Would 100% recommend Fosters league services

I cannot thank Sandra Foster and her incredible team enough for the support they’ve given me during one of the most challenging periods of my life. Their dedication, compassion, and professionalism have been truly outstanding. Sandra and her team worked tirelessly on my case, going above and beyond to ensure I felt supported every step of the way. Remarkably, they carried out a significant amount of work without charging me, and they were flexible enough to let me take on certain tasks myself to help reduce costs. That level of generosity and understanding is something I will never forget. I genuinely owe them everything, and I would wholeheartedly recommend Sandra Foster and her team to anyone in need of expert, empathetic support. Thank you so much, Sandra—your kindness has made a lasting impact. Many thanks

I wouldn’t recommend using these solicitors they are not professional at all yeah they might do the job and get people divorced done . I got adviced on using these solicitors from my friend as they saw really good reviews even tho it’s don’t mean anything as my experience was very bad they don’t communicate with there paying customers and told them time after time to communicate with me as I have the right to know and they don’t and make you chase them all the time . They also lie to you as they told me at the beginning it would only cost me £700 including vat and they didn’t tell me I had to pay the courts over £500 and they even phoned me up and wanted me to pay onther 360 pound even tho i already paid 360 and plus 600 and they said this was to keep my account updated so in total I paid a thousand and I don’t have that money at all and only have part time job . They also bully there customers after they payed lots of money and then they accuse there customers on shouting at them and being rude when they were rude to you as my solicitor wouldn’t let me have my say on the phone and I have every right to be upset and angry as I didn’t get the service I should of have and being treated with respect . I’m relieved my divorce is done and over with for good . I wouldn’t use these solicitors as they are not very friendly or helpful and they definitely don’t know how to give good customer service I thought having a solicitor is all about what your paying customers want and not what the solicitors want. They definitely quicker on taking your money but not giving you good outstanding services that you should be getting instead getting told you have bad manners and a bully to there staff so this definitely says and shows it all they are definitely not professional and they are definitely not worth the money . They also lied to me saying my divorce would be done on the 24/4/26 I waited all day for my solicitors to call me or email to tell me but instead they wait till end of the day to tell me they were at home and not in office but they didn’t tell me they was off sick and waited again to tell me this on Monday and they didn’t tell me I had to put final order in as they told me when my conditional order went through they would be in contact with me when my final divorce comes through which they didn’t once again I had to chase them . These solicitors won’t take any responsibility or admit they are in the wrong they like to think they are right all the time and us customers who pay lots of money to them we are in the wrong . I am also seriously ill and waiting for surgery and have been proper stressed and suffer high blood pressure because they didn’t do there job . I work in retail and I always listen to my customers and give them what they want I would never be so rude to them and start shouting at them or ignore them shame fosters solicitors can’t look after there customers more and help them and actually listen to them and understand them more.😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡.

Thank you Katherine for your review, which we have noted. We as a firm would like to respond as follows: Katherine contacted us to seek advice in respect of divorce proceedings. She was given free legal advise and practical steps to get divorce via both telephone and Zoom, each for over 30 mins. She returned to instruct the firm to start the divorce for her, though she was given the advice that she could do it herself. Our fixed fee to act for a client in divorce proceedings is £750 plus VAT from start to finish. But we charged Katherine £600 plus VAT giving her a discount of £150 because she is on low income. So we have no idea where she got the £700 including VAT from. Regarding the court fee, we advised Katherine of how much the court fee will cost her and that this is separate from our fees. Given that she is on low income, we sent her the court fee waiver link to apply to the court so they can waive their fee. She used the link to apply but unfortunately the court rejected her application because she earns too much and was asked to pay the full court fee. She was very upset and took it on us. Eventually, she paid to get the divorce started. Katherine was kept updated by phone and emails. She was told that on 24/4/26 will be the date according to the court papers, to apply for the final order. On this date, Katherine sent a WhatsApp message questioning about the final order. She was told that we are working from home and that emails will be checked on Monday if the court has sent notification to apply for the final order. She was not happy at all regarding this information. On Monday 27 April, Katherine then sent another WhatsApp message saying this is getting 'ridiculous'. So the director called her to explain that she normally receives the notification from the court and that she was sick and was not in the office on Friday 24.4.26 to check her emails for notifications. Katherine then started shouting at the director and was so rude for absolutely no reason whatsoever. The application was made to the court and 2 days later, the final order was granted, so she is happily divorced. From the team Fosters Legal Solicitors

I contacted Fosters for some legal advice, and John was fantastic in getting back to me quickly! Whilst my very minor case couldn't be taken on, I was given a free consultation, which meant I had the tools to navigate the next steps with confidence. Thank you Fosters!

Thank you Sarah. Your review meant so much to us as it will help others to decide when they have an issue to resolve. We will continue to provide free legal advice to the general public and to those who are vulnerable and dont have the funds to pay. Thank you again and all the best. Regards From the team

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Fosters Legal Solicitors for their support and professionalism throughout my recent family court case involving my son. The team showed exceptional dedication, guidance, and expertise during what was a very challenging time for and my family. I would especially like to thank Gemma for her unwavering commitment and hard work. Her attention to detail, clear communication, and genuine care made a significant difference in the process and outcome. I truly appreciate everything she did on my behalf, she never made me feel like i was being too much and always had time to answer all my questions to help ease my mind. I highly recommend Fosters Legal Solicitors to anyone in need of reliable and hardworking solictors especially when going through a difficult time. Thank you again :)
