Fully recommend

I had the luck to have Peter on my side. The type of divorce that should not go through the courts as mentioned by couple of judges, but dealing with inflictive controlling spouse,there was no other way. Peter helped me to guide me through the storm, always trying to find solution while courageously balancing the imbalance in relationship. Peter has been recommended to me and I am gladly passing the recommendation on.

I couldn't recommend Peter Dadswell enough. He's been outstanding throughout. In very difficult circumstances and through the toughest times of my life. Its been reassuring knowing I've had Peter in my corner. Advising me on what I should and shouldn't be doing but also making me aware of the financial costs on a regular basis so I didn't insure any unexpected costs. I'm sure my estranged wife in hindsight wishes she had got Peter before me.

Thank you so much Peter. I will be forever grateful.

Highly Recommended

Faced with pressures to sign a clean break order, that would leave me with marital debts, I was put in contact with Michelle Cooper.
I had previously had a solicitor for a custody case who had taken thousands off me in meer weeks and created a situation where i had had to represent myself for the custody hearing as I couldn't afford to keep going - hence I was extremely nervous about engaging another solicitor at this point. Luckily
Michelle and her team were absolutely fantastic. They guided, supported, and advocated for me throughout the entire divorce process, and their professionalism and diligence achieved an outcome that was better than expected. I would highly recommend Michelle and her team.

Gratitude for help and support

I would very much like to thank Peter Dadswell for all his support in helping me navigate throughout what has been an extremely stressful process. It is not a journey I chose to travel through, but from our first meeting to discuss my situation and having his honest, knowledgeable and guiding support throughout is something that I will never be able to thank him enough for.

I always felt very comfortable with asking questions no matter how small to understand a difficult process.
Communications very good and i always felt comfortable throughout the process. Having a friendly understanding solicitor who showed empathy and kindness helped me lots with my struggles to understand what was expected of me.

So helpful

Sandra was great. She picked up my case after being dropped by my previous solicitors and did the job well. Communication was great and I could always contact her about anything and get a reply. Supported me and my family throughout. So grateful for all the hard work Sandra did on my behalf.

Totally unethical and unprofessional.
Trying to charge me for a free consultation that during the same the Lawyer actually recommended I didn't proceed!
Then 7 months later they stated sending threatening letters.
Stay away!
