I cannot recommend Melissa Billington highly enough

From the very beginning, Mel was professional, knowledgeable and completely dedicated to my case. She took the time to explain every stage of the proceedings in a way I could understand, always kept me informed, and made sure I felt supported during one of the most difficult periods of my life. Family court is incredibly stressful, but Mel remained calm, reassuring and thoroughly prepared throughout. Her attention to detail, honesty and commitment gave me confidence when I needed it most. She genuinely cared about achieving the right outcome for my family rather than simply treating it as another case. I would also like to thank Carys, who supported Mel throughout my case. She attended the final two days of the hearing with me, and her kindness, reassurance and professionalism made a real difference during such an emotional time. Knowing I had such a supportive legal team beside me helped more than words can say. Thanks to Mel’s hard work, guidance and expertise, my children were able to return home. I will always be grateful to both Mel and Carys for everything they did for my family. If you are looking for a family solicitor who is compassionate, approachable, highly skilled and will fight tirelessly for you, I would recommend Melissa and her team without hesitation.

Used their wills service, can’t comment on other services. Lack of compassion and communication, wasting several hours of family time during a difficult period.

These solicitors are the most disgraceful, unprofessional and incompetent people I’ve ever had to deal with in my life! The lack of communication and the disgusting attitudes from them on a constant basis will genuinely aggravate you more than your current situation! I’m being dead serious when I say this ! AVOID THESE PEOPLE AT ALL COSTS ! They do not fight your corner, they do not communicate with people that are involved including yourself or officers (if they are involved) and when you reach out to retrieve information about your case you get ignored for no reason or a nasty attitude back ! Now idea how they’re still in business and they’ve made my mental health much worse than it needed to be !

Had an absolutely fantastic experience thanks to Zoe Harryman, Claire Holding and Victoria Pearson who handled the purchase of our new property and the sale of our old house. Zoe was a fantastic communicator, responding to us efficiently and effectively. She really came through for us when the solicitors below in the chain were diabolical. Would highly recommend and will be using Russell and Russell again! Thank you so much
