Divorce and child care arrangements

I am very pleased to have found Katie as my solicitor. From the start I found her very easy to talk to, she listened very attentively and I felt she thoroughly understood my situation without judgement. Her legal knowledge was excellent and she managed my expectations from the start, always providing me with a balanced view. Her experience also showed through her insight and other wider (not specifically legal) knowledge and advice. She was an excellent advocate for me in court - calm, confident and not flustered by challenges. She was also very good at being able to recommend the right barristers and other professionals when needed. Communication was always very fast, and if she wasn't available there was another member of the team who knew my case and was available to me. Overall I was very impressed by Katie's ability to keep things on track and focus on getting to a resolution - she diffused potential issues with her rational and amenable nature and pragmatic approach. She had many methods to avoid conflict and try to resolve things out of court, but she was also sensible and didn't use costs on avenues that were proving to be pointless. My overall impression of Hartlaw is that it is a big enough firm to have all the legal knowledge and experience needed, but small enough to feel as though they all know and care about their clients.

Exceptional service

Katie was absolutely fantastic throughout my entire experience, right from our first meeting to the end where we signed off final paperwork. Katie was professional, caring, and very detailed in her work. I would 100% recommend Katie's services.

Outstanding Service

Katie supported me with help and advice during my divorce. I was unclear about many aspects of the process and Katie was professional, friendly and her knowledge was exceptional. She offered a balanced view on a very sensitive issue and I was fully reassured around the process and how to proceed. Katie's communication was excellent throughout. I would definitely recommend Katie to anyone. Fees are very reasonable and all costs are provided in a clear and transparent way at the start of the process and I felt they were exceptional value for money.

Extremely helpful

I came to Katie for advice after she was recommended to me via a friend. Katie was extremely helpful and friendly at what was an upsetting time for me, so she put me at ease and helped with any advice I needed.
