Ashleigh and Philip were professional

Ashleigh and Philip were professional, responsive and pragmatic throughout a very long-running financial remedy case.

Ashleigh and Philip took the time to explain each stage clearly, challenged issues with the other side where appropriate, and worked tirelessly to get the matter concluded before the court hearing.

Communication was excellent throughout, and we particularly appreciated the personal telephone call when the Consent Order was approved. Thank you both

Initially it all sounded good

Initially it all sounded good. I wanted advice on a complicated issue and gave lots of information so the person I saw was informed. Paid upfront and it was online. The woman had no notes and rather than rescheduling she just waffled and used only 50 minutes of the hour I paid for then suggested I see a colleague with more experience for around 2k
Pretty rubbish really when I am struggling with a direct situation
I have just responded to the request for information about my 9 30 appointment on the 30th June

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations.

We have taken the opportunity to review the circumstances surrounding your consultation and are satisfied that the advice provided was appropriate to the nature and complexity of the matter discussed. In matters of this nature, seeking specialist Counsel’s opinion can be an important and appropriate next step where an early agreement cannot be reached, rather than an indication that your solicitor was unable to advise you.

We do, however, appreciate your feedback and take all client comments seriously as part of our commitment to providing the best possible service.

Reassuring

I recently used Stowe Family Law to help navigate the complexities of increasing contact with my daughter. Ashleigh was invaluable throughout the process, providing clear, practical guidance and genuine reassurance at every step. I'd highly recommend her to anyone facing similar circumstances.

We have been working with Ashleigh…

We have been working with Ashleigh Balodis for the past several months with regards to a child custody issue- she has been knowledgable, thorough and an immense support to our family in a very challenging situation. We have left our meetings feeling well informed, better prepared for our situation and personally supported by her through it. She has been available, approachable and has an immense wealth of knowledge - we are grateful to have her with us through this situation in which we would have otherwise been lost.

A friendly face during a difficult time

Ashleigh was brought in to cover my case ahead of the hearing. She was thoughtful, warm and put effort into helping me to understand what was happening and what was required of me. I wasn't the easiest client but she was very patient with me throughout the process.

Stepping into a case shortly before a hearing is never easy, so it’s wonderful to hear the positive impact Ashleigh had during such an important stage of your matter.

What stands out from your feedback is the care she took to ensure you understood the process and felt supported throughout. Legal proceedings can feel daunting, particularly when emotions are running high, and having someone who is patient, understanding and willing to take the time to explain things clearly can make all the difference.

Thank you for recognising Ashleigh’s efforts and for sharing your experience.

A Big Firm with friendly

A Big Firm with friendly, helpful staff/solicitors. Made an enquiry, was paired with a lovely group of people, who put me at ease from the word go and kept me informed throughout the process!!
Nothing too much trouble - good attention to detail, caring, informative, reliable!
Using Solicitors for personal matters can be Stressful, timely and costly, but given my circumstance, was necessary to use people with the Correct skill set to get matters resolved!
Couldn’t have dealt with life or matters without them!
Highly recommend them 👊👍

I am nearly 7 months into my Divorce…

I am nearly 7 months into my Divorce journey so whilst not complete yet I cannot speak highly enough of Stowe Family Law. Charlotte Kirkby and the rest of the team, notably Angela Sandhu and Melanie Quinn (Head Honcho!) are just fabulous. They are all so attentive and the speed of replies when you are particularly anxious about something is very impressive. Face to face or via teams meetings demonstrate their real empathy and you genuinely feel like a real person rather than simply a client who pays.
I had a long meeting with Charlotte yesterday and she doesnt miss a trick, she gives you the impression that you really are in safe hands when feeling incredibly lonely and vulnerable and it was especially lovely as we seemed to share the the same sense of humour.
They are not cheap as Solicitors go but this is my future we are dealing with so for me it is important to get an excellent team around me and I feel very confident that is the case here.

Thank you for such a thoughtful and honest review. Divorce proceedings can be emotionally exhausting, particularly over a long period of time, so it means a great deal to hear how supported you’ve felt by Charlotte, Angela, Melanie and the wider team throughout your journey so far.

Your comments perfectly capture the level of care and commitment we aim to provide to every client. Being responsive when worries arise, showing genuine empathy, and helping clients feel reassured during vulnerable moments are all incredibly important to us. We’re especially pleased to hear that Charlotte’s support, attention to detail and personal approach have helped you feel safe and understood during such a significant stage in your life.

Thank you as well for recognising the value of having the right team around you during matters as important as your future. We truly appreciate your trust in us and will make sure your lovely feedback is shared with everyone mentioned.

Excellent, caring service

Getting divorced is intimidating and overwhelming, particularly where our finances are concerned. Thankfully Faye talked me through everything in easy-to-understand language and clearly set out what I needed to do, how much it would cost to hire the firm's services, and likely areas of friction that would need to be overcome.

Faye was warm, friendly, and professional to a T. I left our video call feeling more confident in what I needed to do next and would strongly recommend the firm for others in my position.

An invaluable asset

Stowe Family Law have been an invaluable help and support throughout an extensive and often complex case for custody of my 11 yr old daughter. Ashleigh Balodis has been a highly valued asset in my dispute, she was extremely responsive and provided good knowledge and insight. We have achieved more than we could have hoped for and the conclusion was achieved through the support and capability of both Ashleigh and my assigned Barrister, recommended by Stowe.
