Questions my clients ask me

Unfortunately this is never an easy question to answer. The length of time it takes to resolve matters varies greatly depending on the clients, issues and approach taken. However, if all involved are willing to compromise and focus on solutions at the outset, the quicker you’ll be able to resolve matters and get some finality.

I am open with clients about my own experience of separation, and how important it was to me to ensure that everyone came out of it relatively unscathed. I wanted my children to have the benefit of their parents working together going forward. I think this is what most people want, so my advice is very often tailored with this in mind.

This is a genuine concern for every client. It depends on a variety of factors, but what is important is that you ensure you don’t spend any more than you need to – this means being solution-focussed, having all of the information at hand to make pragmatic and informed decisions, and having all the support you need to make those decisions as early as possible.

Client Divorce proceedings

I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for all you have done for me since I started divorce proceedings. It has been a long, emotional and exhausting journey, but you made it so much more bearable with your knowledge, empathy determination and patience.

It was most definitely the right decision to hire you as my solicitor – I have recommended you to friends due to your brilliance, skill and fire for this area of law. Thank you for everything – I really cannot find the words to express the level of gratitude I have.
