Thank you Sonia

I would just like to provide a heartfelt thank you to Sonia for her absolutely top notch work on what proved to be a very complex family court case. After 20 months in proceedings they have today concluded in the best outcome possible for my family. When Sonia took over my case I was immediately reassured by her prompt, responsive communication and her care and attention to detail. Feeling heard and validated was very important to me and it felt like there was no question too silly to ask and She was able to provide reassurance in the lead up to final hearing. Sonia handled communication which became challenging with complete professionalism while also creating a firm boundary. I received clear advice and felt like I could ask for explanations of decisions that I struggled to take on board on hearing days. Her knowledge of my case, together with the work put in to prepare for the final hearing meant I walked out of a difficult day knowing the children are safe and we can start to rebuild our lives. I cannot thank you enough.

Family Court Experience

I had a great experience with these solicitors during a very difficult time for myself during family court. The communication was exceptional and everything was explained in great detail. I feel they went above and beyond to make sure they gave me the best opportunity to be successful in my case. They exceeded my expectations and I was to give special praise to Sonia Racker who was so determined and driven and gave me motivation when I felt low, I would definitely recommend this company.

I cannot thank Davinia Martin at Cartwright King Solicitors enough for everything she has done for me throughout my family court journey. This was one of the most emotional and important battles of my life, The whole process was incredibly daunting and stressful, but having Davinia by my side made such a difference. I am so grateful for her support, guidance, professionalism and dedication throughout the process. When something means so much to you, you need someone who understands the importance of what you are fighting for, and I am truly thankful to have had Davinia representing me. Family court was scary, but having someone in your corner to guide you through such a difficult and emotional time is invaluable. I will always be grateful for the help and support I received in achieving such an important outcome. Thank you, Davinia, for everything you have done for me. This means more than words can explain, and I will never forget the support you gave me during such a significant chapter of my life. I would wholeheartedly recommend Davinia Martin and Cartwright King to anyone needing support with family law. ❤️

With Judy Johnson’s help, we achieved an outcome that had seemed almost impossible. Judy was highly recommended to us as a children’s lawyer. She supported us in caring for a deeply troubled teenager. When we found ourselves in conflict with a local authority and social workers whom we believed had failed both the young person and us. Those concerns ultimately came before the family courts. In our experience, good hearted carers of foster placements, special guardian arrangements, and similar settings can be unfairly discredited when local authorities seek to avoid responsibility and shift blame. Judy Johnson is an outstanding lawyer who stood by us throughout six gruelling months in which we felt relentlessly vilified. We trusted her judgment at every stage, even as two elderly people facing circumstances we could scarcely have imagined. Judy guided us through every accusation and challenge, including what we regarded as malicious falsehoods intended to damage our reputation. We thought we had already experienced everything life could throw at us, but we were wrong. With Judy’s support, we withstood the local authorities attempt to avoid responsibility for what we believe was gross neglect. We wish more lawyers like Judy were available to help grandparents like us, who feel failed by the judicial system and confronted by local authorities whose conduct, in our experience, knows no bounds. In our experience, departments close ranks—-from social workers—-school staff—while serious complaints about dishonesty and misconduct go unaddressed. Judy Johnson, we can never thank you enough for helping us escape the appalling abuse we endured and for securing yesterday’s decisive victory.

I found Shumyla Sheikh during one of the hardest times of my life, fighting in court for my child. Having her by my side has meant so much to me. She works until late and somehow is there again early in the morning. I honestly don’t know how she does it. :) She keeps me updated, remembers the details and always makes time to give me advice when I go a little crazy But what I appreciate most is how human she is. I try to be strong, but I’m not strong all the time. Sometimes I cry, sometimes I feel lost, and she listens with patience and kindness. At such a difficult time, that means more than people realise. I would choose her and her team again without hesitation. Baris Ulusoy is also an incredible lawyer, and I’m so grateful to have them both beside me, I had the pleasure to meet him in person and we exchanged a good energy. He’s an incredible lawyer, with a brilliant career. Thank you, dear Shumyla and dear Baris , for your hard work, your care and for being there when I’ve needed you most. I recommend you with all my heart.

I would highly recommend Zara for anyone looking for a supportive and professional family court solicitor. From the very beginning, Zara was kind, understanding and approachable, which made a very difficult and stressful situation feel much more manageable. She always took the time to listen to me, explain everything clearly and make sure I understood what was happening at each stage. I felt that she genuinely cared about my situation and always had my best interests at heart. Zara was professional, reassuring and extremely knowledgeable throughout the whole process. I’m incredibly grateful for all of her hard work, support and guidance during what was a very challenging time for me. Thank you so much, Zara, for everything you did for me and my son. I truly appreciate it and would highly recommend you to anyone needing a family court solicitor.

I instructed Cartwright King in relation to a compliance issue and Wesley was dealing with the matter. At all times he kept me informed and due to vast experience on knowledge made the journey easy. Wesley got the decision I needed and is worth instructing an experienced solicitor. I would highly recommend Welsey and I have already referred to other friends and they reiterated the above. Once again thank you so much for your help and support.
