Divorce

I don't intend to write too much in here, as anyone who has gone through a painful and bitter divorce could write a book on it....
However with regards to the professional service I received from Maguire solicitors it was second to none in every aspect of the divorce. On a personal level they understood the human aspects of a divorce and how mentally challenging that can be for an individual. I found that extremely helpful as I am sure others have and will in the future.

Caring knowledgeable and attentive

I have been working with Denise and Karima to reach a financial resolution with my ex husband.
My situation was far from straight forward but this did not phase the team at Maguire. I have been supported every step of the way and offered sensible advice and direction to enable me to make key decisions throughout this process that are right for my family.
I am relieved that this chapter of my life has now come to a close and that the impact on myself and family has been minimal thanks to Denise and Karima’s support.

Thank you x

Professional & Insightful

My experience with Olivia at Maguire Family Law Altrincham was notably positive during a time that was personally challenging. Her professionalism and deep understanding of legal matters were evident throughout the process of my divorce and financial arrangements.

Olivia's clear and consistent communication was completely reliable. She made complex legal concepts accessible and understandable, enabling me to make well-informed decisions. Her guidance was a blend of professional acumen and insightful perspectives.

The support staff at Maguire Family Law also deserve recognition. They ensured seamless coordination and were particularly helpful during Olivia's absence, maintaining the high standard of service.

Although divorce is a difficult journey, Olivia's expert handling of my case made the process as smooth as it could possibly be. Her professionalism, coupled with her ability to present different perspectives, was a significant source of comfort and clarity.

I am sincerely grateful for Olivia's support and highly recommend her and the Maguire Family Law Altrincham team to anyone in need of skilled and thoughtful legal assistance.

The best team you'd ever need on your side!

My case was handled amazingly by Olivia Barry and Helen Royle. I found their knowledge, assistance and care second to none. Their attention to detail and quick response left me feeling safe and in good hands.
Thank you both, and special thanks to Katie who assists this great team.

Abi is the most approachable solicitor I have ever come across. She has helped me so much through an extremely stressful time and has gone above and beyond her duties. It really felt like Abi cared about my situation which helped me feel valued and supported. Would recommend without hesitation

Henry was an amiable and professional solicitor that helped me get a fair settlement in my recent matter. He was flexible throughout the process and took time to explain things simply and clearly. Would recommend Maguire and Henry specifically.
