"She made my court case very manageable, understood my goals and concerns and supported my decisions throughout and in doing so, I am now able to have a more shared-care arrangement with my daughter. I could not have asked for much more from Kamila."

I approached Stowe to provide advice on a sensitive matter regarding family law. The solicitor to whom I was appointed was exceptionally knowledgeable, approachable and amenable. I left the appointment with a wealth of information and feel comforted and confident of the next steps. I would highly recommend

Providing a high level of service with clear and consistent communication is always our priority, so your comments mean a great deal. We wish you all the best for the future, The Stowe Family Law Exeter team.
I cannot express enough gratitude for Zoe Carter, Hannah Wile, and the entire team who have supported me through a profoundly challenging period. Navigating such a complex time felt utterly overwhelming, but their unwavering professionalism, profound empathy, and strategic brilliance have been a true lifeline. From the very beginning, they didn't just offer legal advice; they offered genuine understanding. They truly "got" the unique situation I was in, and consistently helped me feel supported and seen. Zoe and Hannah, in particular, demonstrated an incredible ability to balance firm legal guidance with a deeply human touch. They were meticulous in addressing every detail and their guidance on how to navigate difficult situations was invaluable. They empowered me to stand firm, reminding me of the loving father I am. Their support has been more than just legal representation; it's been a constant source of reassurance and strength. They've helped me see the path forward, even when I couldn't, and for that, I am eternally grateful. They are not just exceptional solicitors; they are truly compassionate advocates. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for everything.
Thank you for your review. We appreciate the positive feedback you have given us and look forward to working with you in the future.

I cannot recommend Gemma from Stowe Family Law highly enough. When I first instructed the firm, I had carefully chosen my solicitor and was extremely happy with the support I was receiving. When she left the company and I was informed that Gemma would be taking over my case, I was understandably upset and concerned. I had built a strong rapport with my original solicitor and was worried that changing representation part way through such an important and emotional process could negatively affect my case. However, from my very first meeting with Gemma, all of those concerns disappeared. She immediately put me at ease with her warm, personable and professional approach. Throughout my case, I always felt that she genuinely cared about achieving the best possible outcome for me and that she was firmly in my corner every step of the way. My case presented a number of challenges, and there were times when the process felt overwhelming. Gemma's guidance, expertise and reassurance were invaluable. She navigated every obstacle with confidence and helped me understand my options at each stage, making a difficult situation far more manageable. Most importantly, I always felt supported and listened to. Gemma combined professionalism with genuine empathy, and I never doubted her commitment to my case. Thanks to her hard work, dedication and strategic advice, we achieved an excellent result. I am incredibly grateful for everything Gemma did for me and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a solicitor who is knowledgeable, approachable and truly invested in her clients.
Thank you for sharing such a thoughtful review of your experience with Gemma. We understand how unsettling it can be when a solicitor changes part way through an ongoing matter, particularly when you have already built a strong relationship and trust with the person handling your case. What’s especially lovely to hear is how quickly Gemma was able to put those concerns to rest and earn your confidence. Taking over a case is never simply about understanding the legal file; it’s about understanding the person behind it, their worries, priorities and hopes for the future. We’re delighted that Gemma was able to provide that continuity of support while also helping you navigate the challenges that arose along the way. Your comments about feeling listened to, reassured and genuinely cared for will mean a great deal to Gemma. Achieving a positive outcome is always important, but knowing that a client felt supported and empowered throughout the journey is equally rewarding. Thank you again for your trust and recommendation. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with Gemma. Best Wishes Stowe Family Law
My legal matter was handed over to Gemma Thew at a critical point in the process. Gemma made herself fully aware of the issues I faced both legally and emotionally before contacting me and was able to quickly bring issues to a close. Her supportive approach and understanding of my personal issues and needs linked to my legal matter was very refreshing and constructive. I would like therefore to put on record my sincere thanks to Gemma Thew for her quick and timely response to emails, for picking up the phone, listening, and talking to me and providing well considered answers and proposals to my questions and comments. Her empathy and approach have been a major help during a difficult time. I highly recommend Gemma both from a legal and, more importantly, interpersonal point of view. I hope that Gemma will be able to continue to support me in the final months of my legal issues. Tim

