I highly recommend Sebastian Hale-Smith and Hart Reade. Sebastian moved quickly, gave me excellent advice and explained my options simply. A seamless experience, highly recommend if you need a down to earth solicitor you can rely on.

Greg Saunders acted for me on a very acrimonious divorce
The whole process has taken exactly 3 years including family court proceedings.
I have found his advice to be invaluable, accurate in every detail, and thoroughly professional
I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone finding themselves involved in divorce proceedings.

Alexandra and the team supported me though a very challenging divorce and supported me every step of the way. They were incredibly professional, knowledgeable and I highly recommend their service.

I tried to avail myself of the free 30 min consultation. The receptionist was very helpful. Three times she tried to get someone to call me but no-one called so I gave up. On this basis I would not be inclined to use their services.

Divorce is never easy but when you are faced with a solicitor who is unable or unwilling to set their client on a reasonable outcome you have no choice but to call in the experts. IMHO the whole system needs a massive shake up to avoid hefty legal bills and encourage manageable and affordable outcomes. Alex and her team only put forward such proposals to the other side and it was notable that after years of wrangling the outcome of the Financial Dispute Resolution was almost to a pound in line with what she had recommend we offer. This says it all really. If you want a lawyer to punish your ex, or to set you on a course of unrealistic expectations then look elsewhere. if you want your life back, speak to Alex and Nicola.
