Outstanding

Absolutely outstanding support throughout my whole case, Kyle Patterson was my solicitor and made me feel at ease with my full case, he’s very supportive, very reassuring, very reliable, I built a brilliant relationship with him and I couldn’t thank him enough for what he has done for me and my partner . Would definitely recommend him to anyone who is needing a solicitor.

Great service in a stressful time

I initially contacted Holmes Family Law as they were recommended by my workplace as was going through a divorce and looking to get a financial order. After advising Helen that in general it was a quite straightforward separation that we hoped to do amicably (and dreading how much it might cost us both to do!), she advised that Holmes offer a unified separation service where we could do the process together and Helen would do the legal parts required for us to get a clean break for a fixed fee, which was perfect for our situation and a relief financially. Helen explained the process thoroughly from the start to us both, was quick to respond to any questions and advised where she could, and was quick and efficient in getting everything done within a few months as well as being kind and understanding with one of us being in hospital on one of the calls! Going through a divorce is a difficult and stressful time without the added legalities and Helen (and Holmes as a whole) made the experience far smoother than expected and straightforward. Really appreciate the help and would really recommend Holmes as a law firm, thank you Helen and team :)

Excellent representation

Holmes family law represented me throughout my custody case and they were exceptional. I searched for many family law solicitors and after reading their reviews and speaking to Helen on the phone, I knew then that I had to look no further. I was represented by Helen and Laura, they made the whole nightmare feel a walk in the park. I would recommend them to anyone going through this stressful situation. Child arrangements can be hard when two parents can’t agree. I myself put my life and trust in this firm. From the bottom of my heart thank you to Helen, Laura and all the Holmes family law team. Me and my family will forever be grateful.

I fully recommend Holmes Family Law. From taking my initial panicked call out of hours when I was dropped in a difficult situation out of the blue and all through the process thereafter, I was guided so professionally by Helen Holmes and her colleagues. I received a service of the highest quality with timely communication and with great expertise. Thank you so much.

Helen, I want to thank you and all your team for the support you have given me over the last few years, which have been the most difficult and turbulent times of my life. Not only have you handled my case with professionalism and extensive knowledge and experience, you also demonstrated compassion, kindness and understanding. I trust you implicitly and know undeniably I can count on you to represent me in the most challenging of circumstances. Thank you for being there for me and my children time and again.

I used Holmes Family Law to help me with my divorce. Helen was very professional and helpful, she helped me understand things more clearly as I didn’t have a clue with the all jargon. She also helped with a pension sharing order which I was just about ready to give up on. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Holmes Family Law they are fast and reliable and very professional. Thank you so much Holmes Family Law.
