Highly recommend

Getting divorced is awful but Hawkins Family Law really eased the pain. They were “on it” when I didn’t have the head space to be myself. They were patient and kind and a brilliant result under the circumstances. I was recommended by a friend and I have also recommended a friend and we all feel the same. Thank you

Seeking Arrears

I cannot recommend Hawkins Family Law Ltd enough for their part in the successful outcome of my court case. I was at the end of despair with a previous legal firm and, after a brief time as a litigant in person, I contacted Hawkins. My initial email was to Jo Hawkins who, unlike many other firms I contacted, replied promptly and referred me to Holly Warren. Holly was excellent in the way that she listened and handled my case. I went from being terrified to receive emails from a previous firm which were patronising and offered incorrect advice, to finally achieving justice. The advice would be do not stick with a firm that is mishandling your case, leave. Hawkins Family Law is excellent.

A representative from Hawkins Family Law Ltd responded to this review on 15 April, 2024:

Thanks for your review. We're pleased we could be of service and your experience was so good. We will pass on your feedback to Jo and Holly

Defending Parental Allegations

The firm was very understanding of and adept in dealing with the management of this defence. Preparation of documents was thorough and appropriate and captured the reality of events very well. Counsel appointed by the firm to conduct the hearing on my behalf was also excellent in delivery and agile in adapting her approach in the moment. The result was as all that might be hoped for and ensured the right outcome.

Highly recommended

Loraine was amazing throughout my divorce and proceedings. She handled my case with empathy and professionalism. After a bad experience with a previous solicitor at another firm, it was great to have a solicitor who I trusted and knew had my best interests at heart. I honestly can’t thank her enough.
Every solicitor who dealt with my case were highly professional! Highly recommend Hawkins Family Law.

Client of Joanna Kwadrans

Joanna was absolutely amazing from start to finish and would use her again in a heart beat.
Joanna kept me up to date with every thing and was a massive support to my physically and emotionally for the 6 hours we were in court together. I couldn't have done it without her and will forever be grateful to her.
