing on achieving what is most important to them. Get in touch when you’re ready to start this journey. I look forward to getting to know you.

amazing service
We worked with Tina in order to finalise our divorce. Tina was understanding, kind and gentle with what was a difficult process for both of us. Tina went over and above to ensure we both understood all documentation, and guided us through the process, answering any question we needed.
Both Tina and Victoria are such wonderful people, and the kinds of people you want to help you though these sort of tough times. I would recommend them to everyone (and have made several recommendations) as they both made what was a difficult process, really easy.

Divorce settlement
Victoria was beyond amazing. She was incredibly professional, helpful and empathetic. I could not have got through the settlement without her expert advice. Thank you Victoria

Legal expertise for reaching agreement on financial consent order
Having failed to reach an agreement on division of assets (following separation/divorce) after several mediation sessions and breakdown of communication, Victoria’s support and expertise was instrumental in negotiating an agreement through correspondence with my ex-wife‘s family lawyer. Advice and correspondence was very sound and efficient, meaning that the process was wrapped up as quickly as it could be while reaching the best deal possible.

Divorce and Financial settlement
From my first communication, Victoria took the time to understand what can only be described as a traumatic time for myself. Victoria listened and noted down what was needed, she was very empathetic and understood the vulnerable position I was in.
It was apparent in the early stages of our meetings that Victoria has experience and was professional at every step of the way through the Divorce proceedings.
Victoria was very patient with me and explained everything in detail when I was feeling overwhelmed. Her advice and professionalism kept me grounded in challenging and frustrating circumstances.
Victoria has not only been amazing throughout the whole process, her responses came back in a timely manner. This helped reduce my stress levels.
I would highly recommend Victoria to any of my colleagues/associates as she remained professional at all times, she was sympathetic and empathised with me throughout and I wouldn’t hesitate to contact her again in the future.

Excellent support fro Victoria Barnett
Ms Victoria Barnett has been excellent at providing me with the legal and emotional support I needed to go through, first, the separation and later the divorce process. During this period I felt that I was working with someone who not only understood me and protected my interests but also showed me genuine empathy and was willing to give me sound advice beyond my actual case. At the end all was conducted professionally and with attention to detail. Against this background I would wholeheartedly recommend Ms Victoria Barnett.

Divorce
I had excellent service from Victoria Barnett , who helped me with some issues regarding my divorce which took place a few years ago , as my ex husband decided in the past two weeks not to fulfil his agreement to me and my children . Victoria dealt with the situation very effectively and was very knowledgeable in the best approach to take .

Great Experience, Highly Recommend
Victoria was a huge help to me in a really difficult situation, not only did she provide a great legal service but she helped me to see flaws in what I was willing to agree to and very much had a 'child first' approach which I really valued. Working with Victoria took so much stress away from the situation I had been trying to manage privately and has been worth her weight in gold in helping me get to a sensible agreement on child arrangements. Could not recommend enough, no one ever really expects to be landed in a separation/child arrangements situation and with not being in the UK very long I had no knowledge of anything I should be doing - which is a pretty vulnerable position to be in when trying to manage things for your child. Victoria went out of her way to explain everything and make me feel very comfortable with how the situation would play out.
