This is my first time using a solicitor and I know I made the right choice. Samantha was so knowledgeable, professional and helpful. I'm so happy with the advice and service I received and will continue to use Samantha going forward.

Samantha was easy to talk to and covered everything asked in first one hour appointment, which was quickly confirmed in writing.

I have used a few solicitors in this branch and they have all been a great help

An Extremely Acrimonious Divorce
I would like to thank Samantha for dealing with my divorce in an extremely professional and caring way. Always chasing for answers and keeping me informed and up to date. She was always there for good advice during one of the most difficult and stressful times of my life. She helped me navigate 5 years of abuse from my husband and his partner and I would thoroughly recommend her to anyone who needs an ultimate professional that you can rely on during the extreme circumstances that divorce proceedings can put you through

Divorce advice
I contacted Samantha for advice about the divorce process and division of matrimonial assets. Her advice was clear and detailed and she answered all my queries. I came away understanding what my next steps were.

Family matters
By calling Ellison & having an hour talking about my family matters I felt a lot better.
It's early days but I won't hesitate to see you again.
