Fantastic service. Gemma was fabulous her strength and service was incredible.

Thanks to Gemma myself and my boys are now able to move forward securely to our future after a difficult financial resolution/divorce. Without her strength and encouragement I am not sure where we would be right now. A huge thank you to her for all of her support.

Gemma Whitchurch was exceptional. Her understanding and knowledge of the issues that I presented her with was a reassurance in every step of the way throughout the whole process. Hayley was outstanding also. Their support kept me going through a difficult and painful time. Professional, empathic, efficient, kind and realistic. Always felt that they were there.

Gemma is by far the best solicitor I have ever used.
She was friendly, approachable professional and knowledgable.
I was kept up to date at all times and my matter was dealt with proactively and quickly.
She gave great advice, that was timely and beneficial.
My matter was resolved with a positive outcome.
I would definitely use Gemma and Sydney Mitchell’s again should I ever need any legal support.
