I have been involved in protracted complex children matters for almost 3 years which have recently come to an end thanks to the invaluable help of Sarah who has been there every step of the way. I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional support I received from Sarah and Isabel throughout my case. From the outset they demonstrated outstanding legal expertise and also a deep understanding of the complexities and sensitivities involved in my matter. Sarah took every measure to ensure I felt protected and never left me to deal with difficult moments alone. Sarah was always mindful of the nature of my relationship with my ex partner and went above and beyond to safeguard my wellbeing at every stage. No detail was overlooked and clear, strategic advice was provided at each stage which ultimately led to the best outcome for us. Sarah's unwavering commitment, professionalism and genuine empathy and care made an incredibly difficult process much more manageable. I will always be grateful for everything Sarah has done for my child and I. Thank you for never letting me give up and for fighting tirelessly for what was best for my child- I couldn't have asked for a better team to stand by me throughout this process. I highly recommend Sarah and Isabel to anyone facing issues with complex children matters.

Graham Twist assisted me through a very difficult time in private family law proceedings. He always took into consideration both my child's welfare and my own. His knowledge and advice were outstanding, and he took the time to listen, explain his views, and support me throughout the process. Graham was remarkable at every hearing and provided exceptional support throughout my case. At my final hearing, Nicola, my barrister, was equally outstanding. Together, they gave me confidence and reassurance during an incredibly challenging time. Thank you again, Graham. I am truly grateful for all your help and support.

I worked with Ian regarding an Adoption case. I am an Advocate and I was the Litigation Friend for Dad. Ian was fantastic with the person I was supporting. Ian took time to explain to Dad, in great, simplistic language, what was happening, what Dad's rights where, and how I could help, and Ian could help too. Myself and Ian had a wonderful working relationship, ensuring the best possible outcome for Dad, working in joint partnership. Ian took great steps to explain in clear and honest communication what Dad's rights were, even in what was a very difficult case. Ian was knowledgeable, professional, responsive and always had a friendly smile to greet us. I would use Ian again and would recommend him to the colleagues in my organisation.

After a bitter break up with my ex partner and having no voice about my children's welfare and wellbeing, many people told me I had zero chance of being given a fair hearing regarding custody of my children. At first I was sceptical and didn't think I should bother, but I did seek advise and approached Owen, White and Catlin, I can honestly say that the work these people do is exceeded my expectations by miles, they were supportive, advise was made clear when I didn't understand and they were thorough throughout the whole process, The children now live with me and are thriving. A first class service !

In the last few days I have had to seek legal advice for custody of my daughter who was not returned after a visit with her dad and I am extremely happy with the result that she is coming home, I could not of have done this with confidence if it was not for Mary Chilinski at the Nottingham branch. After my first phone meeting with Mary Chilinski at 1pm the day before the court hearing to getting a ruling for my daughter to be returned to myself was only 25 hours. Mary Chilinski pulled out all the stops from 1 phone meeting and some slightly unreadable notes made by myself this lady is worth her weight in gold. The entire team were extremely helpful, friendly and knowledgeable in their field and made the whole process easy to to process and understand and would recommend them in a heartbeat. Thank you once again Mary Chilinski from the bottom of my heart.

I had a consultation with Asia regarding a child related matter. She handled the matter compassionately and professionally. She explained the law articulately and provided very clear next steps. Most importantly, she was honest regarding the viability (or not!) of the options available to me. It’s on this basis that I have decided to proceed with Fullers Family Law. I highly recommend Asia for an initial consultation even if you are sure on next steps!!

From day one both Micheal and Darcie have been excellent. They will take time to talk you through the process, they also make themselves available to assist you. One example Micheal was on a weeks holiday and yet he still took time to answer are questions that we had, plus he always keeps us up-to-date with how the case was going. They are both very friendly people and I would highly recommend them to anyone needing legal advice.

Thank so so very much for everything you and your colleagues have done for me and destiny I will be forever grateful for the help and quality of your work and for the lovely people that you all are I am still on cloud 9 and destiny is over joyed she's already had Megan and Michael bring a car load of her belongings home she can't wait to be back

I would Highley recommend tanya bloom field for any case!! Professional efficient and certainly knows her job!! Best solicitor around and you won't be dissapointed! She kept me calm all the way through my battle to see my children.

I contacted Nelson’s on the recommendation of another client and was allocated Melanie Brigden. After the initial consultation I was more than confident that Melanie and of course Melanie 2 could handle this somewhat difficult case! Initially I went with a child arrangement order which both parents objected to but Melanie soon dealt with their objections and the order was given … I went for an SGO order as well and although it’s wasn’t granted didn’t feel it was anything to do with the lack of attention to detail by Melanie her hands were tied by social worker recommendation. This still didn’t stop Melanie pushing in court for the best outcome possible on the day .. I am totally happy my granddaughter gets to grow up in a safe , loving and stable future. I would recommend the two Melanie’s and employ them again in a minute .
