I was recommended Sydney Mitchell by a family friend and they have been exceptional. Claire has been very professional and supportive throughout the whole proceedings. She has made herself available whenever I have needed her, honestly dont think I would have managed these proceeding without her and can't thank her enough. Claire and her team achieved great results for me in my case

Juber Ahmed

Tagged solicitor Juber Ahmed

I am extremely happy with Juber Ahamed's work. He worked really my child's mother case and showed great dedication and professionalism. He was always clear and supportive. He never made me feel bad about my mistakes. He went the extra mile to ensure the best outcome. Juber Ahmed put so much effort in preparing over 400 pages of bundle to the court. He explain everything so well in his documents that I did not have to answer so many questions. I truly appreciate his effort and highly recommend him to anyone in need of the best understanding solicitor.

Carole Hack

Tagged solicitor Carole Hack

The service I have received has at all times been professional, informative and extremely helpful. Carole has been such an incredible support throughout an extremely challenging time and I would not have got through the ordeal of family courts, without her knowledge, support and willingness to help. Along with her assistant Yvette, Carole has always been responsive and provided help when I have requested it. On a side note, the barrister that provided representation at hearings, Michael Hayes, was also fantastic. Professional, clear and concise so I was never left in any doubt about how proceedings were to work. I cannot thank Carole and her team enough for their service. The words thank you do not seem enough. I will be eternally grateful for the support I have received.

Hannah Stanford

Tagged solicitor Hannah Stanford

Grateful to Hannah and the staff at Martin Tolhurst. Started divorce proceedings as a LIP in Jan 2024, instructed Hannah at start of 2025 as needed legal counsel. Hannah talked me through each stage and never served me away from what I was asking for. Emails have been acknowledged and replied to, calls have been replied to and the constant worry as to outcome was not needed as we were successful in court. High recommend.
