I found Nicola to be very helpful and very easy to talk to. She helped me navigate the various challenges in my divorce proceedings in a sympathetic and informative way. She always explained each stage of the process in layman's terms which helped greatly with my decision making. I would be happy to recommend her services to any prospective clients.

Orla OConnor

Tagged solicitor Orla OConnor

I would very strongly recommend Stowe Family Law. I have used Stowe for various legal proceedings for children’s and family finance related cases and they have been excellent. Throughout litigation, I have dealt with many members of staff at Stowe and they have all been extremely helpful and competent. I instructed Orla O’Connor for the legal proceedings. Orla is incredibly knowledgable and thorough, offering sound advice and managing my case, which was particularly challenging at times, very professionally. Orla was able to achieve my desired outcome at the final hearing and conclusion of my child order application. I cannot recommend Orla (and Stowe) highly enough !

Cannot speak highly of the team at Rothera Bray Beeston, who helped me along to get my issue resolved. Special mention goes to Jack English, who showed incredible resilience, along with a large dose of patience whilst guiding me along the way, so that the correct result was obtained. Would have no hesitation in recommending this practice for whatever legal service you require. Thank you once more!

Ashar Khan

Tagged solicitor Ashar Khan

I have consulted Ashar on a few occasions for legal advice on a family matter. I found Ashar very knowledgeable, insightful and legally tactful. He has the ability to identify a clear legal course of action whilst keeping the bigger picture in mind which is a rare combination. His experience and expertise is evident during interactions/consultation. Its clear he handles the matters with the right level of comittment, authority and care. I was confident that he is right choice to support my case. I would highly recommend him to others looking for lawyers in family domain.
