Outstanding solicitor

Matthew Thom took my case when I was most vulnerable in my financial remedies.
He has been absolutely amazing and has helped me achieve the desired results, even tho my case was unusual and difficult. He has been not only highly professional, but also very supportive as a caring person.
I’m forever grateful for his knowledge, understanding and support.
Thank you

Divorce and beyond...

I initiated divorce proceedings from my ex-husband in 2017 and Matthew Thom was the first and only solicitor I spoke to regarding this process, which as anyone can imagine is very challenging and extremely stressful, especially with three young children involved. Matthew was kind and empathetic, but professional and clear, you never want to have to understand the legalities around divorce, but Matthew always explained realistically and clearly. I was always confident that he was advising from a place of knowledge. After lengthy process, which involved Courts and barristers, we eventually finalised the divorce just over a year later. Unfortunately since that time there were further issues, and Matthew had moved to Maddox Legal. I was confident that Maddox and Matthew would continue to uphold the same values and I was not disappointed. After another long and protracted process (the legal system is never quick) we eventually reached a final settlement. To be honest, I miss talking to Matthew and my barrister, even though I am glad I don't have to any more! I genuinely think they are worth every penny they get paid, they go above and beyond and the communication is always so quick and accurate. It has been a pleasure to know Matthew and I would recommend him and Maddox Legal in a heartbeat. Thank you so much!

Highly recommended


I had the pleasure of working with Matthew Thomm, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with his services. From the very beginning, Matthew demonstrated a high level of professionalism and efficiency. He was always prompt in his responses, which was incredibly reassuring throughout my case.

Matthew’s support was unwavering, and he consistently provided clear and helpful guidance. His patience was remarkable, especially during moments when I needed extra clarification or support. I felt genuinely cared for and confident with Matthew handling my case.

I highly recommend Matthew Thom at Maddox Legal to anyone seeking a dedicated and proficient solicitor. His expertise and commitment truly set him apart.

I would recommend Mathew Thom of Maddox legal without hesitation.

As the holder of a judgement obtained before a French Tribunal de Haute against 2 English citizens, I was faced with the problem that after Brexit a French judgement would no longer be directly valid in England, where the defendants had moved during the proceedings.
On the recommendation of my French lawyer, I used the services of Maddox to sue for the validity of the French judgement in England before the High Court. I was advised competently and quickly and the case was successfully concluded before the High Court to my great satisfaction.
I can fully recommend the law firm.

This is a fair and accurate statement from my own experience and feelings. This is not meant to guide any readers or damage this company in anyway whatsoever.

Use this firm if you want a standard paperwork filing service no complaints there.
Access and response from Partner or assistant(s) quick.
However they do not offer anything special, or really want to find the best deal, perhaps a lack of knowledge or other firms just outsmart them. There is pressure to go for the most expensive option, I personally felt this was too invasive; at this point they seem to have lost interest and became paper filers.

Inferior service: they wanted their fees, but there was no outcome. It was a very prolonged process. And there was no follow-up at all.

I am very grateful to Warren Mitchell for his unwavering support throughout my case.He showed exceptional commitment from the start to finish.He prepared a thoroughly clever strategy that ultimately led to a favourable outcome.He demonstrated empathy and a deep understanding of my situation yet stood firm with his expert advice and excellent knowledge of the legal matters.
He worked with determination and put my mind at ease throughout the process. At no point did he delay things for a monetary gain.I am so happy how things went on my favour and loving this peace at last.
I highly recommend him and his law firm and wish him the very best in the future.

Getting divorced with children in the middle of it can be one, if not the most stressful events in someone's life, yet this experience was made not only tolerable but mostly survivable only because I had Warren as my divorce and family solicitor. He listened intently, empathised, guided me throughout the entire process and I felt so supported the entire time even throughout the most terrifying moments, no matter what time or day it was. He didn't hesitate to provide me with not only the precise guidance but also reassurance, strength to the point that empowered me to go through what I needed in this dreadful legal process and stand up for myself. He not only guided me but also showed me the way on how to deal with the entire situation, even on a personal level, sometimes I felt he was my therapist too! I learnt so much from him that I cannot forget anything he has said that had such an impact in my life, I now use his guidance as a very important tool that helps me navigate life nowadays with my ex-husband. Warren personally took care of my case with such dedication really looking out for my best interests and that of my children and then later on when he involved Sabina, all of these trascened from her too but Warren still oversaw my case. Sabina, also was a great dedicated and hard working solicitor who pulled it all through in the end. So thank you both and Ella McCabe as well for being the most experienced, dedicated, caring and ethical legal support that I could ever have had, I couldn't recommend them enough.
