Bethan Tapper

Tagged solicitor Bethan Tapper

What can I say? Not all superheroes wear capes, and Bethan is a shining example of this truth. From the moment I called her and we ‘opened the book and placed it on the shelf’ to the call I made and said… ‘that book, it’s time to take it off the shelf and open it’ to the moment we finished (hopefully) the last page and placed it back on the shelf! we hope we don’t need to speak again. However, should I ever need to revisit that book, it’s without a doubt Bethan will be the one I want by my side! Throughout this experience, Bethan was nothing short of extraordinary. For anyone searching for unwavering support, she is the one to have in your corner. I cannot thank her enough for her calming presence, her ability to listen, and, most importantly, her steadfast focus on our ultimate goal—my daughter’s well-being. This incredible woman earned my trust, not just with my life but with my daughter’s too, which was paramount. Diolch! Thank you!

Talia Mitchell

Talia was my solicitor helping me to respond to a series of false allegations, and to get custody of my children. She was extremely professional throughout - offering me calm and clear guidance on all aspects of my case and keeping me updated on progress and next steps. Very happy with the final outcome, and how Talia got me to that point

Kate BanerjeeLisa Stephenson

Tagged solicitors Kate Banerjee and Lisa Stephenson

I can’t believe I am finally at the end, Kate and Lisa supported me for over two years throughout the most traumatic experience of my life. I ended up in a situation with my children that I never imagined possible but I thank Kate and Lisa for their continued support, professionalism and guidance in navigating this process which at times I felt was completely overwhelming. They supported me through many tearful conversations. I hope to never need the services of Kate and Lisa again but I am very grateful for them being there when me and my children needed it. Thank you.

Imogen Peddle

Tagged solicitor Imogen Peddle

From the first moment I contacted them to the end of my child custody case they have been amazing. Imogen has supported me all the way through and I would never have got through this without her. I came from a domestically abusive relationship and she has been kind, gentle and firm with me all the way through making sure we get everything right for the process whilst supporting me. I could not recommend them enough. Anna was also incredible when Imogen was on leave. Highly recommend.

Ryan Revell

Tagged solicitor Ryan Revell

I needed last minute advice before a court hearing and Ryan Revell was prompt on seeing to give me the advice I much needed for court, which put my mind at rest for the court hearing, Made clear advice with a smile. Radiator also made me very comfortable on arrival and through my telephone conversations.
