Very helpful

Today I discussed matters with Laura in regards to the emotional abuse my child is being subjected to by my ex partner. She was very professional and able to offer me the right advice as to steps I need to take. I feel very confident with her advice and appreciative of the time taken to offer me this opportunity to help my situation.

Professionalism. Responsiveness, value and Quality

I have felt supported and empowered to make decisions and life changes that I felt unable to do alone without the guidance and legal advice from you [Laura Gusatu]. You have made a very stressful time much easier for me and my children and I am very grateful for all the work you did for us. and the effort was more geared towards solving my problems than seeing me as a source of revenue. Highly recommended and Thank you very much.

Exceptional Service and Dedication from Bel Hester and Jennifer Murray

I cannot recommend Bel Hester and Jennifer Murray at KJ Smith Solicitors highly enough. From the very beginning, their professionalism, dedication, and attention to detail were outstanding.
They guided me through every step of the process with clear, timely communication, ensuring I always felt informed and supported. Their expertise was evident, and their commitment to achieving the best outcome was unwavering.
Both Bel and Jennifer were always approachable and empathetic, making what could have been a stressful experience much easier to navigate.
I am incredibly grateful for their excellent service and would not hesitate to use their services again.

Advice re Family Law

I had an extremely positive experience working with Daniel Norris and his trainee, Hannah, who he had working alongside him during my Family Law consultation this week.
From the beginning Daniel provided clear, expert advice and showed a deep understanding of family law, which immediately put me at ease.
I was introduced to Hannah and although she didn’t participate in the conversation I was extremely impressed with the knowledge Daniel was imparting to her and the caring way in which he conducted himself.
They were both professional, attentive, and eager to assist, making sure I felt supported throughout my consultation.
I would highly recommend Daniel and wish Hannah all the best with her training.

Outstanding Service!

From the moment I contacted the firm, I received excellent service. Lucy Clarkson, the legal receptionist, made me feel comfortable, respected, and valued. My appointment with Daniel Norris was impeccable; his knowledge and efficiency in addressing all my issues and questions were outstanding. I can't recommend them highly enough!

Jennifer and Bel were so lovely on the initial consultation regarding my divorce. They put me at ease and made a stressful situation a little calmer. Helped telling me the steps of a divorce and gave guidance. Didnt harrass me when I took months to get back to them to start the proceedings. Have kept me updated along the way. Would recommend if you are going through a divorce and need some solicitor help.

Just wanted to thank KJ Smith for being superb practice. What attracted me to this legal firm and especially Mrs Laura Gusatu was, that she took my request seriously and replied to me in 12 hours due to the nature of my case. Bear in mind, that she spent hours explaining to me in detail and advising me how to proceed with no charges it was all free. Mrs Laura gave me legal advice related to my query. Not the least, she was empathetic, showing her respect and consideration for me as a human being which makes such a difference to know someone is genuine and unbelievably supportive.
Mrs Laura Gusatu answered all my questions promptly and fully either by email or on the phone, she was extremely knowledgeable and helpful, with a very kind and understanding nature that helped no end through what was a stressful time. I would highly recommend the company KJ Smith and Laura Gusatu in particular, she made everything easier in a very human way.
