The Practice fully deserves its five stars. I dealt directly with Joanne, who was unwavering in her professionalism and provided expert counsel throughout. In fact, all contact points were always professional and provided a superb service.
Neville WhartonThe situation was complicated by my husband trying to conceal and deny his assets, but it was obvious Joanne Major was used to dealing with these sorts of issues nor was she fazed by bullish correspondence from my husband's solicitor.
Although she was compassionate, she was still able to give constructive and pragmatic advice and without her assistance I doubt I could have achieved the justice I obtained at the conclusion of my case.
Claire AshwoodDuring the past months, Joanne Major and her team have dealt very professionally and with great understanding of my difficult situation. During my divorce and division of assets, despite there being many reasons and occasions to be exasperated by the behaviour of my ex-wife, Major Family Law handled the situation very well and stuck to the matter at hand. In addition to Joanne, the staff team and particularly Rebecca, Helen and Avril, gave me tremendous support during a very trying time. Barrister Roger Bickerdike, recommended by Joanne, provided a flawless counsel.
I cannot thank the team enough.
Peter JacksonI found Major Law Firm first class in all respects. Joanne Major and her team always delivered excellent service, were easily accessible and gave me expert guidance / advice at all times. I would have no hesitation in recommending them the others.
Kevin PattisonI saw Joanne due to my Marriage ending, i needed advice on how to proceed and where i stood financially. She gave me a lot of advice that i took on board, i can't thank her and her team enough for their help. I would highly recommend Major Family Law.
Deb StobbsJoanne major is the consummate professional - she provided quick, clear and sensible advice, for which I am very grateful. She was definitely worth every penny.
David StewartMajor Family Law is an outstanding law firm that is cable of handling highly sensitive issues in an effective and caring manner. Joanne Major and her team are such a friendly bunch and I would recommend them for all family matters.

I received exceptional service from Sam Carter, an associate at Major Law. Sam was simply magnificent and provided clear and honest advice as well as fabulous support during a very emotive child relocation case. Sam was extremely responsive to any questions or queries I may have had and always responded in a timely fashion. Sam was always professional and showed empathy and guidance which I am truly grateful for and I genuinely do not believe that I would have succeeded without Sam as he provided me with the confidence to fight and continue during a very difficult and distressing time for my family. I would not hesitate to use Sam again in the future regarding any future representation I required and his ability and knowledge shone through. Thank you again. My family deeply appreciate everything Sam did and I cannot tell you how much of a positive difference he made.
Mintie boyceI approached Major family law after looking for top family law firms in the North East. From start the finish I was impressed. Sam offered a consultation of 45 minutes which straight away gave me the confidence to go with Major Family Law. Sam was incredibly understanding as I was obviously extremely stressed under the circumstances. He always calmed me down, was easy to contact, provided me with all the information I needed and more importantly worked hard to win my case. As it was a relocation case it was an upward battle and prospects seemed low however Sam worked tirelessly even when he was on holiday to ensure my case was always moving forward. I could not recommend Sam enough. He was an excellent solicitor who did everything he could to help me. His knowledge was excellent, he was very well connected, he understood financial situations and communicated well. Thank you Sam for all your help and for giving my family the opportunity to start their new life abroad.
Taryn CunninghamWe can’t thank Major Family Law enough. Sam Carter dealt with our matter regarding Step-parent Parental Responsibility. Through the whole process Sam was very knowledgeable and reassuring, communication was second to none. In addition to this, we was able to gain the positive outcome we hoped for. An extremely professional and efficient service which we highly recommend. Thank you Sam.
Carol SmithI cannot recommend Sam Carter enough for his hard work and professionalism. Should I require any legal services in the future Major family law will be my first choice.
Ashley ThirlwellI will always be eternally grateful for all the hard work Sam Carter and team did for me and my family.
I cannot sing Major family law's praises loud enough, nothing was ever too much, no deadline was too soon and work and representation always exceptional!
Going through the family court system was one of the toughest things that I have ever endured, but with Sam to guide me through all of the available options and to guide me through the procedure by explaining each step of the way in a manner that I could comprehend it didn't seem too daunting.
I often called Sam in a panic and always hung up the phone call feeling relieved and calm knowing that Sam would do everything in his power.
From the bottom of my heart i am eternally grateful for their tireless work.
Thank you.

We had an excellent experience with Major Family Law who dealt with a cross border guardianship matter for us. Sam Carter was a pleasure to deal with; professional , personable and persuasive, he managed to achieve not only our desired outcome in the court proceedings, but also was able to convince the judge to make an order on another related matter to avoid us having to pursue that separately through the Scottish courts. Great service.
Jo WaltersI was recommended Major Family Law by a close friend after going through an extremely traumatic time with my ex partner. Sam Carter was not only exceptionally knowledgeable, he was also compassionate and empathetic with the sensitive nature of the case. He was given just over a days notice of our urgent court hearing and arranged an excellent barrister for a court location of over 300 miles from his office. The firm were happy to take on the case despite our South London location. Sam was highly professional, rose to the challenge and got the outcome needed for our family. Many thanks Louise,
Tom SproxtonSam Carter helped me through a very stressful situation regarding my children. Very professional from start to finish and always on hand to offer advice and how to move forward legally. Thank you for supporting me to achieve the outcome we did.
Lauren MackenzieThank you for your professional and personable advice regarding my family law case. I don’t hesitate in recommending your practice, and Sam Carter and his team, to my friends and colleagues.
Jesse TindallMajor Family Law have been an absolute rock on which i have relied throughout what has been a very difficult time for me and my family. I cannot rate Sam and his team highly enough for both the way they handled the often difficult legal aspects of the case, as well as how they helped me personally deal with the many difficult and complex challenges we faced and for always being available, even when i just needed some personal reassurance.

I was fully satisfied with the services of Franklin solicitors. And therefore recommend them to my friends and family whenever they need.
Mr RamzanFrom what was a very difficult time in my life, Kelly (part of Emily's team) and her team at Franklins made the whole divorce process swift and easy. They explained the whole divorce stage by stage, entitlements and made outstanding efforts during Covid Lockdown. I would recommend them to anyone going through the same process as they were really kind and helpful during a quite emotional time.

Lynsey and the rest of the team at SP Law have been brilliant sorting out my documents and representation for my family law issues in court. I would normally leave a 4 star review on the grounds that there is always something to improve on, however, Lyndsey made time for me at short notice, just a week before the hearing and heard me out without a single issue
Communication - relatability- prompt and thorough-friendly-helpful.
Excellent from start to finish. Superb advice, pragmatic and logical as well as value for money. Currently using for family law which is encompassing a wide variety of departments. Have used others who were more expensive in London and Northampton but soon realised the individuals who work here from the front desk, accounts, assistants and solicitors are second to none. I can not praise my solicitor enough (which I thought I would never praise a solicitor in my lifetime). Highly recommended.

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?
