Vardags
I 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.
ValerieThe 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.

Patricia Robinson was great! Although a very accomplished lawyer, Patricia put me completely at ease from the moment I met her. She simplified such a complex matter in such a short space of time and I was really left in awe by her expertise.
I would not hesitate to recommend her.
Kathryn SusanTricia Robinson at Slater Heelis was recommended to me for my recent divorce. The service I received was second to none - efficient, friendly and straightforward. Tricia was a huge support to me and made a very challenging few months as pain free as possible - I would thoroughly recommend.
Holly AnneTricia gave me the best advice possible with her professional and informed responses to all of my issues. Thank you Tricia for getting the best outcome for both myself and my children.
Timothy EricWow, 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.

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.

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.
Alice TarryI 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.

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!

Recognised Accreditations
Formal accreditations that are awarded to firms based on their expertise and/or their outstanding working practices.
Award Winning

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.
