Excellent service

Michelle worked with me on my separation and was really helpful. It was a hard time for me and she gave good advice and helped me through. I now have a positive outcome to this and I am happy

Word of mouth

I was going through court regarding a child relocation matter (ex-partner wanting to relocate to The USA with my boy) and was so stressed. I started the court process myself, however, it was clear i needed help...I spoke to a friend who had been through something similar and she recommended Michelle and couldn't speak highly enough of her. So I booked an appointment to see her and it was the best move i'd made. Michelle is warm, calm yet ferocious! She instantly made me feel at ease and was literally on everything! After not long my ex-partner decided to drop proceedings so now my boy will never be relocating to The USA! A tactical genius! I can't thank her enough!

A big thanks

A wonderful family friendly company. My sister used them for her divorce and financial settlement. It was such a long and involved situation due to the other party's behaviour, however everything was dealt with in a very professional but caring way.
Michelle and her team have been amazing throughout, keeping us up to date at all times, chasing the other side or court if needed and keeping a check on our finances.
The team are all approachable, kind and caring and we would definitely recommend them. Thank you

Child custody case

I was pleased Michelle was on my side, as she helped navigate me through a very acrimonious dispute about child-care.
Michelle always appeared to be ahead of the opposing legal team, and presented my case in a good light. Ultimately it was having Michelle on my side that swayed a tightly fought contest my way. Thank you - I'd recommend you to anyone unfortunate enough to find themselves in the position I was.

Stay Away From This Unprofessional Company

Completely disgraceful - DO NOT USE. The worst solicitor I've ever dealt with. I can't believe they claim to be qualified solicitors.

Just interested in making the maximum amount of money & exploiting people. The owner Michelle is a liar and has been completely useless, in all my dealings with her.

Very poor values and a firm that doesn't do the right thing for people. Very sad to see.

Stay far away from this firm!

The most awful law firm in Britain

They almost ruined my life and lied to me and messed me around. They apologised and said they would not charge me the fee, but did anyway. I notice they only have three reviews which are all good. My review will be reposted everywhere possible as an image. I have posted against them before and all the bad reviews have been removed, don't believe these charlatans.

noelgarside @ gmail . com if you want any proof of their terribleness.

Probate Application

Michelle and her team carried out our wishes with true professionalism and empathy and gave us good advice when we needed it. They handled the other solicitors involved in the probate/will caveat and the Probate Registry with a firm hand and kept us fully involved at all times. We could not have asked for anything better. The process took longer than we expected due to the delays introduced by the third party but this was never a problem. We had the warm feeling that the team were always well briefed even after some delays.
