Bethan Tapper

Tagged solicitor Bethan Tapper

From my first conversation with Wendy Hopkins Family Law, I felt in safe hands. Rebecca Knight represented me throughout my divorce and at all times she has been reassuring, supportive and absolutely focused on my needs and securing me a fair and reasonable settlement. I worked with Rebecca’s colleagues to draft a Will, which was also dealt with sensitively and with great advice and support. Rebecca has always been responsive, pragmatic, full of common-sense and empathy and has helped me to navigate a stressful and at times, confusing process. I have always felt like she and the wider team have acted in my best interests and the settlement that has been secured for me, has enabled me to look forward, positively and build my new life. I certainly felt my emotional health has been cared about having Rebecca, Chris, Bethan and Esther in my corner at what has been one of the most difficult times of my life. I would have no hesitation about recommending Rebecca and the team at Wendy Hopkins to any friends or family who face a relationship breakdown. Thank you.

Lindsay McKinnie

Tagged solicitor Lindsay McKinnie

I cannot be more grateful to Lindsay, throughout a very distressing time. To say the least I would recommend her 100%! Her conduct was not only very professional, but kind and down to earth. She made my family feel valued and supported. Lindsays communication with us was constant, replying by text, when she was unable to speak directly, giving reassurance when needed. She communicated everything we needed to know, throughly & made sure everything was understood, at every point of her service. At no point did we feel that there were any concerns of neglect, towards us or the situation we were dealing with. Lindsay remained focused and gave us peace of mind. This meant so much & was so important. Thank you!

Chris TaylorZahra Nawaz

Tagged solicitors Chris Taylor and Zahra Nawaz

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Eaton Smith twice now, and both experiences have been fantastic. Chris assisted me with the EULA for my indie game, and his kindness, thoroughness, and incredibly fast email responses made the entire process seamless. Later, when I needed a solicitor for my prenup, I immediately turned to Chris, who connected me with Zahra. She was just as professional and kind, going above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. She even caught an error in our documents at 8 PM on a Friday and reached out immediately to help us fix it. Their level of attentiveness and professionalism is truly exceptional, and I highly recommend them to anyone in need of legal services.

Michael Brierley

Tagged solicitor Michael Brierley

Having spent the previous 24 months going around in circles with another practice, it was a pleasure to be introduced to Michael at Stokes Partners who excelled in every sense of the word. From the initial phone call to the final email, his care, excellent advice and efficient service meant much more than words can ever express at a time when the family needed it most.

Nicola Weeks

Tagged solicitor Nicola Weeks

Pragmatic but essential guidance through divorce proceedings. It was very important to both of us that we didn't fall out and make a bad situation worse, and Nicola worked with me and my now ex-wife's solicitor to ensure that any queries or potentially contentious issues were quickly and positively closed down. The orders were proposed and agreed promptly and the whole exercise was as painless as it could be in the circumstances.
