Professional, personal and precise!

It’s hard to express how much everyone at FLC has helped my son and I, on the two occasions we have needed it, over the last decade. Without the advice from Stephanie Walmsley and FLC, I truly believe, my son and I would not have been able to have the same relationship that we now have. I can’t recommend their services enough!

Expensive (as they all are!) yet valuable

5

Although lawyers are generally quite expensive, the support and advice Stephanie from FLC provided during my separation was incredibly helpful. She gave me the confidence that my stance was correct. However, from a financial standpoint, I would try to resolve matters without a solicitor in the future. If that wasn't possible, I would definitely reach out to Stephanie again.

I would just like to take the time to thank Stephanie, Pippa and Rachel who have been such a massive help to me with a recent split in a relationship with my partner and helping me to succeed in receiving my half of the property we shared together, I could not have done this without you all.

Recommend to everyone

I received first class advice and attention from Nicola and Stephanie regarding my divorce matters. The ladies in the front office were also very friendly which put me at ease in an incredibly stressful situation. Nicola made me feel very at ease every time I went to her office or over the phone. All bills I received were itemized so I could see exactly where every penny was spent. I would thoroughly recommend FLC for anyone seeking help to divorce

I would highly recommend the team at FLC for any family, divorce or financial settlement legal matters. During the two and a half years I dealt with Stephanie Walmsley and her team I received well considered professional advice and guidance and all matters were handled efficiently, accurately and in a timely manner. I would have no hesitation in employing FLC if I ever required their services again.

I highly recommend Stephanie and her FLC team!

I was losing hope when I found Stephanie and her wonderful team. My ex husband was preventing me from taking my daughter to visit my family abroad less than 3 weeks before my flights. He was threatening to take me to court on the unfounded grounds of child abduction with no evidence. I was receiving lots of letters from his solicitor causing me a lot of anxiety.

I had already contacted a few legal firms but I repeatedly experienced little empathy and the staff did not seek to understand the situation.

Luckily a great friend of mine recommended Stephanie to me who from the first moment I contacted her was respectful, caring, understanding and above all very professional.

Stephanie and her team represented me successfully in court twice.
My daughter and I were able to visit my family who we have not seen for three years, despite ex husband's attempts to prevent it.

Stephanie made sure she knew my whole proceedings history, she read and investigated all my paperwork. She worked hard and long hours on my case. She was like an investigator and because of that Stephanie also was able to identify the original child arrangements where written poorly. This had caused so much anguish for over three years. My ex-husband used any opportunity to punish me by withholding my daughter at his house through manipulation of the poorly written order.

Thanks to Stephanie and her team, from now on, every other year I will be able to spend Christmas or New Year with my beautiful daughter. As for the past four years this was denied to me by my ex husband who interpreted the Child Arrangements to his benefit. Stephanie was there to fight my corner and ensure true justice prevailed.

During court proceedings, Stephanie and my barrister Ms Helen Prinn, held my hand, informing me at every stage of the procedures and constantly reassured me.
Because of their exemplary representation, my ex-husband has been ordered by the court to reimburse my costs for unreasonable taking me to court in child procedures.

Words cannot express how thankful I am for their representation and moral support. I am now able to breath again and finally leaving behind a never ending court case by an abusive, vengeful ex-husband.

I highly recommend Stephanie W. legal services and her team of experts at FLC.

Stephanie Walmsley of Family Law Consultancy, Norwich, acted for me in a straight, honest and friendly manner

I’m writing to personally thank Stephanie Walmsley of Family Law Consultancy (FLC), 15 Charing Cross, Norwich, NR2 4AX, for offering me such good, friendly and trusted advice concerning matters relating to my recent divorce. She carried out her duties on my behalf in a diligent, understanding and fair manner whilst always acting to the highest professional standards of her chosen profession. I can honestly say that I was extremely pleased with the outcome and settlement that concluded my divorce proceedings. I must add, too, that Stephanie greatly eased the stress and strain of going through a difficult and complicated divorce by keeping me well informed and closely updated on matters arising practically on a daily basis. Therefore, I have no hesitation in recommending Stephanie of Family Law Consultancy to navigate one through the myriad of intricacies embedded in a matrimonial split. By the way, Stephanie was highly recommended to me by a good friend.

Friendly, professional service received, the whole team went above and beyond the call of professional duty to help me through a very difficult divorce which spanned over approx 2 years. With regard to other reviewers monetary concerns, from my perspective, I have experienced the complete opposite this firm went out of their way to help me contain and spread my costs and assist in every way they possibly could to keep costs manageable. I was advised from the beginning an estimated figure and at every step I was kept aware, no costs were incurred without a full discussion and my consent. I found this Family Law Consultancy firm to be exactly what one would wish for
during a family divorce including Child Custody and Financial settlement. A very sad and difficult time where you truly want your team to fully understand and empathise with your situation whilst proving best solid and realistic advice. I would not hesitate to recommend Stephanie Walmsley and her team. MANY THANKS FLC LTD

A year and a half ago I sought the help of FLC and I am so glad I did. To say the team there, and most especially Stephanie Walmsley, changed my life for the better, is an understatement!
I had been in a difficult family situation for around 5 years of which I thought there was no way out. I was never promised miracles by FLC and they were always cautious to tell me what all my options and limitations were at each moment. Not coming from a legal background, I was grateful that things were always respectfully explained to me in a way that I could fully understand.
It was not a short or easy process, but I can envisage that it would have been a lot more stressful if it wasn’t for the team at FLC.
I am happy to say that thanks to Stephanie Walmsley and her team, my greatest wish came true, which was my freedom. Their first priority was, of course, helping me win my case, but I am also happy to say that throughout the process, the best outcome for all parties was also an ideal they strived for which means that things were resolved in the most amicable way possible given the circumstances which makes my continuing daily life easier.
I really couldn’t thank FLC enough for their attention to detail, determination to succeed, genuine kindness and always being there. I will always be grateful to them.
