Sophie Rayment is truly incredible

Sophie Rayment was truly incredible. After months and months of no progress and things not going how I'd hope in court, Sophie took over and suddenly everything started to fall into place. She went above and beyond to make sure deadlines were met, that I understood everything that was happening and that my statements were the best possible representation of my position and circumstances. I went from having nothing I wanted to everything in one hearing and I attribute this to Sophie and the incredible barrister she instructed. I would choose Sophie above any other solicitor going forward. Her responses were timely and informative, she took time to respond to my questions, no matter how obscure, and the depth and breadth of her legal knowledge surpasses anything I had experienced previously. I could not say one bad thing about my experience with her. Thank you for everything!

Absolutely amazing service

Sophie Raymond and Lucie Morris handled my urgent occupation order application with extreme care, compassion and kindness. They won the case for me and the barristers they appointed were amazing at the court hearings. I was kept fully informed by email and telephone calls regularly and have every faith in them for my upcoming Child Arrangement Order etc. I would 100% recommend this firm, especially the legal team who handled my case.

Excellent experience through a tough, lengthy case.

I can’t thank Duncan Lewis Solicitors enough, especially Barrister Anna Lampard and Director Sophie Rayment, for their outstanding support throughout a difficult family law case. From the very beginning, their communication was clear, compassionate, and incredibly reassuring. They kept me informed at every stage, explained everything in a way I could understand, and were always quick to respond to any questions or concerns. Their professionalism and genuine care made a stressful situation much more manageable. I felt supported and listened to throughout the entire process, and their dedication to achieving the best outcome for my daughter was truly appreciated. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone needing expert, empathetic legal guidance in family matters.

Forever thankful for your dedication

I cannot really express fully how thankful I am to Duncan Lewis and especially Sophie Rayment and Jade Whitelaw. There are no words that can describe how grateful you trully are, to the people that gave you back a little bit of control of your life and freedom. The knowledge, commitment and work they have put into my "eventful" case (as described by my barrister), doesn't go unnoticed. If I ever had to go back to court (although I hope it will not happen), I would be definitely coming back. Once again, massive THANK YOU for all your hard work. I cannot say much about the cost as I had Legal Aid. It was estimated to cost £10,000. At this point, I don't know if it was more or less than that 10k.