Thank you, Tim, for such genuine and thoughtful feedback about Gemma. We’re incredibly pleased to hear how much of a positive impact her support and guidance has had during such an important and difficult stage of your legal matter. Taking over a case at a critical point requires not only strong legal understanding, but also the ability to quickly build trust and fully appreciate the wider personal circumstances involved. It’s wonderful to hear that Gemma’s approachable manner, responsiveness and willingness to really listen helped you feel supported and reassured throughout. Your comments about the care she has shown, both professionally and personally, will mean a huge amount to Gemma and the wider team. We truly appreciate your recommendation and thank you for placing your trust in Stowe Family Law. Best Wishes Stowe Family Law
I cannot recommend Emma Gibson highly enough. She has been a calm, steady, and reassuring presence throughout a very difficult legal process. Emma is professional, empathetic, and takes the time to truly understand her clients and the complexities of sensitive family situations. What stands out most is her honesty and clarity — she explains everything thoroughly, sets realistic expectations, and provides thoughtful, strategic advice without ever overpromising. Emma is also particularly strong in handling cases involving abuse and coercive control, approaching everything with sensitivity, respect, and care while remaining highly professional and effective. Her communication is excellent and always considerate. I have consistently felt supported, listened to, and confident that she is doing her very best for me. We are not done yet but the fact that I trust Emma (I find it extremely hard to trust anyone given prior experience) is testament to what a fantastic solicitor she is. I feel that she has my back and I trust her advice implicitly. An outstanding solicitor and a genuinely compassionate professional.

Thank you for such a heartfelt and detailed review. We’re incredibly pleased to hear the impact Emma has had during what sounds like a very challenging time for you. It’s especially meaningful to know you’ve felt supported, listened to, and able to place your trust in her, something we understand doesn’t come easily. Emma’s calm, honest and thoughtful approach is something we’re very proud of, particularly in sensitive and complex situations. Your comments about her communication, clarity and care truly reflect the way she works, and we’ll be sure to share your kind words with her. Thank you again for taking the time to write this.

Sophie Ballinger is incredible, I honestly cannot recommend her enough! She is such a lovely person and it’s very obvious that she genuinely cares about the child in whatever situation you’re in. She’s understanding, caring, honest, supportive, great recommendations (barristers, etc) and incredibly knowledgable. I feel very fortunate to have had Sophie with me through this very difficult time and appreciate all the time and effort she put into our case. The firm has been very professional and always able to help whenever I’ve needed it. I highly recommend, particularly after my experience with Sophie.
Hi Lydia, Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a heartfelt review. We’re delighted to hear about your experience with Sophie and the support she provided during such a difficult time. Sophie’s genuine care, knowledge, and commitment to achieving the best outcomes for children are qualities we value greatly, and your feedback truly reflects the dedication she brings to her work. We’re also pleased to hear that you found the wider team professional and supportive whenever you needed help. Thank you for your recommendation and for placing your trust in Stowe Family Law—it means a great deal to us. We wish you all the best for the future, The Stowe Family Law Brighton team.

Truly highly recommended! * Siobhan Vegh * was an outstanding professional extremely knowledgeable and experienced. Many thanks! 🙏

I had a strategy meeting with Holly, and it was extremely informative and helpful. She explained everything clearly, and I came away with a much better understanding of my rights and the steps I need to take going forward. Holly was knowledgeable, professional, and supportive throughout the meeting. I really appreciate her guidance and would highly recommend her.

