Lengthy divorce settlement

4

Alyson provided invaluable advice and support during a lengthy and not always easy divorce process and financial settlement. When my 'ex' changed solicitors and engaged a quite high-profile representative, Alyson stood up and fought my corner very well in negotiations. I know she thinks I could have secured a better financial settlement; but the deal sat easily with my conscience and responsibility for it is mine alone. Thanks so much, Alyson, for all your work on my behalf.

Pleased & would use again

I work in law (different area) so I know how legal costs work. Whilst it cost me a fortune because it was a complicated matter, I always felt that the team at Howells were professional and trying to keep costs to a minimum. I know from experience that other law firms can be the complete opposite and will rack up as much costs as possible. I spoke to about 3 firms before deciding to instruct Howells. I spoke to Alyson and was impressed with her approach. I felt supported and well advised throughout. In the end I got a good result from divorce/financial split. I would think very carefully before getting married again but that is another story.

I would definitely use Howells again in the future because the service was professional and costs were fair/reasonable.

Divorce is never nice. When you are in the thick of it and cannot see the wood for the trees, you need people around you who are experienced, professional and also sympathetic to your needs. People who can guide you along the way.

Alyson Siddall and her team were every bit of this.

Nobody can prepare you for the stresses and anxiety most people going through a divorce will endure.

Having a friendly, straight talking shoulder to cry on, with a clear path to an exit is key.

Professional to the end, but equally a joy to talk things though with.

Many thanks again Alyson. I hope I never go though another ordeal like this, but if I do, I know where to come.

I can't praise Alyson Siddall and her team highly enough. They are meticulous, reassuring, and highly skilled, and have helped me through a very difficult time with professionalism and compassion. They are worth every penny I paid them.
