“Philip was great at guiding me through the process”
Personal and professional service right from the first phone call.
Would thoroughly recommend.
Philip was great at guiding me through the process and legal jargon!
“Protected my mental well being as well as my financial position”
I was referred to Phillip Rhodes by a friend of mine and I cannot thank my friend enough!
At what is the most confusing distressing time , divorce, Phil showed true empathetic professionalism. He guided me through the minefield of law and applied his strong moral value of being fair and equitable by just doing the right thing. At no point even during high drama did he waive from this line and protected my mental well being as well as my financial position. Phil is always available probably doesn’t want me to say night and day but he was for me!
Up and beyond is my summation of this man and to say highly recommend doesn’t do justice to the way I feel.

I found the Slater Heelis service to be hugely supportive and professional. They steered a process that could have been difficult towards a resolution that was fair and amicable, with sound advice at each stage.

Philip is the best in his field.
He is able to give clients a clear honest perspective. He commands respect when dealing with other professionals.

“Gemma was extremely helpful”
Spoke to a very nice and efficient team today.
Starting from the front with Loukia, who very effectively setup an appointment on the same day with Gemma. Gemma was extremely helpful and took a great deal of time, which I am sure she doesn't have but didn't make me feel that way, to help me with my current ongoing struggle. Highly recommend.

Professional and reliable solicitors that went the extra mile to overcome my family legal matters and I would recommend them to anyone who has family matters to overcome
They have given me great hope and confidence.
Personal service is one of the benefits of this 'small' solicitors practice. All issues are dealt with promptly, and fees are upfront and reasonable.
Good communication help and advice as required. Quick response to all and any questions I had. Very knowledgeable staff. Reasonable costs.
These are the solicitors you need by your side, not just because they know very well what that are doing, but because they will go the extra mile for you, giving real thoughts to your matters, even finding you solutions through alternatives that might not be of profit to them.

“Patricia is most kind and understanding”
I would like to acknowledge my thanks to Patricia Robinson for her help in obtaining my daughter's divorce.

“I really felt valued as a client”
Wow, one firm who do not get their wires crossed. They have handled my divorce, my children issues (Patricia Robinson) and my Conveyancing (Ian Donnison) and my will making (Chris Partington). Throughout the service was really personal and really professional. They didn't set about just billing me, I really felt valued as a client. If you're like me and you are not used to dealing with Solicitors and require a personal service where nothing is too much trouble and the legal advice is both clear and accurate then please use this firm.

I used the legal services of Parrott and Coales to divorce my wife who committed adultery and to negotiate the financial settlement as she was intent on securing my money within weeks of leaving. Mr Sauvain was very supportive and advised me accordingly. I would definitely recommend Mr Sauvain for anyone else who had family issues.
Richard handled my divorce with great sensitivity and a lot of wisdom to help achieve a fair and efficient outcome. Understood exactly what my priorities were and was always very efficient in moving things on to the next stage. I would definitely recommend to others going through this difficult time.
Professional and compasionate.
Could not have got through the incompetence of the LA and the difficulties of the family court system without them.
