Vardags
The level of care and consideration shown to me by both Georgina Hamblin and Ella Welsby was truly something out of the ordinary. They were magnificent, in both practical and emotional terms, during what was a very upsetting and difficult period of my life. The advice given was always well considered and sound. In summary, do not think twice about engaging this firm, they have been nothing short of brilliant, and in my opinion you will not find better.
Nicole BarnesVardags is among the most effective, efficient, and successful group of solicitors I have encountered. They sit at the top table of skill and innovation in family law. Georgina Hamblin, Katherine Res Pritchard, Sarah Hogarth, and Rachel Cooper represented me.
Katherine Res Pritchard and Rachel Cooper have left me with equal shared parenting of my young child. I am grateful they were on my side.
They were remarkably caring and attentive to me during a difficult period.
Georgina Hamblin and Sarah Hogarth handled the financial side of my divorce. Due to my ex-wife and I reconciling for a period, I have worked with them for the past five years. When my position looked bleak, they protected me with a creative defense based upon legal precedent which I never imagined existed under English law.
Thanks to their tireless efforts, I walk away from this episode free to move on with both my career and my life in peace.
You may find good or even great lawyers, but based on my personal experience, they are the best.
Cliff KrauseI would like to say working with the staff at Vardags was a great support to me at at difficult time of my life but with their support and sensitivity I was able to get through the experience with less stress and ease. If anyone is looking for a good legal team I would recommend Vardags. They may cost a bit more but will give you a good service.
Brenda HartI was delighted with the first class service I received from Vardags. I found them to be thorough, efficient and professional, as well as compassionate, committed and caring. It was an absolute privilege to be supported with respect and delicacy as well as sensitivity and intelligence through one of the most difficult periods of my life. I would be extremely happy to recommend them.
EvaThroughout my time using Vardags I felt that I have always been in the best possible hands. I enjoyed an excellent level of service and received accurate and precise legal advice. The lawyers are hugely talented, sensitive and focused on getting the very best results. Their no-nonsense and direct approach is most valuable when time and costs are of the essence. I highly recommend them over and above any other law firm I have ever dealt with. Thank you Vardags.

OGR Stock Denton
From the moment you arrive in the reception at OGR Stock Denton, you already feel like you're in good hands. Graeme Fraser handled my case with the utmost professionalism, efficiency, and candour. His knowledge and application of the law is extensive, admirable and essential. I was always put at ease during our interactions, over what was a difficult period in my life.
I'd certainly recommend him (and the firm) without hesitation to anyone in need of Family Law services.
Ray BridgewaterI don’t have enough words to express my gratitude to Graeme Fraser in his application of law with my case. From the moment I met Graeme, he was professional, honest, reassuring and solution focused, at the same time very compassionate. I was particularly impressed that Graeme referenced a relevant landmark case at the very meeting. Graeme is very knowledgeable and competent.
I recently recommended a friend to Graeme and the feedback from them after speaking to Graeme was, ‘Graeme knows his stuff, thank you for recommending him’.
Thank you Graeme for your efforts to get the best outcome for me. I will continue to recommend you and OGR Stock Denton.
'CP, R'I would like to say a heartfelt thank you to Graeme Fraser of OGR Stock Denton for his support in helping me with my co-habitation case. He is professional, solution-oriented and strives to get the best outcome for his clients. He is an exemplary Family Law solicitor. I highly recommend Graeme- especially if you need advice or legal representation in the Cohabitation-field.
Ren CarIt is a real pleasure to be a client of yours as well an acquaintance. Your patience, thorough work and professionalism are impressive, especially for an overseas client who needs a comforting guidance in the English bureaucracy.
עדן דןI obtained a second opinion from Peter Martin (in Graeme Fraser's team) on several matters where my existing solicitor had been failing in both service and explanation of the status with my divorce case, and a brief review of the way forward for applying for probate in respect of my late mothers estate . I found Peter to be extremely knowledgeable and straight to the point. The advice given has probably saved me further expense and valuable time, and has clarified my position in respect of a formal complaint against my divorce case solicitor. I would be pleased to recommend him.

