Matrimonial matters and divorce

Aysha Chouhdary handled my matrimonial matters. Once she came on board she was able to steady the ship and give me alot of re-assurance that all will be fine. At this stage i have lost hope and consigned to the fact that i was going to loose everything. thanks to her i got to keep my house and got a good settlement. i am grateful to her for her help, assistance and support through a very turbulent and difficult time. Thanks Aysha.

Jon was professional and empathetic from the first time we spoke.
He kept me updated at every step of the claim and showed compassion throughout.
He always delivered his honest opinion and I felt he was always working hard to get the best outcome for me.

Trustworthy, efficient and empathetic.

Throughout proceedings of what was a very unique and difficult case, Aysha, Kate and Gweni were second to none with their advice, reassurances and teamwork. Securing the best possible outcome, they worked effectively together and communicated clearly so I understood what was happening throughout,coming up with solutions to every hurdle. The patience, compassion and empathy shown was outstanding, regularly going out of their way to reassure and help understand the jargon and process in a way I could understand, many times in my native language. I will be forever grateful to Aysha and her team for the life changing work they’ve done for my family. Diolch

Family law matter

I recently worked with Aysha Chouhdary on a family law matter and am incredibly grateful for her exceptional service. From the start, Aysha provided clear, concise advice and kept me fully informed throughout the process. Her professionalism, expertise, and compassionate approach helped ease my stress and led to a successful resolution in my favour. I highly recommend Aysha and her team at Geldards LLP for anyone needing family law assistance. Thank you for your outstanding support and dedication.

Support for Financial Consent Order

The advice I received from Aysha Choudhary was exemplary and the order was dealt with in a matter of weeks. Whilst not complex, there were some challenging aspects to getting the order approved which was successful on account of Ayshas advice and drafting. Her understanding of the emotional toll of this on myself and my family also helped us to navigate the most difficult time of our lives.

Solo Divorcee

I came to Geldards following a recommendation from a good friend to deal with my divorce. I have found them incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, professional in their approach and very strategic. They were very quick in all responses. via email or phone and listened intensively to my requests. Despite being a very challenge chapter in my life, I knew i made the right choice to go with them. Gweni, Gaynor and Aysha were brilliant. Thanks!!

Excellent Law Firm and Specialist Solicitors

I had dreaded making contact with my ex-partner to resolve a financial consent order - something that should have been concluded at the time of the original divorce some 13 years ago. I had an introduction with Gweni and she was able to clearly explain the need for me to get this arranged. She was able to help with my fears and doubts and provided considered legal opinion on what my rights and the rights of my ex-partner were. She allowed the doubt to turn to hope and this has resulted in me obtaining an agreed financial consent order after all this time. Thank you.

Hats off to Gillian Crouch, Kayleigh Hume and Andrew James for their professionalism and humanity in dealing with what has been a protracted and fairly stressful time for me. Every query was dealt with promptly and efficiently and I have been kept informed of progress throughout. Would highly recommend them in the future

Very professional people, but not cheap. Sometimes, you have to spend money to get the right outcome. That applies to everything, including getting your car fixed!! You can see where the money goes before you even get to barristers. Worth it in my case. Sometimes you don't get a choice.

This is a very good law firm. Speaking to barrister Douglas Hammond at a SEN charity law seminar helped me to pursue the idea of steering my national children’s disability inclusion campaign into legal action.