Laura was excellent with clear advice and support
As my divorce became increasingly complicated, I was introduced to Pooja Patel and Shivi Rajput. From the moment I had my initial meeting with Pooja, I knew I was in the best possible hands. Throughout my divorce journey, they provided not only exceptional legal expertise but also genuine compassion, reassurance, and unwavering support. Pooja and Shivi consistently demonstrated the highest level of professionalism while always taking the time to understand my circumstances, concerns, and desired outcomes. They never made me feel like just another client. Every conversation was handled with empathy, patience, and respect, ensuring I always felt listened to, supported, and reassured throughout the process. Their knowledge and expertise in family law are exceptional. They explained every stage of the proceedings clearly and in a way that was easy to understand, allowing me to make informed decisions with confidence. Their advice was always honest, balanced, and practical, and I truly valued their ability to manage my expectations while always working tirelessly to achieve the best possible outcome. What I appreciated most was their calm and reassuring approach. During the moments when I felt anxious, overwhelmed, or uncertain, they remained composed, approachable, and focused on finding the best way forward. Knowing I had a team I could trust implicitly made one of the most difficult chapters of my life far easier to navigate. Pooja and Shivi are not only exceptional solicitors but genuinely caring people who are deeply committed to achieving the very best outcomes for their clients. Their dedication, integrity, professionalism, and kindness have made a lasting impact on me, and I will always be grateful for the support, guidance, and encouragement they provided throughout my divorce. I cannot recommend Pooja, Shivi, and the entire team highly enough.
I would not wish family proceedings on any parent, let alone a new mother navigating the first precious weeks of postpartum recovery. From the moment I was introduced to Pooja Patel, she became a pillar of strength, reassurance, and unwavering support during one of the most difficult periods of my life. Pooja’s professionalism is exceptional, but it is her demeanour that truly sets her apart. She approaches every situation with compassion, kindness, and genuine understanding, whilst maintaining the highest standards of legal expertise. She took the time to understand not only the facts of my case, but also the emotional challenges I was facing as a new parent, ensuring I always felt heard, respected, and supported. Her insight and understanding of family law are remarkable. She has an incredible ability to quickly identify the key issues, explain complex legal matters clearly, and provide strategic, thoughtful advice that inspires confidence. Throughout the proceedings, her guidance has always been honest, measured, and realistic. She never makes promises she cannot keep, but instead provides steady, transparent advice that allows me to make informed decisions at every stage. What I am most grateful for is Pooja’s calm and composed presence. During moments when I felt overwhelmed, frightened, or unable to see a way forward, she remained a steady hand. Her ability to stay calm under pressure, offer perspective, and focus on solutions has helped me navigate circumstances that at times felt impossible. Pooja is not only an outstanding solicitor; she is someone who genuinely cares about her clients and their wellbeing. Her dedication, integrity, expertise, and compassion have made an immeasurable difference to my experience of these proceedings and to my ability to cope throughout the process. I cannot recommend Pooja highly enough. Any client would be fortunate to have her in their corner.

Some clients remember the legal outcome; others remember how they were helped through the journey. Your review speaks so powerfully about the latter, and we’re incredibly grateful that you took the time to share it. Supporting someone through family proceedings at such a significant and vulnerable stage of life requires more than legal knowledge alone. We’re delighted that Pooja’s compassion, honesty and calm approach gave you the confidence to navigate each step of the process. Knowing that she took the time to understand both your legal circumstances and your personal challenges is exactly the level of care we strive to provide. Thank you for your heartfelt recommendation. We know your words will mean a great deal to Pooja, and we wish you and your family all the very best for the future. Best Wishes Stowe Family Law

Your review is a powerful reminder that family law is about far more than legal advice alone. We’re incredibly touched to hear how much of a difference Pooja made during such a significant and emotional period of your life. Supporting a client through family proceedings is always important, but doing so while you were navigating the early weeks of parenthood required not only legal expertise, but empathy, patience and genuine understanding. We’re delighted that Pooja was able to provide the calm guidance, clear advice and reassurance you needed, helping you feel informed and supported even during the most challenging moments. Your words about her integrity, compassion and unwavering commitment will mean a tremendous amount to Pooja. Thank you for placing your trust in her and for taking the time to share such heartfelt feedback. Best Wishes Stowe Family Law
