Highly experienced, very supportive and a genuinely lovely lady

I cannot recommend Sarah and her team highly enough, they are absolutely wonderful. From the moment I met Sarah, I knew that she was someone who was kind, clever, very experienced and that I was in good hands. She has always made me feel exceptionally well supported and I don't know how I would have got through this incredibly stressful time without her by my side. Thank you to the entire team, Janine who is always so helpful and Gareth who is highly knowledgeable and instantly makes you feel at ease. I feel incredibly well represented and very grateful to have been recommended this firm. I have since recommended Wendy Hopkins Law to a friend of mine who is also immensely pleased with their expertise and service, saying they ‘knocked spots off of their previous solicitor.’

Bethan Tapper.

Bethan has helped me through court proceedings that have spanned the last 5 years. She has guided me, consoled me when things haven’t gone my way and always advocates for me and my parties best interests.

I would trust Bethan with my life (and my families) and even though I have now relocated, I continue to use Bethan. Her knowledge and professionalism is unmatched. She explains things in a way that I can understand, without the legal jargon, and always makes sure the message is recieved as intended.

She’s worth her weight in gold and whoever instructs Bethan will in the very safest of hands.

Review of Fay Jones

Fay looks so unassuming but don't let the fact she is so incredibly lovely make you choose someone else. She is diligent, accomplished, tenacious and her advice and work is exemplary. When she gets her Pit-Bull attitude out she's incredible!

I made the decision to use Melanie Hamer for my divorce proceedings because i needed the best solicitor to fight my case.
The support Melanie gave me was thorough and a great comfort to me during this emotional process.
Melanie expertly steered me every step of the way and gave me calm professional advice , so i felt confident in her managing my case. Her superior knowledge of the law and the lawful process, out shines all opposition.
I am grateful to the support of the whole of her team , even the payment staff, who i became on first names with and although an expensive process, using Melanie and her team turned out well worth the expense for the outcome the team achieved for me.

I had the good fortunate to have Bethan Tapper help me through my divorce. She was kind, considerate and helpful at a most difficult time. She steered me through the complex system, simplifying and explaining the process which I had to navigate. Her help was invaluable.

Expert advice, warmly delivered

Melanie was recommended to me as a leading expert in divorce and family law. She combines professionalism, efficiency, and responsiveness with being personally supportive.
Melanie listened carefully to my personal priorities and concerns. She has been consistently clear in her distillation of issues and options. I found her expert advice to be practical and helpful and always left our meetings reassured. My confidence in Melanie was a great comfort during a difficult time and though I am delighted to see the divorce end, I will miss her warmth and humour. I cannot recommend Melanie highly enough.

I count myself amongst the most fortunate of women. I may have found myself the subject of an abusive husband. I may have had to leave my home with few possessions. I may have had to rebuild my life, self-respect and confidence. However, from start to finish I had the great fortune of Fay. She has advised me, acted on my behalf, listened to me and supported me in practical, professional and kind ways at every step. At the end of the journey, I have a resolution I never imagined could have been achieved, and my future is finally safe, secure, and increasingly happy. I owe this to Fay, and all the staff at Wendy Hopkins. Thank you.

I cannot recommend this Firm enough, in particular Bethan Tapper. She made a horrible process much easier for all my family. Nothing was too much for her and she always made me feel comforted and valued which in my case was a real necessity. There was never any pressure with anything and I would often be reminded that they would be as involved as I wished.
Most importantly, she was able to achieve an outcome that I could have only dreamed of getting.
Thank you

Fay and the team at Wendy Hopkins were an amazing help to me regarding my childcare scenario. Fay understood what I needed and I can’t thank her enough for helping me through everything, she’s very kind but also extremely professional and an easy person to talk to. Would highly recommend Wendy Hopkins to anyone who needed support regarding similar matters, thank you all again!

Sam John of Wendy Hopkins helped my navigate some difficult Family Law legals with honesty, integrity and efficiency. He made challenging circumstances easier, and was able to explain complex legal clauses and requirements in layman's term.
