I recently had the pleasure of working with Knocker & Foskett, and I cannot express my gratitude enough for the outstanding service provided. From start to finish, their expertise, professionalism, and dedication to my case were truly remarkable. One of the most impressive aspects of their service was their ability to explain complex legal concepts in a way that was easy for me to understand. They took the time to patiently answer all my questions, ensuring I felt informed and empowered throughout the entire process. Their communication skills were top-notch, and I always felt like a priority. Furthermore, their attention to detail was exceptional. They left no stone unturned in researching and preparing my case, ensuring that every legal avenue was explored for my benefit. Their commitment to excellence was evident in every document they prepared and every step they took to advocate on my behalf. The outcome of my case exceeded my expectations, and I credit this success to the exceptional solicitors who worked tirelessly on my behalf. Their dedication to achieving the best possible outcome was evident throughout the entire process. I wholeheartedly recommend the services of these solicitors to anyone in need of legal assistance. Their expertise, professionalism, attention to detail, and compassion make them an exceptional choice for any legal matter. I am truly grateful for their help, and I can confidently say that they are among the best solicitors I have had the pleasure of working with. Thank you for your outstanding service!

Sam Shoesmith

Sam Shoesmith (Senior Dispute Solicitor) Sam was my solicitor from June 2020 to June 2025, through covid and beyond. In the whole of the 5years Sam has always provided exemplary professional advice and always sound pragmatic options and ways to proceed. I needed to find Sam when a family member engaged a solicitor as an attempt to try to force an early submission when I uncovered money being loaned over the previous 10 years before my father passed. They tried to say that it was gifted but all the paperwork and bank statements showed all the alleged moneys were clearly documented as being lent. I needed to find a litigation solicitor, and ideallly a good litigation solicitor, there weren't that many around when I was looking. I asked around my network of contacts who had insight into the legal profession in/around kent. Sams name came up from 2 or three people as an extremely competent and solid litigation solicitor that had had cut his teeth as a contract lawyer. This, I thought was an exceptional candidate, and had no concerns engaging Sam. This good feeling was only vindicated when we met to start, what would turn out to be, a 5yr journey. Sams pragmatic, professional open and approachable manner was always on the money. This along with his prompt replies or informing communication (both eMail and when urgent or appropriate phone call) meant that at no time did I feel doubt or uncertainty in the way my case was being managed. During the 5yrs yrs Sam has built his reputation in the Litigation field and advanced in his recognition to being a Senior Litigation Solicitor. This has been from when i engaged his services with CWJ in Orpington, through Knocker & Foskett in Sevenoaks to WM in Maidstone. Sam in comparison to my assigned FamilyTrust solicitor, who was anything but knowledgeable or supportive, was the polar opposite. In summary if you need initial advice, or to engage a solicitor in any form of dispute resolution, contact Sam and have an initial chat. Sam will always be there for you. Just for good measure Sams final bill was fair and given the amount of work less than it could have been. Every Penny very well invested into an exceptional litigation solicitor but also a genuinely caring and decent human being. Thank you Sam you made something that is regularly a horror story into an informed, and nearly a pleasant, but always an informed and manageable experience

I had the pleasure of working with Sam for a number of complex litigation matters, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From the outset, his expertise and professionalism were immediately apparent. What truly sets Sam apart is his ability to offer clear, practical, and strategic advice. He took the time to thoroughly understand our cases, explained my options in a way that was easy to understand, and helped me navigate the complexities of litigation with confidence. His guidance was not only legally sound but also pragmatic, focusing on achieving the best possible outcome while minimising risk. Throughout the entire process, Sam demonstrated exceptional communication skills.
