Highly recommend

I cannot recommend Wendy highly enough, she sorted out the financial order for my divorce. As we all know , discussing money in an already emotive situation can make things volatile and cause confrontation but Wendy handled all of this impeccably. I found this whole process incredibly difficult and she was brilliant throughout. She explained all of the processes and options to me in a way that was clear and understandable. She was honestly brilliant and I am so grateful to her for sorting it all out for me.

Faultless guidance and support

Wendy was an absolute legend. Excellent, expert advice, genuine and honest appraisal of the overall situation and the many specific twists and turns among the way. Always responsive to my views but also always willing to share thoughts and guidance even where the law itself wasn’t particularly clear. It has been a rocky road and unfortunately we did end up in court, but only after we’d exhausted efforts to avoid that outcome. A fair result, which given where the other side started, is by itself a miracle. I cannot thank Wendy enough for being a rock in the middle of the perfect storm.

And finally, efforts to keep costs down in a limited assets case but where it became essential for mine and my children’s financial security into the future to put up a fight, were very welcome.

Outstanding Lawyer !

Words cannot explain how far above and beyond Amelia went for me. Her help, advice and professional skills over what has been a very difficult time for me is second to none.
Amelia was approachable, she was always there for me with her honest, efficient and sensible advice. The service was more than first class yet great value for money.
I cannot recommend Amelia enough, she went far beyond her job role for me and I will be forever grateful to her.

Unrivalled care, professionalism and support.

Amelia is one of the most genuine, caring and hard-working professionals I have ever worked with. She became an essential life-line for my wife and I when dealing with our case. She worked tirelessly, so much so that it often felt like we were her only client. She is professional, caring, sensitive and goes over and above for her clients. Her work is meticulous, thorough and dependable. No amount of words or adjectives can describe just how amazing she has been and how supported she made us feel. There are no amount of stars which could reflect the work she does - five stars don’t even come close!

Excellent service - professional and empathetic

I really enjoyed working with Sharon, she is very personable, knowledgeable, professional and takes the time to explain options and clauses in layman terms. She was sensitive to the topic, my wishes and timing. Sharon went out of her way to make the whole process as painless as possible. I would definitely recommend Sharon to friends and family needing family legal advice.

Financial & Childcare Consent Order

Amelia was exceptional throughout my case.
Amelia is extremely knowledgeable, highly attentive to detail and provides an extremely personable service. This is really what I needed when going through a such an emotive period. Amelia was sensitive to this fact and managed to reduce stress by her professionalism and ability to distill complex matters so that I could remain engaged and process parts of my case at pace my side.
I would without hesitation recommend Amelia to anyone needing a family lawyer.
Amelia was very reassuring and I had made several former comparisons having worked with other family lawyers so for this I am extremely grateful for all the support Amelia has provided throughout my case.
Many thanks Amelia!
Kind regards,
Dan Perry

Superb service

Sharon Blackstone offers a highly professional service, provided in both an empathetic and timely manner. She was thorough, persistent, fair and transparent in fighting my fairly complex divorce settlement, saving my sanity and establishing a fair solution for which I will always be grateful.
Sharon was recommended by a work colleague who likened her to ‘a dog with a ’ and I would certainly recommend her to anyone requiring a solicitor in family law.

Words can’t describe how grateful I am to Amelia Bohills for her support during my financial separation. I was at the point of giving up when she got introduced to me but her empathy and compassion saw me through the pain of divorce,

What can I say about this amazing angel? Amelia professionalism is top notch, extremely knowledgeable and very thorough when dealing with the other side. With this, I’m able to get what I deserve.

Using Blackstone Family Law services on both full time and on ad hoc basis, I can tell you that they will meet individual needs according to their budget and still be satisfy with your outcome. For this I’m so grateful.

I will keep recommending Amelia to people and I look forward to hear more of her future progress. Thank you Amelia.

I can’t speak highly enough of Amelia Bohills. Incredibly professional and diligent. Anything related to Child Arrangements isn’t exactly a pleasant experience, but Amelia was with me and supported me every step of the way to get the result I wanted. I can honestly say that without Amelia’s hard work, I would not have got this result. If you find yourself in the unfortunate position where you need similar legal assistance, I urge you to speak to Amelia. I’m very grateful for you hard work Amelia!

There is only one way to describe the service and support that was provided to me by Amelia Bohills in negotiating my financial settlement following my divorce and that is exceptional.

Amelia's legal knowledge, tenacity and professionalism, together with humour in the lowest of times, was both evident and abundant throughout the legal roller coaster of the negotiation. Both robust and empathetic, Amelia was able to relieve the stress and emotional burden from my shoulders leading to a fair and equitable settlement, which I otherwise would not have achieved.

I cannot recommend Amelia highly enough to represent you if you are faced with the trauma and challenges of a family breakdown that necessitate legal advice and intervention.
I will be forever thankful.
