I am incredibly grateful to Tonia Brooks for helping settle my son's case. Her dedication and the sheer amount of effort and hard work she put into our case was remarkable.

Separation Agreement & consent Order

Hannah helped draft a Separation Agreement and eventually obtain a Consent Order in my favour in what eventually became a protracted and complicated case due to continual delays and obstacles presented by the other party. Hannah remained professional and diligent at all times, offering reassuring advice where needed.

Awful

⭐ 1/5 – Extremely Disappointing Experience I approached FBC because I was going through an incredibly difficult situation involving my daughter and genuinely hoped they would provide professional help and support. Unfortunately, my experience was the complete opposite. I was charged what I felt was an excessive amount of money, and when my circumstances changed and I lost my job, I found their attitude towards me became unpleasant and unsympathetic. When someone is dealing with a family matter involving their child, they are already under enormous pressure. I expected understanding, clear communication and professional support, particularly after paying significant fees. Instead, I was left extremely disappointed with how I felt I was treated. Based on my personal experience, I would not recommend FBC. I strongly advise anyone considering using their services to carefully understand the fees, what work will actually be carried out and what support you will receive before agreeing to anything. I have kept the correspondence and records relating to my experience and am prepared to raise my concerns through the appropriate complaint channels. A very disappointing experience at a time when I needed professional support the most.

Overall Legal Counsel

I’ve had a really positive experience with FBCMB. They were consistently supportive, understanding, and genuinely caring throughout a stressful period in my life. Their communication was calm, clear, and reassuring, and I always felt they were looking out for me. I’d happily recommend them to anyone who needs a compassionate and reliable solicitor.

Ok until FBC Manby Bowdler took over

I’ve been using Jordans for my no fault divorce. Everything was fine, until FBC Manby Bowdler took over. Ever since then, the whole process is just being dragged out. Communication with my solicitor had been excellent before, now it’s pretty poor. I’m not blaming my solicitor, I blame those higher up. My husband is also using them (dealing with Michael Jordan), for the purchase of a flat. Everything is so close to completion yet Jordans are holding things up. The whole situation is really getting us both down. I am planning to use a solicitor in future for various reasons, but I will not be using Jordans, which is a shame as they are a local well established company.

I found Emma’s service and communication to be clear, concise, and professional throughout every stage of the process. She was understanding and sympathetic, while also being honest and direct in her advice and recommendations on how to move forward. I felt that she had a thorough understanding of my case and was able to maintain focus on the objectives and desired outcome of the divorce, without allowing emotions to detract from the overall strategy. Her proposals were clear, practical, and extremely helpful, and it was evident that they had been carefully considered and well planned. I would not hesitate to recommend Emma to anyone seeking knowledgeable, supportive, and effective legal representation.

I had a call today with Shelley DeWorringham and was really impressed with her support. She was kind, patient, and took the time to explain everything clearly, which made a stressful situation feel much more manageable. I felt genuinely listened to and reassured throughout the call. Her professionalism and empathy really stood out. I would highly recommend Shelley to anyone needing legal advice.

Sue...Just amazing!

I cannot thank Sue enough for everything she did for my son and our family. From the very beginning, she showed incredible compassion and truly understood how stressful this situation was for us. She put an immense amount of work and effort into his case, leaving no stone unturned. Whenever I had questions or worries, she was always there to reassure me and explain things clearly. Thanks to her dedication, we got an amazing outcome that was exactly what we wanted. I highly recommend her services!

I appreciated the personal service rather than being sent to a call centre for enquiries. Sharon James and Cori Whittall supported me fully at a difficult time when I needed to sell my mom's property following her death. They helped me navigate the sales process to complete all the necessary paperwork and I was always able to speak to either one if I had any queries. I couldn't have asked for a better service and would definitely recommend them to others.

Truly excellent service

Victoria Upton has assisted us with executing our father’s estate by applying for grant of probate and helping us with setting up a trust. At every point she has been incredibly efficient, we felt she was looking out for our best interests and she was very pleasant to work with. One hears horror stories of solicitors taking forever to do things but there was none of that. We were kept fully informed at every stage and everything was done very quickly. Thank you!
