We have worked with a few solicitors over the years trying to resolve family issues concerning child arrangements, but none quite like Sarah Ward. Sarah is a fantastic no-nonsense solicitor who is professional, courteous, and friendly. The service she has provided has been exceptional and I would recommend her to anyone, especially those, such as us, who have struggled with proceedings for years without resolution. Her guidance and advice have been immeasurable.

I cannot recommend Sarah highly enough! As the best divorce lawyer in the area, she handled my case with exceptional expertise and compassion.

Her negotiation skills are top-notch, and she worked diligently to secure a favorable outcome for me without the stress of a prolonged court battle.

I can’t express enough how grateful I am to have had Sarah by my side during one of the most challenging times in my life. From our very first meeting, it was clear that I was in capable hands.
Sarah provided not only expert legal advice but also emotional support that I desperately needed. She took the time to understand my unique situation and never judged me. Her negotiation skills were impressive, and I felt confident knowing she was fighting for me every step of the way.
Communication was always clear and prompt, which helped reduce my anxiety throughout the process. I truly felt like I had a partner in this journey, rather than just a lawyer.
If you’re looking for someone who is knowledgeable, compassionate, and fiercely dedicated to their clients, I highly recommend Sarah. Thank you for making a difficult situation so much easier! 🙏💼✨

Thank You
I got in touch with a few firms after the breakdown of my marriage regarding divorce and childcare arrangements. Sarah quickly called me back and I was immediately impressed with her knowledge and confidence in my particular case as I was feeling very hard done by with my situation regarding divorce settlement and current childcare arrangements/ maintenance payments.
There was a point where I felt we were at a stalemate with my ex and her solicitor, lots of back and forth without much progress - because of the advice I'd received, I felt confident to instruct Sarah to stop working the case because I wanted to keep my costs down. Sarah had no problem with this and made it clear that she was there if I needed her. I managed to come to an agreement about the divorce settlement so I got back in touch with Sarah and Hannah who got it over the line for me. I have the financial clean break from my ex wife, my daughter equal nights and significantly reduced maintenance payments. Thank you Hannah and Sarah.

Sarah Ward - Family Law (Child Relocation)
Sarah has supported me through family court proceedings with an incredible combination of professionalism, empathy and knowledge. From our very first conversation I had complete trust and confidence in Sarah, based on her candid response to my circumstances and her ability - and commitment - to navigate the complex procedures with diligence and care. Sarah's approach was fundamental in enabling me to manage my expectations and take the appropriate action, with comprehensive guidance and support provided at every step. Sarah has an exceptional ability to develop a professional relationship based on mutual respect and honesty, and this was evidenced in the ongoing communication throughout the process. Sarah was able to acknowledge the emotional impact of the circumstances with empathy, whilst steering my focus with pragmatism.
It is Sarah's resilience and professional brilliance that has, undoubtedly, resulted in me receiving the outcome that I was seeking and I will be forever grateful.

Many thanks Sarah and hannah
I contacted Sarah on a recommendation from a friend .
From the intial phone call with Sarah I knew I was in good hands
She explained everything to me from how to apply for the divorce ,stages we needed to go through and estimated time frame
Throughout the difficult times Sarah and hannah (the dream team !!)were only an email away to put my mind at rest and deal with the situation as it arose.
They both worked so hard and tirelessly to make sure I achieved a fair outcome to my divorce settlement to which I will always be grateful.
Sarah and hannah thankyou so much.

What a pair of angels !
Divorce is never easy and normally by the time you get to the end of your marriage your tired of the fight to keep your marriage to start the fight for divorce. My first point of call was Hannah who gave me excellent advice and arranged a call with Sarah immediately; from that day forward every barrier that was put in my way I felt like I had Hannah and Sarah lifting me over. The stress and upset was absorbed by them and the were always honest and managed my expectations with just the right amount of tenacity. I has regular check in's from Hannah that were reassuring and I knew I always had someone on my side, she even listened to my rants and was a great confident - she was strong when I was not! They kept me informed of every step and when the divorce finally came through both were eager to tell me - even Hannah who had just given birth!
I couldn't recommend them enough and I can never thank them enough for their support and empathy during this time.

Having Sarah as my lawyer has been like having a best friend at my side throughout my divorce. The first time we met I was a complete wreck, we barely spoke - Sarah just held me, made me feel safe and made me believe that I mattered. She has checked in on me every day since. Sarah has managed to make me cry with laughter on days I thought I would never smile again. She has always helped me find the rainbow on a rainy day. Sarah fought so hard to ensure that I exited my marriage with a generous settlement. I may have lost a husband but I have gained so much more, not least a new friend in Sarah, a house, a pension and my independence. My divorce would have been an awful ugly experience without Sarah.

3 other lawyers in the region had charged me a fortune, got me into debt and not progressed my divorce. I was at my wits end. My colleague showed me the reviews on this site for Sarah (who is a friend of hers). I decided to get in touch. This was possibly the best decision I have ever made. The reviews on this site do not do this absolute legend of a lawyer justice. From that very first call I had absolute faith in Sarah to progress my divorce, get me a fair outcome and to work within my budget. She achieved all of those things and so much more. Sarah is an amazing person. She totally understood my frustrations, my fears and my needs. It’s cliche but she has been my absolute rock. My superhero. If you are needing a divorce lawyer, you need Sarah.
