Such a professional firm!
I have been looked after by Victoria Maxwell and she is such a professional and efficient lawyer! All the correspondence we had was so efficient, timely and clear. She has always taken the time to explain everything even when i was overwhelmed with all the emotions and difficulties associated with divorce proceedings. I have felt supported and well informed every step of the way. Victoria also assisted with the paperwork associated with the sale of our matrimonial property and i have been relieved to have her "on my side".
Bishop and Sewell has exceeded my expectation and made this experience a lot smoother. I am grateful for your patience, professionalism and transparency. The billing was precise and reasonable. I absolutely recommend this firm and Victoria Maxwell in particular, to whom i wish the very best in her carreer.

Highly Recommended
Victoria provided excellent representation and guidance throughout my divorce proceedings. She was always available to answer any questions and allay any concerns I might have. My intention was to make the process as non-confrontational as possible. Victoria was sensitive to my wishes, while also looking after my interests and applying the appropriate amount of pressure to the respondent where necessary. The service provided was fantastic throughout and I highly recommend Victoria (and Bishop and Sewell LLP generally) to anyone going through the challenging process of a divorce.

Victoria Maxwell
Victoria has been incredibly helpful in a difficult legal situation. Her approach was always very supportive of my position in reaching a resolve with a challenging respondent. She has been available for advice, and promptly managed any concerns taking in to account my well-being. Of most value was her awareness of the type of personality I was pressed to deal with. She has been so very considerate, and is a real advocate for her clients' position. I was very grateful for her emotional and professional support-it is a credit to the expertise that Bishop & Sewell have in this area of Family Law but also the human approach that Victoria took in supporting me.
