Extremely competent and caring
Andrew has helped me during one of the most devastating and stressful times in my life with divorce and a particularly complicated Family Law matter. Andrew has worked under sometimes extremely tight timelines and has always given watertight advice and always been available to speak to if urgently required. Andrew and other team members he has recommended to work with have helped me during extremely challenging situations and always focused on what's best for my three children. There were times I felt lost before meeting Andrew but I can honestly say I sleep better at night knowing Andrew is on the case. The matter is not completely resolved yet however Andrew has really helped to date and I would eagerly recommend Andrew and Slater Heelis during the most challenging times. Thank you so much for your help and support.

Divorce proceedings
Andrew was very approachable , good listener and made everything very clear to me . When I explained I am dyslexic, he was very professional and ensured I felt comfortable even if I needed extra support to make sure I had read and understood the process .
Originally I’d gone for a no fault divorce , unfortunately the situation changed . Andrew responded promptly ensuring correct procedures were followed, I was safe and everything then went smoothly.
I would definitely recommend him.

Excellent Service with Unflappable Stoicism
I had no idea I would fall apart so badly during this Financial Dispute Resolution. I was assigned Andrew midway through the process as a cost cutting exercise I believe. Many would think the service might be less but it proved to be far more engaged and his approach was faultless. He cleverly and sensitively diverted the "noise" and focussed purely on the relevant information, deflected a huge amount of unnecessary diatribe and superbly navigated me through many meltdowns without ever making me feel like an idiot, which I undoubtedly was. He chose the absolute best Barrister to represent me at the FDR combining his advice with sensitive financial savvy and guided me to the best choices I could make within the constraints of my own finances and I have no doubt that I could not have been given a better service from anyone with a lifetime of additional experience beyond his own. This man deserves every bit of praise I can heap on him. Thank you Andrew!

Fantastic experience with Andrew Scott
I worked with Andrew to get a consent order relating to finances through the court.
Andrew explained everything really well and went above and beyond. He replied promptly to my many emails. This was by no means a straight forward process due to my ex partner but Andrew made this as easy as possible and I really appreciated having him represent me. This is why I continue to work with Andrew in relation to child arrangements now!
