Divorce asset split

The company are very professional, and my solicitor (Leah) was amazing. Leah provided excellent information and kept me fully informed through the whole process.

Friendly and professional

The firm was recommended to me by a friend of a friend because I did not want to ‘chance it’ on a random firm with no credibility. Luckily when I contacted Watkins and Gunn they assigned Leah Rhydderch to my case. Right from the start Leah was professional, sympathetic, supportive and friendly at a time when I was at my most vulnerable and lowest point in my life. Her great knowledge of family law put me at ease straight away and I felt I was in good hands at every step of the process. Leah’s professional communication approach along with seeking advice from other professional bodies reassured me with outlining exactly what needed to be done. Exactly what you need when faced with potential financial challenges resting precariously on a long hard fight with no end in sight. You need someone armed with experience and expertise to guide you through to the end, this is what I received from Leah. I hope to never be in a position again to need solicitor involvement for a relationship termination (it helps greatly if you don’t pair up with a gold digger) but if you should ever find yourself in that predicament, then I can highly recommend Leah to be your first choice.

The service Leah and the team provided was excellent. Leah's approach and communication was really good and her advise invaluable and personable. I really felt throughout that I received the best service and attention and that they cared about my situation. I will always go to Watkins and Gunn for any future legal requirements and would not hesitate in recommending them.

Outstanding. After several other solicitor companies not willing to help me and made me feel little, a friend which is high up in law recommend Watkins and Gunn solicitors. On arrival I was met by Leah Rhydderch who sat me down, and explained everything in simple form. Not long after a fair and good settlement. Thank you team.