Mortlake Law
Richard is a real find - I was searching for a local solicitor to help with writing a will for myself and my wife. He took us through every stage of the process in plain English and made sure everything was covered thoroughly.
We have every faith in Richard's abilities and wouldn't hesitate to use his services again or to recommend him to others.
He has also recently handled my friend's divorce case and I know that my friend has been very impressed with him also.
Matt DavisRichard has insight, knowledge and expertise that I have not seen matched by any other legal professional I have seen. His work has been outstanding. Having gone through multiple solicitors in a complex case, Richard was the first person I found who could actually see into the situation and has done a stellar job in helping me with my legal requirements.
Farah BokhariRichard has provided my family with legal advice for a number of years, including Wills, Divorce, Child Custody , and even Car Parking Fines. During difficult times it really helps to have a kind attentive solicitor to put your mind at rest. Richard has always gone the extra mile, not only to get the job done, but also stays in regular contact to keep you updated on progress so you do not worry unnecessarily. I highly recommend Mortlake Law.

Slater Heelis
Mark Heptinstall of Slater Heelis is an exceptional lawyer. I found him to be extremely knowledgeable, approachable, down to earth and pragmatic. His advice was clear and always in my interest. Once I'd decided my course of action he was thorough, professional and quick. It felt I had a top barrister as my new best friend and I can't recommend him highly enough.
Dave ByronDear Mark,
Just a little note to thank you for your hard work in helping me through this very difficult time in my life. It was a pleasure to have you working for me.
I would have no hesitation in using your services again or recommending you to friends and acquaintances.
Please also say thank you to your collegues and receptionist who have also been very kind.
A satisfied client from A Chapman Manchester.
nathan burnI would highly recommend Mark Heptinstall as he is without doubt the most amazing solicitor.
I had used different legal representation during my divorce 2 years earlier which had been acrimonious. Each step was frustrated by my ex which added to the stress, duration and cost. I was never really comfortable with the advise I was receiving but stuck with it. I now know that much of this could have been avoided by the right legal representation.
On recommendation I approached Mark to complete the sale of the Former Matrimonial Home which was again being frustrated by my ex. Mark's approach to resolving this issue was remarkably different.
> Quickly gained a thorough understanding of my situation.
> Focussed and prioritised the major issues.
> Highlighted errors made by my previous solicitor and found solutions to effectively overcome them.
> Clearly communicated with the other side taking control.
> Presented my case in court effectively against counsel.
I was amazed that he won the case, and costs and then tied up the loose ends that I had written off.
Mark is so approachable, I felt like I was his only client. He is thorough, knowledgeable and takes no nonsense.
In summary EXCEPTIONAL!!
Ellen McCallumMark Heptinstall helped me throughout my divorce with his empathy and knowledge and competence.

CSL Law
Excellent service. Clive Lawrence made sure I understood everything I needed to and provided a thorough, professional and friendly experience.
Jonathan CopestakeI first used Clive about 9 years ago and have required his services periodically since. More recently I approached CSL to resolve one more matter. Clive was his usual friendly, efficient and considerate self, giving the best advice. I also had the opportunity to engage with Frances. I have to say that from day one, all the way through to the present matter, the service I received from both was first class. This law practice has been a real find and I would recommend anyone seeking advice on their particular areas of expertise pick up the phone, you won't regret it!
Scott SaundersI would not hesitate to recommend Mr C Lawrance in relation to legal matters. He kindly acted on my behalf throughout 2013 and I found his approach very warm and professional through a difficult time. He was always available to speak to and happy for me to pop into his office should I need to talk about more delicate matters for a longer period of time. He was consistent with the service provided, updating me regularly along the way by my chosen method. I can honestly say I chose an excellent Solicitor whom was actually recommended to me.
P KentHaving used the services of Mr Lawrance in the past I had no hesitation contacting them again to deal with Family and Divorce matters. The team at CSL Law have an ability to remain focused on what matters despite the surrounding levels of acrimony, and most impressively displayed the ability to quickly adjust my position as new information emerged in my case. The advice of Mr Lawrance and Mrs Kelly is well judged and grounded in reality whilst being brave, sensitive and unambiguously on the client’s side. I am in no doubt that if I had used a larger firm the results may have turned out very differently due to the complexity of my case.

