First class client service from start to finish

5

Alex Goldrein was my main point of contact from start to finished during my divorce. I chose Alex for her direct but friendly approach and we quickly built a strong working relationship. Alex did not overly correspond and got the balance of interaction with me spot on throughout our 18 months of dealings.
From the outset, Alex proactively advocated mediation for my case until this was rejected by the other side. After recommending an excellent barrister, we were able to create and submit a fair and balanced, without prejudice offer framed in current and relevant case law. Furthermore, Alex recommended a private FDR hearing process which accelerated the process and ultimately resulted in an outcome that was inline with my original without prejudice offer.
Alex has a strong legal mind, which is framed in the current and relevant direction of the institution of divorce law. She has been constantly available and supportive through this difficult time and has ultimately achieved an outcome that is very similar, if not better, than she articulated at the start of process. Would fully recommend Alex as a trusted legal advisor. Thank you!

Brilliant, Fantastic & World Class

5

I am very grateful that Alex dealt with my complex child arrangements case.

She is extremely astute, honest and passionate. She fought very hard to achieve the outcome I wished for. Alex supported me in the most difficult and stressful situation of my life.

She is very friendly, approachable and understanding. From the very beginning she understood the complexity of the case and fought tirelessly. Her grasp of international children law is exceptional!

I would highly recommend Alex to anyone going through a difficult time in getting contact with their children, especially when there's an international element.

Thank you so much Alex!

Excellent support through a difficult process

5

I would absolutely recommend Alexandra Goldrein from Slater Heelis to anyone going through a difficult divorce. Alex is very thorough in her approach, and very responsive, and she would always call me straight back when I had a question. She is also very compassionate and understanding and supported me through what became a very trying and upsetting process, explaining things clearly and honestly, and supporting me emotionally. She also checked in with me after the FDR and after the decree absolute to make sure I was OK and I genuinely felt that she did her very best for me. Alex changed law firms halfway through the process and I chose to follow her to Slater Heelis as I could not imagine dealing with anybody else. If I ever need a solicitor again, Alex would be my go-to person.

Alex has been there every step of the way, providing advice, guidance and emotional support, you really couldn’t ask for more. She was brilliant all the way through. I have recommended her to at least 5 other fathers and will continue to do so thanks to the great service and support I received .

Divorce case Excellent service

5

Absolutely fantastic service from the beginning to the end, right from my initial phone call enquiry. I felt so comfortable talking with Alex. She made my case seem as important to her as it was to me which made you feel well looked after and cared about. Sometimes I would even text her questions/queries late at night and there would be a reply waiting for me in the morning. Alex also quickly realised that I didn't quite understand all the legal language that solicitors use and would talk to me in words and terms that were simple for me to understand. I can't speak highly enough of Slater and Heelis and obviously imparticularly Alex Goldrein. Thank you for all you did for me

Having to go through divorce proceedings is an emotional time for all parties and families. Alexandra not only did she reassure me, but also members of my family that I would get a successful outcome that was fair I
I was let down badly from a previous firm of solicitors, who did seriously jeopardise my case. Slaterheelis and Alexandra Goldrein managed to turn around a near lost cause, to one that achieved a successful outcome. I am truly grateful for the support and legal advice Slaterheelis and Alexandra Goldrein gave me throughout a very difficult time of my life.

I have been incredibly fortunate to have Alexandra Goldrein acting as my lawyer. Divorce is never going to be easy, and being in lockdown/the pandemic added to the difficulty. Alex was a tower of strength and support to me during this time, and I genuinely would have struggled without her help.

Alex is razor sharp. She is a tactically astute family lawyer with incredible skill, gaining insight into your particular situation very quickly. Alex always acts with total professionalism and empathy. She is on the ball, very down to earth, and is one of the most genuinely caring people I have come across.

Alexandra Goldrein works tirelessly at a level way beyond her grade and is more than a match for anyone she comes up against - I would absolutely recommend her to anyone going through divorce, you will be in safe, skilled and supportive hands.

The Alexandra Goldrein review - Slater Heelis

5

You might think this review is fake because of how positive it is but I can assure you it’s not and it’s as genuine as it gets ! I’m only so passionate about this because I understand how it feels as a dad to be alienated from your child when you’ve done nothing wrong and you hit rock bottom so I’d like anyone seeing this that’s in a similar position to really listen.

I was panicking because I had just gotten rid of my old solicitor a week before my first court date in regards to contact with my son and Alexandra reached out to me after an enquiry.

I cannot stress that Alexandra had a week or so to get everything done that my previous solicitor at Harold G Walker had done poorly. Alexandra provided everything to a high quality along with providing me with what I believe the most important thing, honesty.

She also made me understand exactly where I stood and what I should do next etc and not only did it pay off but it actually made me understand exactly what’s going on and for someone who has no knowledge of this prior it was pretty clear.

Alexandra provided me with amazing communication and didn’t just view me as a money making scheme but as a human being going through genuine problems, this was reflected through her care when it came to approaching me with discussing finances and discussing the ongoing situation. I would definitely recommend her to anyone going through legal family troubles especially if you’re someone who is innocent and is being taken advantage of especially and in addition if you have the finances because she is definitely one of the very best you’ll find.
