Outstanding in class

My experience of Hannah is that she is driven by her values and treats her clients with respect, kindness and empathy when explaining the facts and risks associated with proceeding with divorce proceedings. She is in her job for the right reasons and I'm thankful to have found her locally to me.

Exceptional Service from Ross

I've used Ross on a number of occasions over the years, and the service has always been exceptional. Most recently, I had a 20-minute phone consultation, and once again I came away feeling reassured and confident. I really value his ability to genuinely listen. He takes the time to understand not just the legal issue, but also the human side of the situation. His advice is always clear, practical and straight to the point. His calm and reassuring tone helps take the stress out of what can often be an anxious situation. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Ross to anyone!

Divorce after a very long time

Despite I not having any experience of divorce, Ross made all the steps as clear as possible. My husband had a completely incompetent solicitor (different practice)and Ross was very professional in clearing her errors. He was very empathetic and realised the difficulties of living together while the process was being completed.

Excellent service and clear communication throughout

I had a very positive experience working with this firm. From the start, communication was clear and professional, and everything was explained in a way that was easy to understand. They handled my case efficiently and kept me updated at every stage, which gave me a lot of confidence in the process.

5 Star Service

Rhianna has been absolutely fantastic dealing with an array of issues surrounding child matters and divorce. She’s be professional whilst being so kind and supportive, whilst keeping my expectations realistic. I have never felt alone going through lengthy court hearings and a never ending saga . If I had to go through this again (which I sincerely hope I won’t be!) l would go back to her in a heartbeat. Lauren, who has been supporting her has also been an absolute pleasure, reassuring and professional.

I felt in safe hands

I found Samantha to be very professional and thorough. I really felt that my sale and purchase were in safe hands and there would be nothing overlooked. There was good communication throughout. Information about searches and specifics for the property were shared as they were received, followed by thorough analysis documents to summarise the information. I would recommend Goughs and Samantha to anyone wanting a streamlined and professional service.

Quick, efficient and communicative.

I instructed Nadine Stevenson at Goughs Solicitors to act on my residential purchase transaction in 2026 and was really impressed with her, and her team. Having owned more modern properties in the past, this was my first time purchasing an older property which is also in a Conservation Area, so I felt it was important to instruct someone with expertise in this area. Nadine did not disappoint. Throughout the process I felt like I was in good hands, and she was so quick with all of her reporting, too. I could always get through to her quickly over the phone and via email, which is half the battle when you're buying and selling property. I have used different firms in the past and the service received this time around has been so much better, resulting in a stress-free experience. Thank you Nadine and Amanda!

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a detailed review. We are delighted to hear that you had such a positive experience with Nadine and her team during your residential purchase. Purchasing an older property, particularly one in a Conservation Area, can present additional complexities, so it is wonderful to know that Nadine's expertise and guidance helped you feel confident and well supported throughout the process. We are especially pleased that you felt you were in good hands from start to finish and that the service provided met your expectations. Thank you for choosing Goughs and for placing your trust in us for such an important transaction. We will be sure to share your kind feedback with Nadine and her team.

Divorce Advice

I can’t recommend Hannah highly enough. She took the time to listen to my situation, quickly understood the key issues, and gave me clear, practical advice without any pressure. Despite offering the initial advice free of charge, she was incredibly generous with her time and helped me get to the bottom of a complex situation far more quickly than I expected. Hannah’s professionalism, knowledge, and compassionate approach immediately put me at ease. I’m extremely grateful for their help and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone needing expert family law advice.

We'd highly recommend using them to anyone looking for a local solicitor to help with the process.

We’ve just bought and sold our home. Louis was our solicitor and I can say with some certainty that we’d have lost our dream family home if it wasn’t for him. He worked so hard for us, gave good advice, replied to emails and calls immediately - many many other solicitors don’t (our buyers and sellers solicitors certainly were not as reliable). I couldn’t recommend highly enough. They were amazing and we are so grateful to them - above and beyond and 100% worth the extra cost. Thank you guys so much!
