Empathetic Approach
Every member of staff I engaged with was empathetic and respectful towards the emotions I was experiencing at this challenging time in my life.
The Kindness I experienced is the main reason I would recommend the services of Jane and her team.
The ‘human touch’ was much appreciated.

DIVORCE EXPERIENCE
I cannot express how grateful I am to Jane for her help with my divorce. It was a very complicated situation (as these things are) but Jane managed to push this process through and kept me going whatever the obstacle's were put in front of me. I really felt like she held my hand through all this, always there at the end of the phone or email never to busy to give excellant guidance and advice.
Also Heather was an absolute star very friendly and approachable, dealing with any problem or enquiry I had quickly and kept me calm in some panicky moments.
Would highly recommend 10/10.

Divorce and settlement handled by Thornton Jones.
Jane Auty handled my divorce and financial settlement along with Emily and Robyn who handled the transfer of property deeds and the transfer of my settlement monies.
All were extremely professional and handled everything so very well.
Jane was excellent helping sort out my financial form and I really couldn’t have done this without her help.

Jane has been an incredible help through my journey of childcare and financial matters. Janes level of professionalism is unmatched along with her level of understanding and empathy.
Jane made the legal process less daunting and explained each step thoroughly and was excellent with including my family in the process. Would definitely be recommending Jane and Thornton Jones to others. Heather was an amazing help too and helped keep me calm and explain things during court.

Highly recommend Jane Auty & her team. Jane has expertly led me through my divorce & financial consent order. These are the people you need when life is at its hardest. Aside from the legal advice which was on point. I felt supported throughout. Can’t thank them enough.
