I couldn't speak more highly of Melanie Bridgen and her paralegal associate Melanie Theakstone. They have both been extremely professional at all times, and have exceeded my expectations in every aspect of my case, from start to finish. I have worked with solicitors prior to instructing them, but they are definitely the best by far, they are in fact second to none in their field. They have been kind, compassionate and helpful consistently, they got instant results. I would highly recommend them to anyone thinking of instructing a legal team to fight their corner. You will be amazed by their level of expertise, and the results they get, all while keeping the fees to a minimum at the same time. Thanks SO much to you both Melanie and Melanie I am hand on heart truly grateful! I am SO glad to have been recommended you by the truly amazing Dr Proudman! Thanks without end ;-)

Melanie Bridgen
Melanie was my first contact at Nelsons and from Day 1 she has supported and encouraged me with what has been an arduous 2 year journey against my abusive ex. Hand on heart, I am so very grateful for all she and Nelsons have done for me to get me such a successful outcome. She has been instrumental for me in reclaiming my life and for the first time in over 20 years, I am finally free and able to live on my own terms. I cannot express how much she has done for me. Thank you

Child law matters
I contacted Nelson’s on the recommendation of another client and was allocated Melanie Brigden. After the initial consultation I was more than confident that Melanie and of course Melanie 2 could handle this somewhat difficult case! Initially I went with a child arrangement order which both parents objected to but Melanie soon dealt with their objections and the order was given … I went for an SGO order as well and although it’s wasn’t granted didn’t feel it was anything to do with the lack of attention to detail by Melanie her hands were tied by social worker recommendation. This still didn’t stop Melanie pushing in court for the best outcome possible on the day .. I am totally happy my granddaughter gets to grow up in a safe , loving and stable future. I would recommend the two Melanie’s and employ them again in a minute .

Professional
Professional - My solicitor knows her subject matter well. Accommodating - I had some issues with settling my invoice, but it was handled very diplomatically at a time when i was already under pressure from the legal proceedings i was going through. Accessible - I was able to reach my solicitor whenever i needed to and on the couple of occasions that i couldn't they got back to me in a timely manner. Thank You.

Melanie Bridgen
Melanie is professional, empathetic, reassuring and puts your mind at ease every step of the way. She really is the family lawyer you want in your corner and I cannot recommend her enough to anyone who requires family law advice. She took my case on short notice, it was very complex and I got the best result possible.

Excellent
Very clear and concise on required actions and next steps - The process was explained and fully understood from start to finish. The turnaround time on actions and documents required was excellent. Advise provided was measured, considered and achieved the best outcome possible. I felt confident that any scenario that arose could be dealt with without causing me any additional stress over and above that naturally induced by processing a Divorce and House Sale in parallel.
