Lauren Riley

Tagged solicitor Lauren Riley

When faced with the difficult decision to seek an enforcement order for a child arrangement order, I knew I needed a solicitor who was not only legally sharp but also deeply understanding of the sensitive nature of the situation. From the moment I instructed her, Lauren Riley proved to be exactly that and more. The process of enforcing a child arrangement order can be incredibly stressful, and Lauren handled every step with a perfect balance of legal assertiveness and genuine compassion. She listened carefully to my concerns about the breaches of the order and meticulously gathered the necessary evidence. Lauren’s guidance was invaluable, as she clearly explained the legal requirements and what to expect from the court proceedings. Her communication was excellent; she was always available to answer my questions and provided regular updates, which gave me immense peace of mind during a very anxious time. Lauren's ability to present a clear and compelling case to the court was instrumental in the positive outcome we achieved. She was a tireless advocate for my child’s best interests, and I felt completely confident in her representation. Thanks to Lauren's expertise and dedication, me and my child are getting required building blocks put in place by the court . I wholeheartedly recommend Lauren Riley to any parent who needs a solicitor to navigate the complexities of child arrangements and enforcement. She is a compassionate and formidable lawyer who truly fights for what is right."

Preeya Rampersad

Tagged solicitor Preeya Rampersad

I engaged KLR to administer my divorce proceedings, these turned out to be lengthy! I dealt solely with Preeya Rampersad throughout. Preeya gave me clear , concise, accurate advice which she always fully explained. This gave me the ability to respond to any questions with full information. She was always positive and certainly kept me on point at times when things dragged ie during Covid. All of the staff at KLR that in encountered whether by phone, email or in person were always helpful, cheerful and always professional. I made an excellent choice for my legal council.

Tagged solicitors Alec Hodgkinson and Nicholas Edward Upright

I can’t thank Nick Upright enough for all his help and support with my recent family matters. Nick is approachable, honest, and very knowledgeable. He always took the time to listen to my concerns and explain things in a way that was easy to understand, which made a difficult situation feel much more manageable. What I appreciated most was his straightforward advice. Nick’s guidance throughout the family court process was invaluable. I always felt he had my best interests at heart and that I was in very capable hands. Family matters can be stressful and emotional, but Nick remained professional, supportive, and reassuring throughout. Thanks to his expertise and dedication, everything was resolved positively. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Nick to anyone looking for a solicitor who is knowledgeable, trustworthy, and genuinely cares about his clients.

Helen Lucking

Tagged solicitor Helen Lucking

Excellent service for Divorce, conveyancing and will. I chose Napthens (Helen Lucking) to deal with my divorce because they have an office in Lytham so convenient and easy parking available. The service I received from Helen was not only professional but also her handling of my divorce was dealt with care and understanding and I felt she represented me perfectly in how she handled all the nonsense my ex flung at me. I felt completely at ease and the fees were very reasonable too. At the same time I used their conveyancing department and will department, so all in all Napthens were able to deal with my divorce, Property transfer and my Will all within one office. I wouldn’t hesitate to contact Napthens should I need a solicitor in the future.

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
