I approached Lisa to represent myself in a Pre Nuptial agreement at short notice. She provided good advice and ensured my assets were correctly included in the schedule. I would recommend to anyone wanting a efficient and professional service

Child Arrangements

We have unfortunately had to resort to Court proceedings to gain access to my son's daughter. Lisa has been excellent in her help and advice with this extremely stressful situation, we would not have known where to start without her. We would fully recommend The Eric Whitehead Partnership in all matters of Family Court issues.

Lisa gave an excellent service, explaining clearly the divorce process and I felt that she genuinely wanted to help me at this very stressful time in my life. I was given regular updates when necessary with no over contacting me which kept down the costs. I would highly recommend her.

I have been using the Solicitors here for a number of years. The most recent time my case has been going on nearly 3 years due to my ex partner dragging his feet, Lisa Cogger was on my case and kept up chasing all the way through. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone or the other Solicitors I've had dealings with. Lisa does reply to emails and telephones back etc if they couldn't take my call. I felt she knew what I was going through and helped me no end. I must say as soon as you walk through the door you are welcomed and the girls working in the back are all lovely and will do anything they can. I can't stress how brilliant everyone is, a really good team
