Divorce + D81 closure
I could have proceeded with this divorce with out the aid of a solicitor, but knowing my ex i wanted everything done correctly, as they say all the T's crossed and I's dotted.
I am so pleased i did go down the road of using a solicitor.
Charlotte did a great job of keeping me in check as well as dealing with a very difficult ex, Charlottes advice and guidance was invaluable. Even to the point of when needed Charlotte would call to explain things if i did not understand them.
I would recommend Charlotte to anyone with out hesitation

Excellent, thorough and empathetic
Charlotte was recommended to me when I needed to apply for SGO in respect of my nieces. Over the 10 months of proceedings, her support was invaluable, her expertise and thoroughness were 100%. Charlotte and her team ensured that every "i" was dotted and every "t" crossed, carrying me along all through the process. Charlotte's empathy and kindness through what has been a difficult process proved to me that there are still decent solicitors out there. In spite of never having met Charlotte in person, I have felt heard and seen at every turn. Her expertise and insights whether in liaising with court or in finding me an excellent local barrister - invaluable.
For anyone looking for a Children and Family solicitor, I would recommend Charlotte 100%

I cannot recommend highly enough
Charlotte has been so much more than a solicitor to me. From day one I have felt she was 100% in my corner, she was empathetic at a very distressing time in my life, showing genuine concern for my own and family's well being.
Her advice was always about getting the best result for myself and she was efficient and responsive.
Charlotte made sure I was fully informed at all stages of my divorce and the legal process was smooth under her stewardship.
A true asset to FJG.

Expert, compassionate advice
Charlotte is empathetic, professional and super responsive. She steered me through some complex and challenging financial negotiations always making my options clear and giving advice I could understand but never being pushy. She was responsive and always got back to me on any questions really quickly. I am pleased to say Charlotte helped me reach a divorce settlement that I was comfortable with and I have no hesitation in recommending her services.
