Louise Chipchase - superb!!
Have recently been through a divorce and I was recommended to meet Louise when the financial demands of my ex-wife via her solicitor overwhelmed me.
I have never met with anyone who, over the course of one initial meeting managed to calm me and explain the realities which were nowhere near as bad as I thought.
Louise guided me towards a negotiated solution rather than a fight in the courts, even though this route would have been much more lucrative for her firm.
Her knowledge is exemplary and the advice and guidance I received was absolutely superb. The costings were as agreed and I felt Louise’s expertise were worth every penny.
I would wholeheartedly recommend Louise, if there were 6 stars to give I would!
Steven AndrewsLouise Chipchase dealt with my divorce in a professional and timely manner. Despite the restrictions we have all been working under, I felt Louise and her assistant made me feel nothing was too much trouble, which instilled confidence in how I felt the process was being handled. I would definitely recommend their services.
Alexander NewberyThe team at Stowe Family Law were nothing short of exemplary, in what was has been a very difficult time for me. Right from the outset, the team’s professionalism, personable yet succinct approach and informative nature shone through, which in turn helped me understand my options and processes better. A special thanks to all for their understanding, flexible and very supportive approach, in what are very sensitive issues for a number of clients. A great company that does exactly what they say.
Mr J GillGuided me through a very difficult divorce process, made me feel at ease and got me the result that was fair and just. I would recommend Stowe Family Law to anybody looking for a hard working solicitor who has your best interests at heart.
Andrew SymonsThe staff dealt with my enquiry sensitively and gave me great advice.

Kathryn GraySimply the best when it comes to speed, customer service and prompt dealings. I have used Simon Twose for many years now and he is without question the best solicitor I have used.

Richard dealt directly with me on all matters related my divorce. The matter was handled quickly with succinct, clear advice. I recommend his firm completely. His professional relationship with his counterpart was very helpful.
Steve RushRichard & his team from the get go were quick to respond and gave clear easy to understand advice in what can be an overwhelming situation. You would go long way to find better all round service and advice.
David OwenI am supremely grateful for the invaluable advice and thorough approach employed by Richard. He was extremely patient and understanding and helped guide me legally through an extremely delicate situation. I highly recommend him and his firm.
Emily WatsonI met with Richard in June. Richard showed discretion and compassion in such a sad situation, as all divorces usually are.
He gave me such valuable advice, and I can't thank him enough. I am not at the end of my journey to a new chapter yet. But I'm glad that it is Sharp family law that have been my travelling companion on my stormy journey.

Dear Beverley and Team, I would like to thank you for all your help and for the expert advice you gave me. Also for helping me to have the strength to take this on and face it without fear. I was very much out of my depth, having never attended Court before my matters before. Deep gratitude to you!
'V'Watkins Solicitors, helped me through two extremely difficult periods - in my life. Both cases were successful. I will continue to recommend Watkins Solicitors - to my family, friends and work colleagues. I can't thank them enough, for what they have done. It has been life changing! (Beverley & Tamsin)
Annamarie CoppardBeverley and Lydia were absolutely brilliant with great advice and knowledge. We got the outcome that we wanted for our daughter and we are so pleased that we had Watkins to fight for what she deserved. Thank you.

During what can only be described as a emotional and stressful time, Rachel and the team have offered unparalleled support, advice and guidance. Rachel has been professional, shown empathy and ensured that I have made the decisions that were right for me. I can't recommend her highly enough.
JenniferFantastic professional service with good advice and feedback
Handled my divorce case well from a difficult position after leaving a different solicitor half way though the divorce. I was given good advice and direct feedback to help my decisions in how to proceed.
I only wish I had used them from the start.
BrianI came across Stowe Family Law purely by chance as I needed a solicitor and the situation was quite last minute, but I can honestly say that I wouldn’t put my trust in anyone else. They were able to offer me the support and guidance that I needed, and were extremely sensitive to my circumstances.
AmyStowe Family Law are a professional and friendly team who helped me at a time when I most needed it. My situation was complicated and difficult, yet they took the time and patience to get to the bottom of it and sort it all out with some great results. I couldn't have got through it without them - thank you!
AnonymousDivorce is never going to be 'fun' but Stowe made the process much easier for me, thanks to clear guidance with thoughtful, confident and experienced leadership at all times. Ultimately, we achieved a thoroughly fair result for all parties. Thank you.

