Highly recommend

Andrew Stone dealt with my divorce, which was particularly acrimonious. I found Andrew to be very helpful and informative and would not hesitate to recommend him.

Highly recommend Louise Carberry!

Louise is a brilliant person to have represent me in my case. She is easy to talk too, always keeps me updated and explains things clearly to me. She has very good knowledge and experience in dealing with family law.
Even up to the very last moments of the case, she was fighting my corner.
I can’t thank her enough for all that she has done to help me.
I would recommend Louise to anyone.
I would use her again in the future if I need to!

Totally inadequate service

I came to this firm in a children's court case & this firm totally failed in every aspect of my case resulting in criminal behaviour being witnessed & the loss of children within the care system where this firm pretended to represent me but acted unlawfully to cover up child abuse within the system so stay way clear if you want a fair trial.

They know what forms to fill in but little else

Engaged them March 2020.

Paid a lump sum upfront for them to draw down.... Not seen a single invoice.

I don't get copies of information in or out of their office

I don't get acknowledgements of emails or messages I send/leave them. Have to chase for weeks to hear what they are doing.

They do not fight a case just give you're life away.

If this is law... It is bent..

I think their qualifications must be to know what form to fill in... Certainly seem to know little else

Recommend! recommend! recommend!

I found Andrew Stone to be an extremely to be really helpful, compassionate and professional solicitor. Communication is fantastic and I was kept informed throughout the process which took a very long time. He supported me at times I thought I had lost the will to live with it all! I cant thank him enough for getting me through it all and thoroughly recommend him!
