Clear, comprehensive and accurate advice.

5

Jeanette Birch answered all my questions regarding a care proceedings / special guardianship matter. Her advice proved to be very accurate and was clear and easy to understand. Due to the nature of my involvement in the case, only one appointment was necessary as I needed to understand the implications of becoming a special guardian, but Jeanette explained everything fully and is an expert in her field. Thank you.

Excellent Practice

5

I have found Sinclair Law Solicitors to be highly professional, friendly and knowledgeable.
Their attention to detail and expertise has been greatly appreciated, as I had no knowledge myself to deal with an extremely stressful and complex Family Law matter, as well as a Divorce. When things felt overwhelming they were there to reassure and guide.

Review of my divorce

5

My divorce was a particularly difficult one. My ex husband made everything extremely difficult and dragged the divorce out so that it took nearly two years to conclude. Jeanette was absolutely wonderful throughout the whole proceedings. She was incredibly professional and kind. She dealt with my ex husband and his solicitor in a tough but fair way. I felt that she always had my best interests at the forefront of her thoughts when giving advice and dealing with my ex husband’s solicitors. Jeanette went above and beyond in representing me, even having to deal with direct phone calls from my ex. I am incredibly grateful to her and all that she has done for me and cannot recommend her and Sinclair law enough.

Divorce & Finance

4

Jeanette and her team was assigned to represent me for my long & difficult divorce and finance.
I am satisfy with their service and appreciated that they found me an excellent counsel for the final hearing to handle complicated finance issues and to achieved the best possible result for regaining financial security for myself and 2 children. It is most stressful experience when you have to deal with uncooperative and abusive respondent, selecting an experience solicitor to be able to understand and come up with right strategies during the process is crucial. Jeanette is experience in family & divorce matters and I will recommend her to others who is looking for good family lawyer for complicated divorce with difficult spouse.

Review of a Newly Single Father

5

For what you could expect and image for a Father fighting to see their daughters it was a pleasure having them represent me in court and would again.
For most Fathers it is always an uphill battle and the stark difference in approaches is contrary to what most would like (coming out swinging) you have to sit back more than you like. That didn't stop Jeanette or the firm last time from fighting my corner on my behalf. It was recommended through a close friend who used to work with a a Snr member of the firm and from the get go every part of it was proactive and hit the right balance of the frustration I was forced into and how the court would like to hear it.
I think my descriptions I've tagged speak in my mind for themselves.
If I have to go to court again I will be looking to engage Sinclair Law again.
