“Happy with the way my case was dealt with. Colin promptly reply to my mails. Good solicitor, I recommend this company to anyone with marital issue.”

“During a challenging period of my life when I was navigating the court system to gain access to my children, Colin was a steady source of legal support. His advice was consistently sound and child-focused, which was of paramount importance to me. Colin’s professionalism and knowledge were evident throughout our interactions. He communicated clearly and was both honest and approachable, making a tough situation more manageable. Although the circumstances were difficult, Colin’s guidance was a valuable anchor in the storm. I am grateful for his assistance and would recommend his services to those who find themselves in similar, complex family matters.”

“Very helpful and clear. Always available for advice.”

“Colin was calm, approachable and friendly throughout the entire last year. Although we mostly communicated via email, his responses to my queries were almost instantaneous and, without exception, put my mind at ease. Colin’s approach is logical, calming and reassuring. Throughout, I felt that my side of the conflict was not only acknowledged but supported, and whenever I asked for a meeting, whether via Zoom or in person in the Sheffield office, I was able to meet him within 48 hours. Colin was proactive until the very end, too, resolving some issues with the Hull court that emerged at the very last minute.”
