Top 10 of 4,159 law firms for Contested Divorces, Family Law

I had already instructed another law firm to handle my case - it was hard work and the solicitor was average to say the least so I searched the internet specifically looking for solicitors who could handle tricky personalities in divorce and I was fortunate to find Laura Mounsey and HFL. After I’d had an initial meeting with Laura, i knew I could put my complete trust and faith in Laura and HFL. I divorced my existing solicitor straightaway, and had my file sent over to HFL the same day. If you are looking for a true professional who’ll give you the very best advice, who’ll work tirelessly and efficiently to give you the best service and show compassion and genuine empathy for your situation then I cannot recommend Laura highly enough…and I don’t make a habit of writing reviews or making recommendations. I’m sure if I hadn’t changed course with solicitors in a timely manner my divorce outcome and situation wouldn’t be as it is now. Laura achieved the very best outcome possible - and it is down to her relentless determination and hard work.

After being let down by several solicitors, in an extremely adversarial and lengthy family court case, Shak was recommended to me. He helped me understand how the family court system works and how my previous approach was damaging my case. Over a year on, with Shak's expert guidance and support, my situation has changed for the better. Shak is extremely knowledgeable and was always supportive. I felt I could always call on his expertise if I had any concerns. My child and I can now look forward to the future, but this would not have been possible without Shak and the team at Penn Chambers.

After my initial telephone consultation with Rachel, I knew I was going to use RJS Family Law for my financial proceedings. She was the only solicitor that I felt really cared about what the client wanted and would fight for it. I instructed Rachel for my FDR in January 2025. She prepared my position statement and created the court bundle. She took my instructions throughout by asking how involved I wanted her to be in the process in order to keep costs to a minimum. I gathered all the evidence from my ex-husband and then provided it to Rachel so she could create the bundle. She advised me on my position and also listened to what I wanted to achieve and why. At the FDR, it was clear that she understood the facts of my case as she was able to defend points raised by my ex-husband. I was able to reach a positive settlement at the FDR which would not have been possible without Rachel’s help. She was very approachable and we had a lovely conversation whilst waiting to be called in. Although her hourly rate may be high, her communication is clear and concise so you’re not wasting money on unnecessarily long communication. In the end, I didn’t end up paying as much as I had anticipated. The service I received was worth every penny. I would recommend RJS Family Law to anyone needing assistance with family of child matters. They care about their clients and want the best for them.
