Had an excellent meeting there with my eldest daughter, got lots of information pointing me in the right direction. Explaining everything I needed to know and do in the future, highly recommend them saying a big thank you to Louise. Process stalled at the moment awaiting action from separated wife before I go further.

Efficient and Effective Handling of my Legal Matrimonial Issue

Nikki Lynch of Couchman Hanson solicitors was very knowledgeable, efficient and timely in sorting out my matrimonial issue; from initial contact (with free advisory phone call to understand situation) to ensure papers were drawn up, revisions made as necessary with additional information/requirements included; additional advice given as necessary with Legal information provided to help with understanding processes in Separations and Divorces; appropriate liaison with other party and signatures and papers filed with copies provided. The process was well handled and concluded in a timely manner with both parties legally in Agreement. The outcome is satisfactory and I would not hesitate to utilize the legal services of Couchman Hanson should the Agreement not be adhered to and should it become necessary to take further Legal steps. I have every confidence in these Solicitors to ensure Legal processes are implemented to provide a framework for Matrimonial Disputes and Issues and this provides peace of mind.

Share buyback

Graham advised us on a share buy back process . His professionalism and approachability guided us through what we needed to understand but also allowed us to raise queries. His very initial conversation helped us to mould our thoughts about how we wanted to progress in an enlightening rather than judgemental manner. His friendly manner meant that on top of his excellent service he was a nice person to work with. I would be very happy to recommend Graham and his team to others.

Sale of Business

We worked with Graham and his team on the sale of my business for over 6 months.
Graham was so professional and always on hand to ask for advice and guidance during what was a difficult process,
I do not know what we would have done without him and his fantastic team who looked out for us at every turn.
Do not look further than Graham and his team

Exceptional Legal Expertise and Dedication – Thank You, Graham!

We recently had the pleasure of working with Graham and his team for the sale of our business, and we cannot recommend him highly enough. From the outset, Graham demonstrated an exceptional level of dedication and commitment to our cause. His approach to the complexities of the transaction was nothing short of remarkable.



Graham's technical brilliance shone through in every aspect of the process. He navigated through intricate legal frameworks with ease, ensuring that every detail was meticulously addressed. His pragmatic approach was a breath of fresh air. He provided practical solutions to potential hurdles, always with our best interests at heart.



Perhaps what sets Graham apart is his ability to be the voice of reason during the most stressful moments. His calm and composed demeanour, coupled with his profound legal knowledge, gave us immense confidence. We felt supported and well-advised at every turn.

The result Graham delivered speaks volumes of his capabilities as a solicitor. He worked tirelessly to ensure that the sale was not only successful but also as smooth and efficient as possible. His hard work and dedication have been instrumental in the successful outcome of our business transaction.



In summary, Graham is a technically brilliant solicitor who brings pragmatism and a calming influence to the often turbulent waters of business transactions. We are profoundly grateful for his service and would unhesitatingly recommend him to anyone in need of first-class legal assistance.

Overall Rating: 5/5 Stars – Outstanding Service!

Divorce Negotiations

I worked with Griselda and then Julie to complete my divorce process from start to finish; this also included negotiations with my ex-husband's solicitor. It was a very difficult time, and I was always treated with empathy. The advice I got was pragmatic. My expectations were managed very well and Julie always was focused on trying to get the best settlement she could for my specific situation.

I would Highly recommend Couchman Hanson. I recently used Mike Brown to over see the sale of my commercial property. It turned out to be not the most strait forward process, however Mike was always incredibly helpful, attentive and insightful. Often going above and beyond to give advice where needed and to help the process on its way. Great service.

I have used Couchman Hanson twice now since moving to the Haslemere area, and have on both occasions been extremely impressed with the levels of service, quality of advice given, prompt responses to queries, and taking as much admin out of my hands as possible. In my personal capacity, I have no hesitation in recommending the firm to others.

I have worked with Head of Employment Law Emily Yeardley on domestic and international challenges, and her advice, approach, and tenacity are first class. Having spent my career advising multi-nationals for more than 25 years, I recommend Emily unreservedly as one of the most consummate and trustworthy professionals I’ve had the pleasure to encounter.
