Very knowledgeable and reassuring

My wife and I were struggling to agree on a financial settlement and I needed some expert advice to guide me on the legal process and what a court would decide. Joe was fantastic. He had researched my case beforehand, explained the law to me so I was properly informed, and advised me on the best way to communicate with my wife.

Joe Ferguson was supportive and gave me advice prior to our meeting, which made me decide to use Myerson. His knowledge, support and patience was exceptional,, making me feel like I was being dealt with as a real person rather than the appointment feeling I had to speed through everything so the appointment didn’t overrun. Joe has followed up on our appointment and has supported since. I would genuinely recommend

I can’t thank Joe Fergusson enough for the support and guidance he gave me during such a difficult time. Going through a divorce and dealing with a financial order was incredibly stressful, but he handled everything with professionalism, patience, and genuine care. He always explained things clearly, kept me updated, and made sure I felt supported throughout the whole process. What really stood out was how considerate and understanding he was during what was a very emotional period. He consistently followed up and made sure everything was fully resolved, which I really appreciated. I also want to mention the wider team, who were always so helpful, responsive, and reassuring whenever I had questions. That level of support made a real difference. I would highly recommend Myerson Solicitors to anyone needing a family solicitor.

Great guidance, support and services from Joe from the very first contact who helped me through my divorce process. Fees were clear and ended up within the range provided (thus no surprise at the end). Very professionnal and helpful, I would definitely recommend to anyone requiring family law guidance.

I initially got in touch just looking for some advice. From that first call right the way through to the consent order being agreed in court, the support and guidance have been excellent. Brittany and Joe have been extremely personable, professional and supportive throughout. Everything has been explained clearly and all my questions have been answered, which has made a difficult time much easier to manage.
