Highly professional and consistently wise counsel.

It seems trite to write something such as "divorce is never easy" and it really isn't. I am exceptionally grateful for the wise counsel provided by Chris who was very capably supported by Hannah. The advice I was given was very carefully considered and very wise. I was given clear and realistic expectations of how matters were likely to unfold and, although at times you worry that everything will go wrong as you get closer to the finish line, it became clear that Chris' experience and judgement were excellent. Of course nothing is certain but I felt that due diligence was being done every step of the way. I did not feel I was being pressured in any direction and genuine concern was expressed for my welfare. I received very humane support during what can feel like a very brutal and upsetting time, so I am very grateful.

Testimonial – Peter Ellis Over the past 25 years, I have instructed approximately 13–14 different matrimonial solicitors, including several prominent, London-based firms. Sadly, my experience with many of them was marked by a frustrating lack of care, professionalism, and, in some cases, outright ineptitude. Too often, I encountered what I can only describe as calculated, fee-generating practices that offered little value and even less empathy — a sentiment I know is echoed by many others in similar positions. It was on the recommendation of a trusted friend — who knew all too well my disillusionment with the legal profession — that I contacted Family Law Partners (UK) Ltd in Brighton. I initially hesitated, especially when asked to provide an extensive amount of personal information at the outset. However, with hindsight, I now see this as a logical and efficient step — a refreshing contrast to the endless back-and-forth that often serves little purpose beyond inflating bills. My principal contact, Lisa Burton-Durham, was a revelation. Pragmatic, realistic, and acutely cost-conscious, she focused not on prolonging the process, but on achieving a timely and sensible resolution with minimal stress. Her approach was intelligent and straightforward, marked by joint strategic planning and open consideration of all possible outcomes. This collaborative process not only saved time and money but also ensured a level of clarity and direction that had been sorely lacking in my previous dealings with other firms. In short, Family Law Partners delivered exactly what I had hoped for: a service that was transparent, fair, and grounded in both experience and understanding. I was charged reasonably for a result that met my expectations — something I genuinely doubt would have been possible without their involvement. I would urge anyone navigating the complexities of family law to exercise caution when choosing representation. In my experience, Family Law Partners (UK) Ltd stands apart — and I am grateful to have finally found a team that delivers on its promises. Peter Ellis

Superb team. Clear, sound advice and guidance. Patience, understanding, superb communication. Highly recommended. Best legal firm I have dealt with. Robert Williams and Chris Maulkin have been fantastic throughout, over a very stressful 3 year ordeal. Thank you all.
