James Scarborough at Stowe Family Law

I have no hesitation in recommending James at Stowe, St Albans. With our two businesses to deal with, within the complexities of the divorce, James dealt with all in a diligent, careful and prompt manner throughout. His attention to detail was very reassuring and communication was always speedy and comprehensive.
James has a pleasant approach and I felt comfortable with all communications.
Despite giving James 5* for his personal service, I nevertheless felt let down by an assigned third party dealing with the pension arrangements. Their level of service certainly did not reflect the 5* service given by James.

Genuine Professional Representation

I was represented by Stowe Family Law and partner James Scarborough through a very protracted and difficult divorce that culminated during the pandemic. Prior to discovering James, I had been let down my former legal practice who had not filed my papers to the court on time. I had also approached several local solicitors who didn't return my calls or were "too busy" to take on another case. So, it was with great relief that eventually I found James (by thorough research across the net), who I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending. James is a consummate professional. He is extremely diligent, prompt, thorough and his advice is considered, thoughtful and balanced. When I compare his performance with my former practice and the legal opposition team, he is undoubtedly streaks ahead. Five stars.

Professional and constructive handling…

Professional and constructive handling of my family law matter which ran for a number of years, good to have the continuity throughout. Initiative when needed, and cool heads when mine was overly swayed by emotion. One minor billing hiccup in an otherwise smooth engagement, many thanks to all at Stowe.
