Many thanks to Sills & Betteridge.
The divorce was the lowest point of my life, so I failed to properly engage with the divorce process. I was probably Ailsa's worst ever client.
Regardless of the challenges I presented, Ailsa was determined to see me walk away with my fair share of the joint assets. Due to her patient persistence with me, coupled with her professional tenacity in acting on my behalf, I eventually walked away with considerably more than I expected and was initially prepared to accept.
My experience as a client of Sills & Betteridge has been entirely positive. When Ailsa was briefly on leave, her manager and the rest of the team dealt with me in the same professional and client friendly manner.
I'm now well on the way to rebuilding a future for myself and a legacy for my kids, thanks in no small part to the efforts of Ailsa and the team at Sills & Betteridge.
Many thanks.

Thank you for all you have done. I would highly recommend you to anyone going through a divorce. Ailsa has had to deal with a very unreasonable respondent and their solicitor. She has dealt with it professionally and continued to fight my case in a very efficient manner. I am very grateful for everything and achieved the deserved outcome in the end.

Ailsa Tennant - top notch family lawyer
Couldn't have asked for a better service from Ailsa who guided me through making a financial consent order with my ex-husband; have already recommended her to other people!

Thank you
Thank you to your family team for providing such a supportive and professional service.
My case has been very complex and far too lengthy but the advice, support, empathy and guidance provided by Ailsa (and Jessica Firth Brown beforehand) was second to none.
I cannot thank you enough for the outcome and the understanding throughout the process.
Communication was excellent and always very speedy.
Thank you