I came into contact with Mogers and Drewett at a difficult time- when my husband had just left. Getting divorced is an unsettling and difficult process at the best of times. Every time I met with my solicitor I came away reassured that things would be ok and that my life would continue. My solicitor was efficient, calm and listened to what I wanted. She gave good legal advice and I pleased with the settlement I now have. Three years down the line, I am divorced and have a good life. Thank you Mogers and Drewett for your support.
NickiVictoria [in Rebecca Silcock's team] was absolutely fantastic! From day one she made every effort to understand my needs and strived to achieve the best possible outcome for me and my son. She listened and gave excellent advice in any matter; nothing was too small or too much for her to advise me on. Her quick responses and communication via email were reassuring and allowed me to focus on my divorce in my own time without it interfering with my job. I hope I never have to recommend a solicitor for divorce to anyone, but if I did I wouldn't hesitate in putting Victoria's name forward.
RosThank you, Thank you, THANK YOU, for all you have done for me Rebecca, your council & calm demeanour have been my rock throughout what was a very traumatic divorce.

I guess I was lucky, Because all the stories that I was told when I was getting divorced of how harrowing it would be. I managed to find Goughs solicitors and Ross Phillips one of the partners who I’ve got to say was absolutely fantastic he gently took me an emotional wreck through all the stages of divorce and the costs he explained everything to me and and as he predicted it went through at the right time in the right order making that transition as painless as he possibly could it’s now three months and I’m thinking how lucky I was to choose this solicitor and this practice for professionalism and client care at the time that I need it the most I want to thank Gofths for their service and kindness throughout my ordeal.
Ellie FaragoFor me my divorce was a hugely stressful and hard time. I had a business that I relied upon and wanted to protect and two children who access to was imperative. The legal world is not one I was overly familiar with however I felt like I needed to act as my divorce was stuck in a cycle of one solicitor writing to the other and back and forth like an expensive tennis match with both sides just trying to score points. So I decided to make a change and on a recommendation I spoke to Ross shortly after I instructed him to act for me. He instantly recognised what was important and moved to protect that. He was a voice of reason even protecting me from myself at times however he always and without question acted in my best interest to achieve for me the best possible result in the shortest possible time scales. To anyone reading this to pick up the phone to Ross it will be the best decision you could make.
David RogersRoss has always been very fair, considered & professional when I have been involved in family matters. I have always had implicit trust in Ross insofar as he will always consider the needs of the child first and advise accordingly. I have always felt very secure knowing Ross will handle matters to alleviate the pressure and the distress court proceedings can inflict on everyone involved . I would not hesitate to depend on Ross to find and implement the best outcome for everyone in family matters. Ross has always be very responsive and has kept me well-informed throughout the process.
Ross provides a second-to-none service and respects financial limits whilst supporting & listening respectfully to his client. Thank you Ross for your commitment to fairness.
I found myself in need of a solicitor in early 2020 and Goughs was recommended to me by a previous client. Having only dealt with solicitors for a house purchase I was unsure what to expect, but I found Ross the epitome of professional. He was calm, understanding, professional, and empathetic to my situation. He offered sensible solutions and took on board my thoughts and concerns. I would have no hesitation recommending Goughs.

I have been dealing with Stone King LLP for a number of years and found them to be very helpful, resourceful and willing to go the extra mile for me as a client. I have used them for trust, wills and probate work and in handling my rather messy divorce. If you are looking for a top quality local law firm then you really should visit Stone King first.

The quality and content of feedback that clients have given via trusted review services such as Google and TrustPilot.
Formal accreditations that are awarded to firms based on their expertise and/or their outstanding working practices.
Industry-recognised awards for superior business practices, legal expertise or customer care.
Evidence of high quality client care, including reviews received, publishing and sharing legal knowledge, and quality of enquiry replies.
The extent to which the solicitor has been involved in cases that have helped to shape and change wider family law.
Is the solicitor one of the best within their price band? A lower-priced or mid-priced solicitor will be included if they are the best compared to other solicitors in the same price band.
Does the solicitor have a proven track record, earned over years, of being an extremely shrewd legal practitioner? They aren’t in any way new or unproven.
The solicitor is well recognised for having a specialism in a particular area of family law, such as international divorce, abduction, or custody.
Is the solicitor part of an established firm and they have quickly gained a reputation for being expert in their field? A highly skilled rising star who doesn’t yet command the highest fees, so making them very good value.
Does the solicitor’s surrounding team contain high calibre lawyers and secretaries who collectively can offer broader and deeper legal advice as circumstances require?
