A Compassionate Legal Champion: A Review of Jane Tenquist
I cannot express enough gratitude for Jane Tenquist and her exceptional team at Myerson. During one of the most challenging periods of my life, they provided invaluable legal counsel and unwavering support.
Ms Jane Tenquist is not only a brilliant legal mind but also an incredibly compassionate and understanding individual. She approached my divorce and financial settlement case with a keen eye for detail and a strategic approach, ensuring I received the best possible outcome. Her ability to navigate complex legal matters with ease and clarity was truly impressive.
Beyond her legal expertise, Jane Tenquist possesses a unique ability to connect with her clients on a personal level. She listened attentively to my concerns, answered my questions patiently, and provided guidance that helped me navigate the emotional turmoil of the process. Her genuine care and empathy made a significant difference in my experience.
The entire team at Myerson was equally exceptional including Nichola Bright, Pam Ackerley and Sarah Whitelegge. They were always responsive, efficient, and professional. Their dedication to my case was evident in every interaction, and I felt confident that I was in good hands throughout the entire process.
I wholeheartedly recommend Myerson and her team to anyone facing a similar situation. Their expertise, compassion, and unwavering commitment to their clients are truly commendable.

I cannot recommend enough..
I felt so supported and well informed by Sarah whilst going through a tricky divorce. I never doubted her advice or judgement and she never proved me wrong. Great communication at all times.

Divorce
I have been very happy with Mysersons Solicitors whom were recommended to me by a Barrister friend. I found dealing with Nichola Bright positive and reassuring from the start for which I am so grateful for as at times, emotionally, I was near rock bottom.

Nichola Bright - Highly Recommended - Myerson Solicitor
I can't recommend Nichola Bright enough. The advice, knowledge and support she gave was second to none and it was this support that got me through a difficult eighteen months. She was always positive that the strategy we took was the right strategy and the eventual outcome was inline with what she told me would happen. The cost's were all explained and she kept me informed on where we were throughout the process. The barristers she recommended were a perfect fit to my personality which made it easier when we went to court. I have used Myerson Solicitors twice now and I would recommend Nichola / Myerson's to any of my friends in a similar situation.

After having been let down by solicitors in the past it was a very pleasant surprise to find that Myerson's were a caring solicitor's who put their clients needs first. I really couldn't fault your service.
From the very first phone call I knew I was in good hands at myerson's. It was very distressing and emotional situation for me yet I was guided through the whole process of divorce with a sincere and caring approach by Nichola. She is polite and courteous and made sure I understood every step. She always without fail responded to emails and phone calls promptly and answered all my questions in full. Her correspondence on my behalf were both professional and supportive. No costs were hidden from me even when the original estiate was exceeded, I was kept informed. Nichola has been much more than a solicitors, she has been a friend and has given me back my confidence. I would without hesitation recommend Nichola + Myerson's solicitors.
