Divorce including FDR
I had no prior knowledge of how to proceed with a divorce, KT family law clearly explained the process. They made sure advice was given before, during and after the main steps in the process. It was reassuring to understand the time line and more importantly to have time to be fully prepared for any upcoming events. Their advice was very clear and there was little need to consult any other sources, as all my questions were answered with confidence, clarity and accordance with the law.

Excellent service from start to finish
Heather was really engaging from the start, explaining everything and making sure I understood. She was friendly, approachable and professional through my (lengthy) divorce and financial separation. The whole service really is second to none, I never had any issues with communication or documentation. Heather kept me calm and reassured through the scary prospect of court but also realistic. She tried her best to not get to court but you can’t influence the other party, I got what I wanted near enough. I couldn’t recommend highly enough.

Fantastic service
I couldn’t recommend Heather highly enough, from start to finish she was approachable, friendly and professional. Handled my whole - lengthy case really well. Heather kept me up to date so I was never feeling like I didn’t know what was going on, advised me throughout the emotional rollercoaster of divorce financial separation and kept my costs as low as she possibly could. The service really is second to none and I highly recommend if anyone needs a family solicitor to use her.

Thankyou Heather
Through what has been one of the hardest 13 months of my life, I cannot thank Heather enough for guiding me through this process, for calming me down before every hearing, knowing exactly what steps to take to protect my daughter and get her the outcome she wanted and deserved. Forever grateful.
