After much hostility from my ex spouse regarding pension sharing and division of the matrimonial home I went to Martin Tollhurst for advice and representation. I was allotted a solicitor, Giles Dobson, to work on getting me a fair and equitable deal. Because of waiting for answers from my exes solicitors, court hearings and finally the pension scheme that the pension was with (10 months for them), I finally got a good settlement on both the sale of the house and pension share. Giles kept me informed at every stage and I felt very much involved rather than “done to”. Thankyou Martin Tollhurst and specifically thankyou Giles Dobson. I would certainly recommend you practice to anyone who needed legal advice and help.

I received exceptional service from my solicitor and genuinely couldn’t have asked for better support. From the very beginning, everything felt highly personalised and handled with real care and understanding. I always felt listened to and never rushed, and my views and feelings were consistently taken into consideration. Most importantly, I felt completely comfortable and safe discussing very distressing and personal situations, which made an enormous difference to me throughout the process.

It’s hard to put into words how grateful I am for everything Hannah has done for me. When I first came to her, I was emotionally drained, overwhelmed, and unsure how I’d ever get through what was ahead. I was coming out of a difficult marriage and facing a long, drawn-out legal battle over finances that stretched on for 18 painful months. From the moment Hannah took on my case, I felt a shift. She didn’t just manage the legal side with total professionalism and expertise, she truly understood what I was up against. My ex used every bullying tactic possible to wear me down, but Hannah never once lost her composure. She remained calm, steady, and in control throughout, no matter how aggressive or unreasonable things became. Her quiet strength gave me strength. She saw through the manipulation, stood firm when it mattered most, and never allowed intimidation or delay tactics to derail the process. She protected my interests fiercely, and I always felt that she had my back, not just legally, but emotionally too. This wasn’t just a legal battle, it was a fight to reclaim my life, my voice, and my future. And thanks to Hannah, I walked away with all three. If you're going through a high-conflict divorce, I can't recommend Hannah highly enough. She is not only a brilliant solicitor, she's a fierce advocate and a deeply compassionate professional. I’ll be forever grateful for her.

Grateful to Hannah and the staff at Martin Tolhurst. Started divorce proceedings as a LIP in Jan 2024, instructed Hannah at start of 2025 as needed legal counsel. Hannah talked me through each stage and never served me away from what I was asking for. Emails have been acknowledged and replied to, calls have been replied to and the constant worry as to outcome was not needed as we were successful in court. High recommend.

I recently had cause to enlist the family law expertise of Richard after the end of a long-term relationship, which saw me separating from the mother of my two children and leaving the family home. Richard's counsel was a great help during a very difficult time. I never felt rushed during our meetings or pressured to make a hasty decision whilst contemplating my options. I really appreciate the sound and honest advice I was given and would recommend this firm to anyone going through a similar experience.

I cannot recommend Nameeta Gujral (and her legal secretary Jasmine Oshinusi), family law solicitors, highly enough. From the very first consultation, they were attentive, empathetic, and fully committed to understanding my situation. They guided me through what could have been a very stressful process with genuine care and incredible professionalism. Their knowledge of family law is second to none, and they always made sure I understood each step clearly, keeping me informed and reassured throughout. Communication was prompt and transparent. Thank you for making a difficult time manageable and helping me move forward with confidence.

Great Solicitors I would highly recommend MartinTolhurst, particularly Hannah Stanford who has handled my divorce, I couldn't have survived the process without her, she was efficient, approachable, and very empathetic. She also went above and beyond, by taking on additional conveyancing work related to my divorce. Outstanding in every way. Date of experience: 21 March 2025

From first contact, i received a friendly and professional and also sympathetic service. Everything was explained clearly so i understand the process. Family law is not easy, and emotions can often cloud your judgement, relying on a good solicitior to help you stay on th right course is invaluable! Regular updates and communication was received without it being unnecessary and at all times i was given professional and honest advice. Trust with solicitor's is sometime hard, but i was told what i needed to hear, not what i wanted at times. This is incredibly important as you are paying them, so easy to be led along and just get a big bill. It was a real pleasure dealing with them, they made a difficult situation much easier to deal with and i can not thank them enough for all their help and advice.

Martin Tolhurst Solicitors have dealt with my complex issues that required their expertise and representation via barristers in court. Martin Tolhurst have been professional, supportive, honest and friendly. I have been able to build a trust and as such I have been able to face and make some difficult choices, with their full support. I had a good result and as such I have been able to move on from the problems I originally faced. I am confident that if anyone needs a solicitor and legal advice, then I would recommend Martin Tolhurst Solicitor's. I will definitely use them again, if needed. Thank you very much for your help.

I cannot recommend Georgina Vanden Berghe and the team at Martin Tolhurst highly enough. We were on a very tight timeline to get our wills completed, and despite being busy, it felt like she dropped everything to make sure our deadlines were met. Although our wills themselves were fairly straightforward, the Inheritance Tax (IHT) implications were much more complex. Over the course of two meetings and numerous emails, she took the time to meticulously collate all the necessary data and present her findings in a clear, accessible way. She broke down complex legal and tax terms effortlessly. I have never dealt with a solicitor who was so down-to-earth, open, honest, and approachable. Her assistant was also incredibly friendly and efficient, ensuring the entire process ran seamlessly. An outstanding, stress-free experience from start to finish.

Gemma and the team helped with the sale of my late Father-in-law house. They came recommended through the estate agents who were absolutely dire and complete charlatans. So it was a pleasant surprise the solicitors they recommended were stars. thank you so much for being the only decent people in this process.

Abbie Oswald is a complete professional. Not only is she an expert in her field, but she actually answers the phone! With her expert guidance (and patience!), we completed on the purchase of our new home in 8 weeks, and thanks to Abbie, it went as smoothly as is possible. I would highly recommend Abbie Oswald from Martin Tolhurst Solicitors, Ashford office.

I recently purchased an apartment and used Martin Tolhurst Solicitors and I couldn't be happier with the service. From start to finish the team were efficient, friendly and very thorough. Communication was excellent — I always knew where things were up to and any queries were answered quickly. > They made the whole conveyancing process straightforward and stress-free. Highly recommend to anyone buying in the Rochester / Medway area. Special thanks to Richard Coulter
Alex Eddy was a pleasure to deal with for the sale of our leasehold property. Very professional and supportive throughout the sale process, which was not always straightforward, so many thanks Alex.
