Stowe Family Law - Bristol Reviews 

We rang several law firms beforehand who were frustratingly unable to assist. However, Stowe Law listened to our concerns carefully, with empathy and respect. In our subsequent strategy meeting which took place straightaway, Judit Kerese, promptly evaluated our situation and gave highly effective guidance, which was actioned promptly. We are very grateful to everyone at Stowe Family Law, for their warmth, professionalism and guidance in helping resolve our difficulties.

I had an initial consultation with Judit Kerese, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. From the moment we spoke, she was incredibly understanding, empathetic, and genuinely took the time to listen to my situation.

It was clear that Judit had thoroughly familiarised herself with my case before our call, which meant we could make the most of our time together. Her knowledge of family law was outstanding, and she answered every one of my questions thoroughly, providing clear, practical advice and guidance that I really needed.

What impressed me most was how approachable and compassionate she was. She made me feel heard and supported during what is a very difficult and emotional time. Despite being highly professional, she was also warm, friendly, and never once made me feel pressured to use her services.

I came away from our conversation feeling far more informed, reassured, and confident about my options. I would not hesitate to recommend Judit to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, caring, and professional family lawyer. She is an absolute credit to her profession.

We have really valued the time, expertise and generosity Judit Kerese has given to the clients and students this year in our Family Advice Bristol (FAB) clinics. 12 clients have had the opportunity to receive advice from her sessions alone; many have sent us grateful thanks for the service they have received.

From Judit's sessions, the clinic has offered 92 opportunities for students to gain fantastic insight into the work of specialist family solicitors, and we have had excellent feedback on how much the students have enjoyed and learned from the sessions. Several students have reconsidered family law as an area they would be interested in, having completely disregarded it before and for some it has provided valuable insight to their decision-making processes for future direction regarding which branch of the profession to pursue.

We have very much enjoyed working with Judit this year and hope that she will be willing to continue working with us into the next academic year!

Found Bethan extremely informative great guidance ad support Stowe lawyers are on the ball, they made me feel confident and less nervous regarding the legal Element of this process. I highly recommend this Stowe family law to everyone. Thank you.

Lauren was very helpful. She understood the very complicated situation very quickly. If I was able to go ahead I wouldn't hesitate in engaging her and would have every confidence in her abilities.

Continuity of case service providers an what was a long and complicated matter.
A good ear and a gentle hand in attempts to move matters forward in the face of stern and unreasonable opposition.

I thought Courtney was really helpful in really challenging circumstances

The advice I was giving was constructive and clearly explained. And has given me a good understanding of the situation I'm currently in. And what options I have moving forward with my separation and divorce. Thank you very much for your advice and support Courtney.

Rashmita explained everything clearly & was honest with options and steps involved to complete my divorce. Get advice has given me confidence to proceed with discussions and I will definitely continue using Stowe.

The team at Stowe have been really helpful during a very difficult time. I would highly recommend Judit Kerese, who gave me every opportunity for the best outcome of my case and was the support and legal backing I needed at a highly stressful time. All the way through to a final hearing to have someone responsive, diligent and offering sound advice, who is part of larger team is essential in these times. I would certainly recommend Stowe to anyone going through the family courts.

Stowe we're very helpful in what is a very stressful situation, divorce. I had a free conversation with a divorce solicitor to help me decide whether to proceed with that company and what tack to choose. They were very calming and explained everything to me. They arranged a few telephone conversations and we communicated mostly by emails. They kept me informed on costs as time progressed and were within the estimate originally provided.

Joanna’s legal knowledge and attention to client care have been exceptional throughout. Whilst going through a divorce process was never going to be nice, Joanna has balanced absolute professionalism with maintaining a friendly, caring and good-humoured approach. I have really appreciated her support every step of the way.

I am grateful for the guidance received from Joanna Newton and the team navigating a challenging divorce. They are highly professional and through perseverance the last hurdles may be in sight.

I had the best possible experience with Zoe Robinson's family law team, in a very high conflict situation with my daughter's father.
From the begining, the team's understanding of the complexity of the situation, diligence, honest and realistic advice, and extremely good judicial support, was crucial to get the the best outcome in family court.
I am so happy, and hopeful for my daughter's future because i felt empowered by Zoe's team.
I definitely recommend Zoe Robinson's family law service. For me, she is the 'go to' solicitor for any future conflict situations with my daughter's father.

I'd like to thank Zoe Robinson and all of the team at Stowe Family Law for all of their (ongoing) support through what has been a really difficult time. Since the start, Zoe has been professional, knowledgeable, and gave me clear advice whilst also acting quickly when things escalated.

Zoe has so far handled my case with real precision and care and has always focused on what was best for my child as well as my rights as a parent. I have always felt confident and fully informed when speaking with Zoe.

Zoe's representation has been top-notch and it's made all the difference for not only me but my child, too.

I highly recommend Zoe to anyone needing expert, compassionate help with family law matters.

I am extremely disappointed with the service I received. Despite paying over £3,000, I was left without a barrister at a critical stage, which caused me unnecessary stress and left me unrepresented when I needed support the most. I expected professionalism, transparency, and proper guidance, but instead I feel completely let down and out of pocket.

I would not recommend Stowe Family Law based on my experience — the lack of accountability and poor communication has been deeply frustrating and unfair.

Rachel Fisher was brilliant, friendly, informative, excellent communication and we can’t thank her enough.
We would highly recommend to anyone seeking matters regarding family law.

After a lengthy and difficult divorce, (which Stowe handled for me), I was forced to seek their help again in chasing the Court Order settlement.
This has now reached a conclusion due to my solicitor listening, advising and implementing what was needed to bring this about. Special thanks to Judit Kerese for all her support. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Stowe to friends and family.

Joanna strikes a superb balance between offering the assurances you need when entering a process - trust, knowledge, experience, perspective etc - and the empathy required to sense the emotional support you need when in it. I am currently at the very early stages of this but felt immediately at ease with Joanna. Pace is being driven initially by me and at no time have I felt pushed to go faster. If anything, when reconciliation with my partner has entered as a potential development (as in my case) I have been encouraged to pursue with gusto. This feels all about me and not about a cookie cutter approach to get to a conclusion asap. Joanna is a class act. Could not recommend highly enough.

Instructed this Company to assist getting a financial settlement in place for my Divorce. Nearly 18 months on and absolutely no further forward found them unapproachable when seeking advice and information. More contact was made with their extensive finance department as they persistently pursued money from me to be held on account. No clear or consise itemised invoice was ever available. However there was never enough money held in account and in my view nearly £5k was spent for absolutely no progress or resolution. After spending all my savings I disinterested this firm and dealt with my husband's solicitors directly who turned out to be very co operative I am pleased to say we have reached a resolution with settlement in place and awaiting my decree absolute. That again I dealt with completely separately from this Company via gov website.
Stowe Family Law proved not to be helpful regarding my situation and are far more keen to take your money than give any helpful advice.
I sorted thefinancial consent order directly with my husbands solicitors dirctly
