After receiving a C100 form from my daughter's father, who had chosen not to see her for two years, I initially planned to represent myself. However, the burden became overwhelming, prompting me to seek legal assistance. I contacted around eight solicitors offices, and upon speaking with Sonia, I felt an immediate connection and knew I wanted her to represent me. Her willingness to provide advice without any obligation to represent me, along with her genuine desire to help and listen to the child's needs, stood out to me. Throughout the case, Sonia offered exceptional support and helped me uncover the false allegations and inconsistencies presented by my daughter's father. During the first hearing, she successfully obtained a live-with order for me, which I hadn't even realised was an option. She communicated in clear, understandable terms, avoiding legal jargon, which made me feel informed and less stressed about the proceedings. Knowing that my case was in the hands of someone with strong family values alleviated a great deal of pressure. As a victim of domestic abuse, my daughter's safety was my top priority, and Sonia played a crucial role in securing an indirect order. Initially, I faced the possibility of my daughter being forced to spend alternate weekends with her father against her wishes, but thanks to Sonia's efforts, we prioritized what truly matters: my daughter's well-being.
