Emily Spencer

Tagged solicitor Emily Spencer

Emily was great. She explained the will writing process and the Power of Attorney in a clear and easily understandable way. She kept us appraised of progress at each stage and arranged meetings at suitable times. She was very personable and made us feel at ease during the process. Emily outlined how things would progress and everything followed the outline. We were very happy with both her and Winston's and would be happy to use them again or recommend them to friends.

Alexandra Goldrein

Tagged solicitor Alexandra Goldrein

I came to Slater Heelies after a disaster with previous solicitor. Alex from the onset was friendly, reassuring, professional but firm. Many times she had to challenge my perspectives and encouraged strength. Alex had an objective approach and was always quick and prompt in replying to emails and calls. Her in depth knowledge was reassuring and was able to relay in a succinct manner that was easy to digest. I felt with Alex’s friendly manner that she always had my best interests at the heart and was extremely reassuring during the whole process which was really appreciated. I would have no hesitation in using her again… but at the same time hope that there would never be a need. Thank you

Elizabeth HughesKate Anderson

Tagged solicitors Elizabeth Hughes and Kate Anderson

Liz Hughes has been our solicitor for the past several months as she helps guide us through a very difficult time for one of my daughters. I find Liz to be extremely thorough and educational in her responses to any and all of our questions while being kind and sensitive to the difficult circumstances that my daughter and granddaughter are going through. Liz does a great job crafting our responses to questions/issues from the other parties legal team who we are dealing with in this situation. The case she is handling for our family is very complex to include dealing with some international issues/law and she is really good at consulting with others if the concerns are in anyway outside of her expertise. I appreciate that Liz has been very forthcoming and honest with us regarding this case while also being sensitive to the tough circumstances my daughter and granddaughter our facing during this time while all of their immediate family is in the United States. I feel that we are receiving excellent guidance and legal counsel with Liz in charge of our case. Also, due to the complexity of my daughter's situation, Liz has been working closely with Kate Anderson on this case from the very beginning. Kate also provides excellent legal advice/counsel while also ensuring my daughter is treated as a person, first and foremost. I am extremely thankful and grateful for the help these two professionals continue to provide my family.

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!

Gill Carr

Tagged solicitor Gill Carr

Gill assisted me in a extremely complex non accidental injury case. I was assisted by Gill, her paralegal Bilal Rasool and her secretary Christine Brown. The service provided by all of them was exceptional. The situation I was going through I can honestly say was the hardest thing I have had to go through in my life and the care, guidance, compassion and support provided by Gill was the sole reason I got through it. The breadth and knowledge Gill has is incredible. She was able to guide and advise me on extremely complex matters, and do so in a manner that was not only clear and concise but was easy for me to understand. She is patient and willing to take the time to explain or go over things if I was not sure. With family matters such as this one, the emotional toll was huge and Gill was acutely aware of this. She understood that when stress was high providing timely information was key and she would always ensure she answered my many questions as soon as she could, and if she was busy Bilal or Christine would always contact me back and either help when they could or let me know when Gill could get back in touch. I often had many questions and concerns that I wanted answers to, or to try and understand and every time Gill would be there to support me and answer them, no matter how small. I felt like Gill is not just a professional I was paying for, but someone who truly cared about me and my case and wanted to do all she could to try and help me get the best outcome. She was tireless in her commitment to me and my case and even though unfortunately we did not have the best outcome I can rest knowing that Gill did everything she could to assist me. Gill truly is not only an incredible solicitor who I would recommend to all but an amazing, kind, compassionate person who I am so grateful to have had by my side.

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.

Jen Law

Tagged solicitor Jen Law

We were very fortunate to have been advised and represented by Jen during a recent case. Undoubtedly without Jen the outcome would have been less positive. We were constantly informed and updated of our situation during the whole process. You could clearly see Jen was respected greatly from the other legal professionals and this provided a great deal of confidence to us as well as a calming influence that is sometimes needed during such delicate discussions and negotiations. We ultimately received the best possible outcome with our case and cannot thank Jen enough. Jen is Tenacious but at the same time a calming influence. We always felt looked after is how i would best describe our experience. Ultimately the most professional service we could have hoped for!

Andrew Foulds

Tagged solicitor Andrew Foulds

I came to Andrew after spending years in family court with another firm, trying to relocate to another country. We had been going round in circles with no progress. As a last resort, I contacted Andrew Foulds and within just a few months of him dealing with the situation, everything was finally resolved. We’re now happily living abroad. I really appreciate Andrew’s straight-talking approach and the way he gets things done.
