Hannah Stanford

Tagged solicitor Hannah Stanford

We had a child matter which required intervention from Courts and solicitors unfortunately, the court battle was long drawn out but Hannah and Andrew handled it with much professionalism, empathy and got our family to the goalpost we needed. Hannah and Andrew were extremely responsive when issues arose during the proceedings and were always available to answer our questions and concerns. They also engaged a great Barrister who we could not have been without.

Maya LalTim Ridyard

Tagged solicitors Maya Lal and Tim Ridyard

If you are looking for legal representation for yourself or possibly a son or daughter, especially if its a delicate matter, then simply, look no further, we were left in a very unfortunate position where for some unknown reason, at the last minute the legal firm we had, decided to stop representing my son, Ashtons Legal stepped in, and all i can say is they were unbelievable in every way, we were 100 percent confident that they were really fighting our sons corner, yes they were exceptionally professional but more than that, they really showed compassion and understanding for what we were going through and yes the result they achieved in court was far better than we ever expected. It is so difficult picking the right legal representation, our worry was always have we picked the right one, simple answer yes we did we chose Ashtons.

Ardra Pillai

Tagged solicitor Ardra Pillai

I cannot recommend Ardra highly enough. She has been exceptional throughout my family law case and provided an outstanding level of service from start to finish. Ardra handled my case with great professionalism, care and attention to detail. She demonstrated an excellent understanding of the legal issues involved and was always clear, thorough and reassuring in her advice. What stood out most to me was the way she handled me as a client. She listened carefully, understood what was important to me and always treated my concerns with respect and compassion. This was a very important and emotional matter for me, particularly as it involved spending time with my daughter following the court proceedings with her mother. Ardra worked diligently on my behalf and helped me achieve an outcome that allowed me to have that precious time with my daughter. Her professionalism, knowledge, dedication and genuine commitment to her clients are exceptional. I always felt that my case was in capable hands, and her support made a very difficult process much easier to navigate. Thank you, Ardra, for everything you have done for me. I am extremely grateful for your hard work and would wholeheartedly recommend you to anyone looking for an excellent solicitor who truly cares about her clients.

Melissa Billington

Tagged solicitor Melissa Billington

I am very happy with the service provided from this firm, also the barrister that was assigned to assist during the court hearings. The Solicitors were easily contactable and always replied quickly and were informative. They took away mass amounts of stress during this difficult time and I feel going forward there is a clear plan for my child to spend time with her father. Thankyou very much.

Sarah-Jane Varley

Tagged solicitor Sarah-Jane Varley

Sarah-Jane Varley I required the services of a solicitor due to allegations made by a parent/guardian. I contacted a numbers of solicitors before deciding to appoint Sarah-Jane Varley. Sarah-Jane Varley demonstrated patience, understanding and excellent listening skills as the context of the case was outlined. Once the detailed has been gathered I found Sarah-Jane Varley utilised excellent verbal and written communication skills which helped reduced the stress of situation. As the case progressed I found Sarah-Jane Varley proved to be hardworking and persevering bringing the case to a successful conclusion. I would therefore have no hesitation in recommending Sarah-Jane Varley as your solicitor. Paul
