Ian Brunt

Tagged solicitor Ian Brunt

I worked with Ian regarding an Adoption case. I am an Advocate and I was the Litigation Friend for Dad. Ian was fantastic with the person I was supporting. Ian took time to explain to Dad, in great, simplistic language, what was happening, what Dad's rights where, and how I could help, and Ian could help too. Myself and Ian had a wonderful working relationship, ensuring the best possible outcome for Dad, working in joint partnership. Ian took great steps to explain in clear and honest communication what Dad's rights were, even in what was a very difficult case. Ian was knowledgeable, professional, responsive and always had a friendly smile to greet us. I would use Ian again and would recommend him to the colleagues in my organisation.

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!

Francesca Mears

Tagged solicitor Francesca Mears

Francesca has been absolutely amazing! Through out the process she has always been proactive, prompt to reply, patient and knowledgeable. I truly believe Francesca made this difficult, long and stressful process as smooth and bearable as it could possibly get. She gave me the right advice at the right time and always had time to answer my endless emails full of questions. She has been absolutely mindful as to not incur unnecessary legal costs for me. Always put me as her client first and did whatever was in my best interests. Thank you Francesca and thank you Andrew Isaacs!
