Family Court

Emotions are high when other people are slippery and dont always say whats true. BHO /Ruth pulled me back and made sure I kept to facts and stayed on course to whats needed to be heard in court.

Excellent service.

I have recently had Ruth Hawkins helping me on a case with my children. She was excellent from start to finish. My case involved the local authorities, Ruth was quick to be on their case whenever they slacked. Her assistant Sophie was also excellent, she kept me up to date on anything needed if Ruth was around or in office. I struggle to understand some things, Ruth and Sophie made sure things were simplified for me. I would highly recommend using BH&O. I am in fact using them again now for help against the LA not sticking to their plans. I could not thank them enough.

Custody of my grandson

Ruth and her team always communicated with me well, even when I was on holiday abroad regular contact was made which was reassuring. I was represented well in court and even the judge commented on what a good counsel I had from my barrister. All in all truly grateful for bho and the entire team for excellent customer service.

Calm and Considerate

Ruth Hawkins’ calm, considerate approach – always putting the children’s interests first – has helped me to navigate extremely complex circumstances in the best possible way.
