I had Ms Anne Shears as my solicitor acting on my behalf. Very knowledgeable and gave good advice throughout. Managed my divorce extremely well and achieved it swiftly. Brought in specialist help from colleagues when appropriate.

I have been through a pretty tough time, but the Family team and Anne in particular were just a breath of fresh air - extremely supportive, helpful and professional. I have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone. A lovely person, a great support team behind her too.

I am hugely grateful to Anne Shears who represented me after my divorce and successfully managed the financial settlement order with great professionalism, care and thought. I cannot recommend Anne enough; she was always there to support me, explain my options and most importantly, to represent me and to ensure I was given a fair settlement. From the outset, I felt that Anne had my best interests at heart and she was a tremendous advocate for me during a difficult and challenging time.

Gemma Stevens and Anne Shears provided an exemplary service at a very difficult time. They gave me exceptional advice and were always available to respond to queries or questions. Their Resolution credentials were clearly evident in their interactions with all parties. I can recommend the Nash & Co., Family Law department without reservation.
