Charlotte Newman is exceptional

As an experienced lawyer, I took considerable time and care in finding the most talented family lawyer possible to represent me. Charlotte Newman was recommended to me by a very senior family lawyer.
Charlotte is technically excellent, prompt and tactical and is able to deal with both finances and children as well as having a right to audience in court. She takes it as a matter of personal pride to deliver the best possible legal advice and service and is also a pleasure to deal with. She actually cares about her clients.
Charlotte is exceptional and I highly recommend her.

Helpful and supportive

Divorce is a scary prospect after 50 years. The Stowe team gave Mum the confidence and reassurance to navigate the process whilst being caring and patient with any concern along the way. Advice was straight forward and realistic which lead to the best outcome possible. Thank you Stowes.

Fantastic

I was guided through every step of the process and always felt valued, listened to and like I mattered. I was very emotional at times and my solicitor helped to reassure me and calm me down. She put together an amazing team who represented me well I court to get the best possible outcome. My solicitor was Juliet Walker who isn't named here.

Professional expertise delivered in a supportive way

This review is for a different branch.

I received excellent legal support throughout my divorce and financial settlement. Multiple lawyers looked after my case and they were all good. The only reason for one less star is the cost, but in the end the overall cost came out ok. When I asked for a less expensive solicitor to work on my case there was no issue in a more junior member of staff being appointed, all of whom were very good.
Given how stressful a divorce is, the staff at Stowe ensured they gave calm, straightforward advice, and were responsive and professional throughout.

Overall experience was good. Costs are relatively high but reflect the reputation of the firm. I was glad that they sent me documents to review prior to submission as some corrections were sometimes required.

Incredible Support Through a Complex Case – Ciara Pugh

This review is for a different branch.

I cannot thank Ciara Pugh at Stowe Family Law, and her team and colleagues Martha, Cassie, and Figen, enough for the outstanding support and guidance I’ve received throughout my case.

My case involved a sensitive relocation application and multiple legal disputes within family court, which required not only strong legal expertise but also clarity, strategy, and emotional support. From the very beginning, Ciara’s expertise, strategic insight, and deep understanding of family law consistently put me steps ahead. Through every stage, from paperwork to court hearings, Ciara showed exceptional professionalism and unwavering dedication. She ensured I was never left in the dark, always taking the time to explain each step clearly and with empathy.

What truly sets Ciara apart is her rare ability to combine razor-sharp legal skill with genuine compassion, she made an otherwise daunting process feel manageable and, at times, even empowering. Her leadership and proactive approach ensured I was supported from every angle, and she even helped me build a wider network of exceptional professionals to support my case when needed.

Ciara and her team didn’t just do their jobs; they went above and beyond. Communication was seamless, the support was constant, and the outcome has been better than I could have imagined.

To Ciara and everyone who has supported me at Stowe, thank you. Your skill, commitment, and care have made all the difference. I truly couldn’t have done it without you.

I contacted Rachel Joyce going on the positive reviews I read online and I am so glad I did. Whilst I was going through a really horrible separation which involved family finances and children’s matters which was ongoing for over a year Rachel not only gave me legal advice she was very supportive and compassionate whilst still being professional. Rachel also kept my costs to a minimum throughout my separation. Thank you so much Rachel I couldn’t have achieved what I did without you. I definitely recommend your services.

A representative from Stowe Family Law LLP responded to this review on 18 October, 2021:

Hi Philippa, thank you for taking the time to leave a positive review, we really appreciate your wonderful feedback. Wishing you all the best for the future, kindest regards on behalf of the Stowe Family Law Beverley team.
