Sara Rutter

Tagged solicitor Sara Rutter

When I met Sara Rutter, I was in a complete mess with my divorce. Sara listened to everything my children and I had been through, talked me through the process and has been there for us every step of the way. My circumstances have not been the easiest and yet, Sara has acted professionally throughout and has achieved a positive outcome for my boys and I. I honestly can’t thank her enough. I would recommend Sara Rutter to anyone.

Beresford Kennedy

Tagged solicitor Beresford Kennedy

I had a very positive experience overall. My solicitor was extremely responsive, approachable and efficient throughout the process of counselling me on my prenuptial agreement. Communication was excellent, and I always felt that questions were dealt with promptly and clearly in most situations. Remarkably easy to understand and relatable. I would definitely recommend to friends.

Asia Razaq-Miah

Tagged solicitor Asia Razaq-Miah

Asia and her team have been really helpful in bringing a complex family situation to a fair solution. Having had to change solicitors due to a conflict, we had to find a new solicitor in a hurry with a court appearance looming. She helped us navigate the complexities of the family courts ensuring that we were clear on our goals and expectations. The end result was a final hearing with an agreed court order covering all parties involved.

Keri-Anne Bradley

Tagged solicitor Keri-Anne Bradley

Wow. When pray for help, sometimes you get sent an angel. Keri-Anne Bradley At the family law group not only showed me genuine care, but she was straight with me. She took my case on even with a huge work load from other areas because she was genuinely concerned for my children and she put them first the whole way through. I felt safe with her and the trust was instantly there which I struggle with when it comes to solicitors due to past experiences with others! She got us the results we needed in an emergency situation and now my children are so much happier for it. The bar is set very high with this one! Absolute angel, and extremely professional. Thank you from me for your amazing service and my family would all like to say thank you as well!

I instructed Callam Standen at OTB Legal for an FLR(M) unmarried partner application under Appendix FM. From the very first consultation Callam was honest, clear, and straight to the point. He told me what I needed to hear rather than what I wanted to hear, and that honesty gave me confidence throughout the process. My case had some complexity — my partner and I had not cohabited due to some reasons, and I was working to a very tight deadline. Callam understood the urgency, prepared a thorough and well-crafted application, and addressed every potential question the caseworker might have in a detailed cover letter. He also discussed the case with a senior colleague to make sure the strategy was right. The application was submitted using the super priority service and was approved the day of biometrics. I could not have asked for a better outcome. Callam was responsive, professional, and genuinely cared about getting this right. His fees were transparent and fair, and he even adjusted them when the scope of the case changed. I would recommend him and OTB Legal without hesitation to anyone in a similar position. Thank you Callam — you changed my life.
