Complex family matter. Great Solicitor

We were assigned to Zakia Hussain, and were really pleased and impressed with the service provided. From the first meeting we found her to be approachable, knowledgeable and friendly. She helped us get the desired outcome in a complex case. We would definitely use Zakia again and would highly recommend her.

Cannot thank Theresa and Vicci, Michelle and Kath enough for their support and efficiency during our recent move. The service, timescales, costs and attention to detail made all of the difference.
Will recommend to anyone moving home!

Zakia Hussain absolutely fantastic solicitor.

I have worked with Zakia in my family law case for the last 6 months. She has been absolutely dedicated to my case and helping my through the very stressful situation every step of the way. I’m never off the phone too her and needing more advice and she always gets back to me and helps me. Our situation was challenging to say the least, and she got me my deal and more or less everything I wanted about the new contact order. I had already accepted he would be going to be with his father half the time so it feels like a massive result, I’m very happy it’s all done and dusted and we can finally put it all to bed and get on with our lives.

Family court and contact dispute

I feel I was very lucky to have Zakia assigned as my solicitor with what ended up being a long complicated case to regain contact with my child. Zakia was so knowledgeable and supportive in every aspect of the case and dealt with multiagency professionals with the highest level of professionalism and kept me updated at all times. She fought my corner with passion and assertiveness and was always available to answer any questions or worries. Due to Zakia’s involvement in my case I had the best possible outcome and now have regular court ordered contact with my child, Zakia always helped me stay positive during the hardest time of my life and my family and I could never thank her enough!

Compassionate and professional support

Cygnet Law have been really supportive during my divorce proceedings which included discussions of needing support for communication as well as some safeguarding concerns in relation myself and my son. I can't thank them enough for their professional kindness. Everyone within the firm was willing to take the time to listen and to make advice accessible and clear.

Simply amazing. Vicci, Kath and most recently Aimee, they have all been outstanding. Would not consider using any other firm. What has been a very stressful sale and purchase of two properties Cygnet have consistently delivered and pushed them both through which is all you could ask for. Thanks so much everyone X
