We cannot speak highly enough of Michelle Hardstone and wholeheartedly recommend her/Brighton And Hove Law. She provided clear and concise professional advice pertaining to Family Matters in a sympathetic and helpful way. Ms Hardstone was able to cut through often complex and sensitive issues to get to the heart of the matter with tangible outputs. Huge thanks to Brighton And Hove Law!

Very professional and family oriented service

I am very gratefull to Lucy for all her help and advice while dealing with my case. For the whole duration of my case, Lucy always put my child's best interest first and her whole approach always reflected this. In the end, the outcome we achieved was the one that best ensured that my child's well being was put at the forefront. Lucy was knowledgeable, pragmatic and her communication througout my case was always clear and timely.

Review

The service I received from Brighton and Hove Law, and Lucy in particular has been absolutely incredible and I can’t thank Lucy enough. She has been professional, provided me with detailed and expert knowledge, explained everything to me really clearly, and been so reassuring and supportive at such a traumatic and stressful time. She is really kind, approachable, detailed and thorough, and always responded quickly and arranged calls and meetings at times to suit me, making me feel like nothing was too much trouble.

Excellent client service and support

Lucy Gregory was a fantastic support to me during my legal case. She was professional and reassuring, patient and understanding and I felt very supported throughout. She guided me through the legal process well and alleviated much of my stress with her reassurance and knowledgeable advice.

I cannot recommend Lucy Gregory from Brighton & Hove Law enough to anyone who is about to embark on a divorce. She was my rock in extremely difficult proceedings and I honestly don't know what I would have done without her knowledge, support and professionalism. I was given superior service and will always be glad I chose Brighton & Hove Law and Lucy to get me through one of the most anxious and stressful chapters of my life. An amazingly kind but professional family law firm to deal with. I will forever be grateful to you Lucy.

I saw Seema Roberts a few years ago for some advice on my divorce. She was incredibly sympathetic and kind during an extremely difficult time in my life. Her advice was brilliant.
I would highly recommend her and will always be very grateful for the comprehensive and valuable advice. It's also worth mentioning that the advice I received meant I wouldn't be needing her services going forward so there was no financial benefit to her. Should I ever have the need for a solicitor in the future I will for sure choose Seema as my representation.
Thank you once again, you have made a huge difference to my life!
