Louise Buttery - unfaltering energy and determination to success.


I really meant what I've said all along. I am so beyond thankful to you and the family law team. I honestly wholeheartedly owe you as this has completely changed and transformed our lives for the better. You have always spoke words of wisdom and have a real sensible mind. I know some people may say it's all part of the job, but this has completely gone above all of that. I was so vulnerable when first reaching out that I didn't know what to do, who to trust or what direction to go in. I am really glad that I listened to you, that you had the time for us and trusted you. You have given such meaningful advice and we honestly wouldn't be in the position we are in today without you. You helped me find my backbone and I would literally trust you with the boys lives. You've considered us so much at such a sensitive time in all of our lives and I will forever speak highly of you to everyone including the boys. They will know about you when they are older and they will sing your name with joy. You will stick with us for a lifetime for a good reason and I will happily take your name to the grave with me.I truly believe that without you, me and the boys would be living a life governed by [ex-partner] and his alcohol - and the court order would've been alot different. I no longer have the prospect of living a lifetime of worry and fear because of you and that is life changing. A 1000s thank you's would never be enough, or even come close. It's so invaluable.The court order overlooks and overshadows everything previous to now. Thank you for always listening to us moan, I know it's not easy for you and you work so hard and have tons of people like me to help, but always know that what you do is honeslty life changing, and for some like us it really is for the better. It really is lovely you are so willing to help people like me, and you just make it look so easy.

Supportive, kind and caring

Zoe Summers from Family Law Partners supported me during the divorce. This was a very difficult time for me and Zoe was my rock. I cannot thank Zoe enough. Zoe explained everything clearly and was able to answer any questions that I had. I would not hesitate to recommend Zoe and should I need further help, I will certainly be calling on her again.

Divorce Representation

I approached Family Law Partners and Hannah to represent me after my wife filed for divorce. I was very impressed with the advice that I was given. Hannah explained everything and was able to answer any questions that I had and to calm my fears when I had concerns over what was happening.
I was impressed by Hannah's attention to detail which proved to be beneficial during the court case. Fortunately a positive outcome was achieved for which I owe thanks to Hannah and the legal team she helped provide.

Supportive, thorough and responsive

My experience of working with Hannah Gumbrill-Ward was excellent from the outset. Hannah took over working on my matter from another solicitor, and from our first discussions through to completion of my matter, she was supportive, thorough and responsive.
Hannah really took the time to listen to my concerns and to understand the complexity of my situation. She was compassionate and empathetic and combined this with thorough, clear advice so I always felt informed of progress and the potential next steps. I always felt that she had my best interests at heart, and that she took into account and clearly explained the repercussions of possible courses of action to me so I always felt my decisions were well-informed.
I can't recommend Hannah highly enough. She has guided me through a very difficult period, and me and my family are very grateful for her guidance and support.

Superb, professional and personally invested lawyers

My lawyer Robert Williams is exceptional. He has personally guided me through the hardest times of my life with professionalism, in-depth legal knowledge and care. His advice is always well considered, balanced and supportive. His responses are efficient, clear and honest. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Hannah was extremely professional and and empathetic to work with during my divorce. She made a stressful time feel more manageable by keeping me fully informed and giving clear explanations and advice at each step of the process. Her understanding of my situation and communication was great and I trusted her advice and experience to help get the best outcome for our family. I would thoroughly recommend Hannah and Family Law Partners for anyone going through a similar experience.

I would recommend Hannah Gumbrill-Ward without any hesitation, she handled my case with the utmost professionalism and integrity, something which her opponent certainly can’t do.
I suffer from PTSD with what my ex put me through. Hannah was very caring and supportive.
I know I could not have got through this without her. There were so many times I wanted to give up but Hannah was very patient and got me through it.

I would 100% recommend Family Law Partners to anyone in the unfortunate position of an upcoming divorce.

Having Hannah by your side through the entire process, gives you great confidence in the outcome on the case. Certainly my outcome was better than I could have predicted. Hannah made great suggestions on appointment of a Barrister and again the team got fully aligned and prepared in a really timely manner. Who can ask for more…

I would like to thank Hannah and her team for the hard work and dedication over the last year or so. They are a credit to Family Law Partners.

Robert and Hannah and the team provided a level of advice and support beyond anything I could have hoped for under the most trying of circumstances in the worst period of my life. I genuinely feel they had the interests of my children at the forefront of all decisions, and their calm heads and first class advice enabled me to successfully navigate extremely choppy waters. I feel very lucky I had them by my side and will be forever grateful.

You don't need a firm like FLP if everything in your life is coming up roses! But a time when you need expert advice, delivered with clarity and patience and a dollop of compassion, FLP hit the mark. Legal brains, but with a human heart.