Vardags
I would recommend Vardags in a heartbeat - from my first point of contact, meeting Simon McKirgan and Lucy Brown, who were so understanding, patient and kind, they have continued to be empathetic throughout. Lucy Brown is an exceptional lawyer whose attention to detail is second to none. She has been my rock, and without her support I would have floundered, but she has kept me positive and strong with her professionalism, eloquence and genuine concern for my welfare. She has carried a lot of my burden and I feel she is always looking after my best interest. I have every faith in her and the team and really appreciate the long hours they have dedicated to the work on my behalf. I have no doubt that I made the right choice when choosing this law firm. The best lawyers with a human touch!
Karen ParrettVardags helped me when I was at at my most vulnerable, they created a team around me that protected not only me but my assets too! I would like to thank the team for all they have done for me as it created the best possible outcome. Vardags worked in a punctual and tidy manner from the the start to the end of my case. I would not hesitate to recommend Vardags, thank you to Simon McKirgan, Catherine Doherty and Jonathan Ruffell.

ValerieSimply the best : They helped me through a very challenging divorce and with their support I managed to turn what appeared to be a hopeless lost cause into an outcome that allowed me to remain emotionally and financially intact. I felt supported by a dedicated and skilled team, fighting on my side to protect my interests. Beyond the direct legal work they were extremely knowledgable and creative in coordinating with other service providers when required, which was key in securing a fair financial result and, more importantly, maintaining my parental relationship with my young children during the divorce proceedings and beyond. Throughout the whole process they never lost sight of the best long term outcome, whilst always staying on top of procedure and providing flawless execution. I highly recommended them!

The case was dragging but Oliver Fisher were on point and they were very professional throughout. They worked with me to tackle the situation effectively, they made effort regardless, they always call back when I leave a message. They are genuinely one solicitor that gave me hope. Well Done and many thanks for everything.

Lisa Pepper steered me expertly through a tricky divorce. She was both human and highly professional and made things happen when I needed progress most. She was ever mindful of cost and respectful of my resources. So I’m very grateful to have been liberated from a difficult situation so deftly and thoughtfully. Many thanks!
Julia FinlayI can not thank Lisa enough for her support during a very difficult divorce. She always exercised sound judgement around what position to take, taking into account my circumstances and what was important for me for the future of our family. She was sensitive to my situation, always gave easy to understand, clear advice and her recommended course of action was always very well considered. Also, when she thought it was necessary to escalate to counsel for further advice / support I completely trusted her and her recommendations which were very solid. I couldn't recommend Osbornes and Lisa Pepper highly enough. I hold her client care, professionalism and expertise in high regard. She is a very experienced family lawyer that really cares about the outcomes for the people she is working with not just 'doing the job' - she wants to do the right thing.
Sara VandenbergheLegal expertise and, above all, emotional intelligence and support from Lisa Pepper. I am a barrister and like to think I know what a good lawyer looks like. I had a recommendation for Lisa from a very senior solicitor, at a time when I was locked in a particularly difficult stage. I needed someone who could communicate. I took the recommendation and the divorce is now, thankfully, just completing. In short, Lisa may just save you.

International Family Law Group
They're brilliant, incredibly professional and do what needs to be done. Won my case and resulted in me getting my kids home, they then followed up a while later to see how the kids were, showing they truly cared and aren't in it just for the money like some solicitors.

A highly professional and personable team that produced a very satisfactory outcome. I would have no hesitation in recommending these guys. Excellent work. Thank you.
Chris HeightonI have used both the Bromley and West Wickham branches since 2008. to take care of executing wills of three close relatives and selling their properties. More recently, my husband and I have used the West Wickham branch to write our wills and set up lasting powers of attorney. We cannot fault the way our affairs were taken care of. We were guided through each stage and explained the legal jargon. All staff we dealt with were extremely polite, friendly and very professional. Will definitely use their services again, and recommend them to others.
Barbara Field-HolmesVery professional company who are efficient and respond quickly to your requests. Very polite and nice people as well.

Trusted Reviews
The quality and content of feedback that clients have given via trusted review services such as Google and TrustPilot.
Recognised Accreditations
Formal accreditations that are awarded to firms based on their expertise and/or their outstanding working practices.
Award Winning
Industry-recognised awards for superior business practices, legal expertise or customer care.
Client Focused
Evidence of high quality client care, including reviews received, publishing and sharing legal knowledge, and quality of enquiry replies.
Reported Cases
The extent to which the solicitor has been involved in cases that have helped to shape and change wider family law.
Price Band
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.
Proven History
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.
Legal Specialism
The solicitor is well recognised for having a specialism in a particular area of family law, such as international divorce, abduction, or custody.
Rising Star
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.
