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."

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.

We cannot thank Callum Morris enough for the exceptional support he has given us throughout one of the most difficult periods of our lives. Now that we have finally completed this ordeal, which took over a year to get through, we feel incredibly grateful to have had Callum by our side every step of the way. Before choosing representation, I spent weeks researching and quickly realised that Callum was one of the most qualified and respected professionals in his field. Having now witnessed first-hand exactly what he is capable of, I can honestly say that decision was one of the best we made. From the very beginning, his professionalism, knowledge, and genuine compassion were outstanding. Throughout the entire process, he handled everything perfectly while always making us feel supported and reassured. Even during the hardest moments, Callum managed to lift our spirits, offering comfort and even making us smile when we needed it most. His calm approach, understanding, and dedication made an incredibly stressful situation far more manageable. We are deeply thankful for everything he has done for us. His expertise, commitment, and unwavering support have meant more to us than words can express. We would highly recommend Callum to anyone in need of his services he truly goes above and beyond.

I cannot recommend Jayne highly enough. She has supported me through an incredibly difficult and stressful period involving both family court proceedings and financial matters, and I genuinely don’t know what I would have done without her. From the very beginning, Jayne has been professional, knowledgeable, understanding and incredibly supportive. She always took the time to explain things clearly, answer my questions and reassure me when I was worried or overwhelmed. I never felt like I was just another client – I always felt listened to and supported. Going through family court can be extremely emotional, but having Jayne there to guide me through the process made such a difference. She was always honest with me, gave clear advice and helped me feel much more confident about what was happening and what I needed to do. I am so grateful for everything Jayne has done for me and my family. Her kindness and support have meant more to me than she probably realises. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone needing a solicitor who is not only excellent at her job, but who genuinely cares about the people she represents.

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.

Dear Sarah, thank you so much for the update and all your help and support. You've kept me grounded throughout and that, in itself, has been invaluable

I instructed Sarah Abbotts of Beswicks Legal to represent me during a very acrimonious divorce from my former husband. From the very first meeting, Sarah was kind, understanding, and incredibly supportive, and she took the time to guide me through each stage of the process in a way that made everything feel far less overwhelming. Throughout the case, Sarah was always professional, thorough, and clearly very knowledgeable, but what stood out most was the genuine support she gave me during such a difficult time. At trial I secured a favourable outcome, and I do not believe I would have achieved the same result without Sarah representing me. Thank you, Sarah, you made an incredibly stressful and emotional period much easier to get through.
