I won my case

Maguire won my case. I had a very difficult husband who insisted on getting what he wanted which cost me money. But Abi got it done.
Thank you

Amazing legal representation. Highly recommended

I was represented by Abigail Reynolds at Maguire Family Law in stressful family court proceedings and would not hesitate in recommending their services. Abigail was impeccable from day one, always sharp, understanding, knowledgeable and sympathetic. She provided flawless legal services all round, and also went above and beyond at a human level - something particularly important in family law. I feel very fortunate to have had Abigail by my side in court and would most certainly hire her again.

Consistently Excellent Service

I received an exceptional level of professional guidance from Henry Venables who expertly dealt with some complex issues achieving the best outcome for me. He was always attentive, listening carefully to my personal preferences and clearly explaining the advantages and disadvantages of the potential options. Henry always responded quickly to my communications, drawing on his vast experience of legal practice to find successful innovative solutions to the sensitive and unusual challenges in my case. Over and above his legal expertise Henry's communications with me were friendly demonstrating empathy to the emotional impact of the situation that now required legal intervention. I felt privileged and reassured to have Henry and his lovely team on my side and unreservedly recommend them!

Clear Divorce Process Advice

Many thanks again for our meeting and for your notes. I must admit to feeling a little ‘rattled’ by the time I left your office, but you’ve made my position much clearer, allowing me to think straight & usefully about the divorce process.

I don't intend to write too much in here, as anyone who has gone through a painful and bitter divorce could write a book on it....
However with regards to the professional service I received from Maguire solicitors it was second to none in every aspect of the divorce. On a personal level they understood the human aspects of a divorce and how mentally challenging that can be for an individual. I found that extremely helpful as I am sure others have and will in the future.

Henry was an amiable and professional solicitor that helped me get a fair settlement in my recent matter. He was flexible throughout the process and took time to explain things simply and clearly. Would recommend Maguire and Henry specifically.
