Caring
I have dealt with Stowe and Maria Coster for some time over family and property matters and found her to be extremely helpful, understanding and competent. Maria was also compassionate which was something that meant alot due to the nature of my case and the involvement of my children.
She has always been methodical and thorough in finding the best way to deal with matters and I would highly recommend Maria and Stowe to anyone needing a family solicitor.
Thanks again Maria

Caring
Maria Coster helped me through one of the most challenging times in my life. I was able to meet with her pre-covid and found her so empathetic and kind. I am so appreciative of her caring nature and support, as this is not something I ever expected to have to do. She clearly explained what would be involved in going through a divorce and outlined approximate costs upfront. I had very little understanding of the divorce process, Maria took the time to go through all the things that would need to be done as part of the process and explained other legal work I might require, explaining exactly why it might be needed and rough costs. She also provided recommendations for services that Stowe Family Law couldn't provide, such as will writing and conveyancing solicitors. I ended up using Maria for my divorce, financial order and severing of tenancy. This has allowed me to have a clean break and has protected me from any future financial claims.
I cannot commend Stowe Family Law enough, they kept me up to date with progress of my divorce, made it clear what was required of me and kept me up to date with costs throughout the whole process and with the added challenge of covid-19. They adapted quickly to remote working and I did not feel impacted by this at all.
Thank you for all your help and advice. I would definitely recommend them to anyone requiring family law services. Other law firms I approached were cold and uncaring.

I have used Maria Coster over the last couple of years. I moved to Maria from another firm as I was left in the dark with things. From the first day I met Maria, we sat down and went over everything. She was extremely thorough and professional and exceeded expectations. Things were always explained clearly. My cases were always dealt with efficiently in a timely manner.

I cannot speak highly enough of the way in which my case was handled by Maria Coster and the rest of the team at Stowe Family Law. From initial contact where I was given an assessment of my case and an estimate of costs, Maria dealt with my case with a high degree of professionalism, expertise and efficiency and I found her to be extremely knowledgeable, which was most reassuring at a very stressful time. Given my overseas location in relation to the Sheffield office of Stowe Family Law, all matters were dealt with from distance and with the minimum of inconvenience. I could not be happier with the level of service and advice provided and would not have the slightest hesitation in recommending Maria, and indeed now feel confident I have someone to call on for all my future personal legal and family law needs.

I was fortunate to be represented by Maria Coster, her calm, sensitive, friendly, pragmatic approach to my situation was reassuring and comforting. Maria ensured that I fully understood every stage of the legal process, which made me feel represented rather than railroaded. Her youthfulness is not to be underestimated, she is highly knowledgeable in all aspects of family law, including divorce, children issues and financial matters, resulting in her being a formidable force in the courtroom. She achieved the very best outcome for me, and I cannot thank her enough.
I found her commitment and determination quite simply exemplary and would highly recommend Maria Coster.

Both Sushma and Maria have been exceptional throughout my case, they really listened to my issues and have been really supportive. Suffering from anxiety, they have always been extremely considerate and have made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. Maria went above and beyond within my court case recently and gave me a better outcome than I was originally expecting. I'm still working closely with Sushma and Maria and will have no hesitation to go back to them in the future, if needed.

Bell and Buxton assisted us recently in the legal documentation required for minors to travel to South Africa without their parents. The solicitor we dealt with was particularly helpful and went above and beyond to ensure we had all the correct documentation at short notice. The trip was able to go ahead without any hitches. Would not hesitate in highly recommending.

Alison Kitchman was my solicitor through my divorce. We used the collaboration method which only involves the two parties in the divorce and their respective solicitors. You get the opportunity to not only talk to your solicitor but also your estranged partner face to face to try to come to an agreeable settlement for both of you and hopefully moving forward, you can salvage a relationship of friendship. The process is definitely worth considering and although I found it frustrating at times and quite emotional it has worked for me.
Allison throughout has been understanding, compassionate to both parties, friendly and very professional.
I will be recommending Alison to my friends and family as finding a good solicitor can be a minefield. Thank you Alison for all your work, I don’t think I could have got through it without you.

Family Law Glossary
Legal terms used on this page
Advocacy
Advocacy is the act of the solicitor (or more typically, a barrister) putting their client's case to the court. This may happen if a case cannot be resolved via negotiation between the clients’ solicitors (e.g. a divorcing couple cannot come to an agreement on how their finances should be divided), and so the case may then have to go to court in order for a judge to enforce a solution.
CAFCASS
CAFCASS is an acronym for ‘Children and Family Court Advisory and Support Service’. It is a public body that exists to consider the best interests of the children involved in family law cases. The officers at CAFCASS offer advice to family courts on what they think is in the best interests of the children involved as a result of their enquiries into a family setting. In some cases they are asked to produce a report for the court with recommendations that include who the children should live with, and what time they should spend with the other parent.
Child Arrangements Order
A child arrangements order is a court order that defines who is responsible for the care of a child, including who they live with and how often the child will have contact the parents. This type of order can be necessary if the parents cannot agree on how to share the care of their child/ren
Child Arrangements Order
A child arrangements order is a court order that defines who is responsible for the care of a child, including who they live with and how often the child will have contact the parents. This type of order can be necessary if the parents cannot agree on how to share the care of their child/ren
Collaborative Lawyer
A collaborative lawyer is trained to represent their client through a collaborative divorce process or family dispute. The clients on both sides sign up to to the collaborative divorce process which can involve them and their lawyers attending four-way meetings in order to negotiate and reach a formal agreement that avoids the need for any court hearings.
Prohibited Steps Order
A prohibited steps order is a court order usually applies to a parent and prevents them from conducting certain activities with their child/ren who are under 16 years old (such as preventing the parent from removing the child from school, or them taking the child abroad, or changing their surname). It also prevents the parent from exercising their parental responsibility.
Resolution
Resolution is an industry body with a membership made up primarily of family lawyers. As members, the lawyers agree to conduct their work in line with Resolution’s Code of Conduct which is based on taking a “non-confrontational approach to family law issues”. This means that the lawyer actively tries to reduce conflict between the parties and encourages families to put the best interests of any children first.
Specific Issue Order
A Specific Issue Order is a court order that sets out how a specific question or issue regarding a child should be addressed by the parents. This could be a specific issue that the parents cannot agree on, such as which school the child should attend, or if certain medical treatment should or shouldn’t be administered. If the parents cannot agree, the court can enforce an answer via a Specific Issue Order.
TOLATA (Trusts of Land and Appointment of Trustees Act)
TOLATA relates to disputes between two individuals who have lived together and now disagree on a matter relating to their cohabitation. Most commonly, this relates to disputes over who owns the property, what the split of ownership is, or who should remain in the property.
The Legal 500
The Legal 500 is a directory of solicitors and firms, broken down by geographic region and legal discipline. Solicitors are ranked in The Legal 500 based on their merit and experience, using publicly available information and information supplied by the firm. Annually, The Legal 500 issues awards to individual law firms and solicitors such as ‘Leading Individual’, ‘Recommended Lawyer’, ‘Rising Star’ and ‘Leading Firm’. It is worth noting that the ‘500’ in the name does not refer to the number of firms/solicitors that are ranked, which is actually a significantly larger number. Nonetheless, it is still a highly regarded award in the legal profession.
