Family Matter
Richard Ronaldson was referred to me by a friend for a family divorce
I actually enjoyed meetings with him and his team, even though I was aware of the cost.
The team tried to negotiate a fair settlement with my ex-wife but to no avail, as every attempt rebuffed and escalated.
I would suggest that anyone using Richard listens to what is said. I think we all know divorce is not a nice thing and would like to try to be fair with regard to the parties concerned. Richard advised a good six to nine months that they were going to be unable to negotiate with my ex and her lawyer team and the only way was to proceed to court. I didn't take that advice at first and hence my solicitors costs were far higher than they needed to be.
Richard has far more experience than I. At court the judge could see we tried and tried to reach a fair settlement. This went against my ex and she didn't end up with the settlement she thought was correct.
Trust the team you employ and do exactly what they say.

Sadly I have needed help from Richard 3 times now and have been greatly impressed, not just by Richard himself and his straightforward approach and straight talking, but the empathy he had towards the child custody court case. Richard is tenancious in your defence and the welfare of the children. I cannot recommend this solicitor practice highly enough and his rates are affordable for such an excellent service

Couldn't have asked for anyone better
I throughly recommend Ronaldsons Solicitors and I can’t rate Richard highly enough. For the past 10 months or so Richard has been helping me with getting access to my 16 month old daughter. Richard has always been open and honest with me and acted in my best interests. I am so happy to say that contact has been reinstated and this would not have been possible without Richard. Thanks a million Richard!

Wouldn't use anyone else.
I wouldn't want to use anyone else. I felt confident in the advice, help and support given to me by Richard who had our beat interests at the heart of everything he advised and the actions taken.
