Eleanor Pollard

Tagged solicitor Eleanor Pollard

I want to say thank you for all your amazing work on my family case. Ellie was wonderful, patient and explained the law (as it currently is) in this difficult time for fathers. I considered other services, but I don't believe other solicitors would have delivered the class that you gave me. I am so grateful. The end result, I walked away from the final hearing with everything I hoped for in terms of access to my child and rightful parentage. I will always be thankful for how Ellie navigated the family legal system. For any fathers that are struggling with what undoubtedly feels like the biggest struggle of their life, Ellie told me with her approach that she will have the mother feeling like she has won in the final hearing, which is EXACTLY what happened. Ellie is a very astute family law solicitor ;) Love you always Ellie

Katrina Whyard

Tagged solicitor Katrina Whyard

Katrina was (and is) fantastic. She came highly recommended from my mortgage broker – I can see why, now – and did wonders. I had quite a tight deadline for a divorce-mandated transfer of property and remortgage, for quite a complex little right-to-manage flat in London, and she was thorough, persistent and highly communicative throughout. She pulled out all the stops and couldn’t have been more helpful and collaborative. I got a much better service than I ever expected and would recommend Katrina unreservedly!
