10 years after the event still very grateful.
Phil just wanted to say thank you for your professionalism and expertise 10 years ago when he helped me extract myself from a complex situation. Underneath his calm exterior there's an absolute beast of a Lawyer.
Have just recommended you Phil to a friend hence why I needed to look you up and just wanted to say thank you again I wouldn't be where I am today had you not put in the work you did.
Forever gratefull.

There was a lot of empathy from Phil and dealt with my situation in a complete professional manner.He went above and beyond to make me understand the process and settle things in the most rational way. I would recommend them happily to anybody who need their services as they are easily accessible any time throughout the process and it felt like every member of staff had a human side in my most difficult times though they had to be professional.

Very happy with the service and how the whole procedure was managed from the initial meeting right to the end. When I was at my lowest and at times, it was very frustrating, your professionalism and empathy was what was needed at a very difficult time. Thank you ever so much, I would recommend Philip Cowell (but I don’t want to see him again!!!! - please don’t take offence!)

FBCMB helped me to understand the divorce process and provided knowledge and expertise to help me through this incredibly distressing time. Their indepth knowledge and pragmatic approach really helped relieve stress and allowed me to try and get on with my life. I cannot thank Philip enough for handling matters and bringing things to a satisfactory conclusion.
