Extremely happy with Lisa's continuous engagement throughout a very depressing time for myself. She provided much needed but firm encouragement even through limited responses from myself (losing hope). Fantastic result eventually obtained and I am certainly more than happy to recommend Lisa - Keep up the good work Lisa.
Steve GillamLisa is such an incredible solicitor. She took over from another solicitor in another firm who was dealing with the financial aspect of my divorce. It was taking forever and I was still not getting anywhere after 2 years. Lisa gave me excellent advice and was extremely robust when dealing with the other side. She kept the pressure on and we managed to get everything we asked for. We have finally settled after 4 months. If you need any help in family law, Lisa is the solicitor you need. Professional, knowledgeable, responsive, hard working, robust and kind. She is the person you need on your side. Thank you so much for all your help Lisa, you've been incredible and I don’t know what I would have done without you!
Lisa ChooramunLisa Burton-Durham was recommended to me and I would be perfectly happy to provide an onward recommendation to anyone else. She kept me informed and advised, throughout what is always likely to be an unfortunate and sometimes delicate process. Thank you Lisa.
Andrew PigottLisa made a very stressful period, bearable and manageable. Compassionate, thorough and professional in every aspect.
Effective and prompt communication helped the process run as smoothly as possible, in extremely trying circumstances.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend.
Family Law Partners were great at helping to settle a marital dispute. The service has been very professional yet sympathetic and supportive. Lisa provided excellent, appropriate advice and recommended a barrister when appropriate. I would highly recommend their services.

Amelia Bohills has been my solicitor at Burt Brill & Cardens & I can't praise her highly enough. The service I received has been professional, thorough & efficient but also the customer service has been second to none. I recommend her particularly to anyone going through a difficult time, she has been extremely understanding & persistent when my case has been nothing but awkward & frustrating to say the very least. I would definitely go to her again, should the need arise.
Rachel MitchellWas going through my divorce and my lawyer Amelia did an amazing job. She was professional, knowledgeable and helped me every step of the way through this tough situation. Will go back if I ever require a lawyer again. 10/10 would recommend.
Arthur MoninBrilliant service from start to finish. Always available to talk to and not only was sound legal advice given, but Amelia provided me with some much needed emotional advice throughout everything. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing family legal advice and without hesitation will be using the company again for future legal services.
Sarah SkingsleyAmelia Bohills dealt with my case in a calm and professional manner and assisted greatly in reaching conclusion. I would have no hesitation is recommending her to any client requiring the services of a first class family law specialist.

Julian Hunt was my divorce solicitor and was thorough, detailed, knowledgeable - and also compassionate and supportive.
Julian Hunt and Paul Green treated me well during the 2-month divorce process. I am grateful for all their help.

I have used Edward Harte for 50 years and most recently Anna Glenton a Partner. Their service, advice and integrity is beyond reproach . Their charges are in line with all Solicitors. It remains a pleasure to do have done business with them .The company remains of the highest calibre so consistent with the founder , the late Mr Edward Harte. I live aboard so my future occasion to use them will be very limited but I would not hesitate to use them in future. They have also been used by other members of my family living in the UK.
Ian KempVery professional and understanding service, I would happily use them again and recommend them to others.
Lucy HighamIncredibly friendly, professional and accommodating. It is a joy to find a firm who looks after their clients like Edward Harte do.

However 'amicable' the divorce, the process is not an easy one from either emotional or administrative perspectives. Jo's support and empathy certainly eased the heartache and her professional and very responsive approach simplified the bureaucracy.
Pam BellI was and remain deeply grateful to Jo for her help during a terrible time. She was prompt in her response to requests, never made me feel stupid for asking basic questions, encouraged me to look for positive options forward, and suggested a mediator who proved considerate, firm and steady. Her focus appeared to me to be always on achieving the best overall outcome both financially and emotionally for her client, rather than on maximising the profit from the situation; and I really appreciated that.
I have recommended her unreservedly to others in a similar situation. She is a really helpful, efficient lawyer, and a lovely warm and kind person.
I have been in contact with Jo at various points during the past three years. From the start, she provided excellent advice and guidance on the issues in question and I would not hesitate to recommend her services to others. Jo was supportive and explained things clearly during the difficult process of going to court. She worked diligently on the case and kept me informed and up to date. Jo has also helped me to link in with other professionals relevant to the circumstances following the court case which has been greatly appreciated.
Sarah TarazThroughout an exhausting and seemingly unending process Jo has been dedicated and so incredibly patient. I would thoroughly recommend her to anybody going through divorce. Despite the many obstructions we faced she kept going and she got me the result I was hoping for. My situation meant we had to deal with so much back and forth over such a long period of time and yet she was unshakable. I can not thank Jo enough she has been amazing and I'm so glad that she was the one looking out for me during such a difficult time.

I went to Martin cray & Co. When I needed advise on how to approach a situation and start court proceedings. I had used them previously
Donna Robinson has been fantastic throughout guiding me at every step no false hope was given to me just facts and what approach we needed to take. When compared to the other side's solicitor its very clear to see the level of professionalism she provided. It couldn't of been done without their amazing legal help I can't thank them enough
An extremely professional and approachable practice.

If I could give an abundance of stars to rate Brighton and Hove Law I would. They have given an excellent service all round. The care and personal attention given has been amazing. The support and understanding has been unmeasurable. There have been times many times when I have thought there were no answers, but time and time again Lucy had the answers and resolved many an awkward situation. Adding to that the cost has been manageable. It's always a worry that you cannot find the money to move forward with your life but Lucy has enabled me to do this.
Thank you so much Lucy. You have been so kind to me and I couldn't have got through this without you.
Lucy has the rare quality of combining compassion and understanding with excellent knowledge and professionalism. She always made sure I understood what were sometimes difficult legal processes and she was realistic about timeframes and risks. Lucy manages to calm difficult situations and we got the best result possible. I hope I won't need her services again but have already recommended her to a colleague.
Liz CannonLucy provided services as my solicitor long-distance. I was residing in the US while my case was ongoing in the UK court. I had the pleasure of meeting her face-to-face for an initial consultation before my return to the US and from that point on she was very professional in all correspondence until matters came to a conclusion.
She was always very happy to answer questions thoroughly and schedule long-distance phone calls when I requested them. She has a very kind and professional nature. Needless to say, she made what could have been an exhausting process extremely painless. I highly recommend her

Each solicitor listed by Wiselaw is independently researched and considered against strict criteria. Examples of the criteria are shown below.
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?
