Absolutely Exceptional I was recommended to this company by a friend and it was one of the best decisions I have made. Going through the financial settlement of my divorce has been one of the most stressful times of my life but Sandy and his team took a great weight off my shoulders. Sandy knew how stressed I was about all the administration work and proposals we were getting from my ex husband solicitors. But Sandy handled by case with expertise. He was reassuring and no question was too small. He spoke a language I understood (not the legal jargon) and he was friendly and approachable at all times. I was very anxious on the day we went to court but Sandy greeted my sister and I at the tube station. He introduced us to Dan our barrister and Amelia our legal secretary. Sandy kept me reassured, as well as keeping us fed and hydrated all day. My legal team were on fire. I was so proud of them fighting my case with such skill, knowledge, confidence and care. I felt so protected and looked after. They worked so tirelessly. It was a long day. But Sandy & Dan were patient, they worked hard and made sure I got the result I wanted before we went home. They were all so friendly and upbeat on what could have been a very trying day. I was so happy with the result. Sandy is worth his weight in gold. Sandy, Dan, Claire and Amelia have all been amazing.. Going through a divorce has been the most difficult time but I was very fortunate to meet such a skilled and likable team to support me through this period.
I cannot recommend Sandy enough. He has been a pleasure to deal with during a hard situation for me. He remains family and child focused and provides excellent advice which has seen us get the outcome we wanted.
Absolutely brilliant. Sandy was cool calm and collected, nothing was too much trouble. The service from everyone I had interaction with was top class and it made my life so much easier especially as I live abroad and everything was done via email or zoom.
Claire and Sandy dealt with my acrimonious divorce proceeding in a completely professional and timely manner. They helped to keep my legal costs as low as possible and did not allow the other side to make litigious claims. I felt that I could trust both Claire and Sandy from the first instance of meeting them which was at a time when my children and I were going through deep emotional trauma. I will always be grateful for their legal representation, politeness and efficiency. I
