Outstanding Service
I had the pleasure of being represented by Lucy Cook in a recent family court matter, and I cannot recommend this firm highly enough. Lucy was professional, empathetic, and incredibly kind throughout. Her advice was always accurate, and I quickly came to trust her judgement. She went above and beyond to support me, always prioritising my son’s and my best interests. An outstanding service—thank you!

Excellent legal advice
I had a lengthy child arrangement order and I couldn’t have done it without my solicitor. She was very helpful and understanding and guided me through the process so that it was as least stressful as it could be.

Friendly, Reassuring and Professional
Alletsons represented me for my divorce, negotiating the assets and financial side of the proceedings and made the process very easy to understand and as smooth as possible. They were professional, yet sympathetic and reassuring and made me feel confident in my case. I would recommend them to anyone in my position.

No help or response when needed.
Following our initial "free" consultation, and an application for legal aid required, we were unable to converse and had no response to emails sent. Despite a Court date being sprung on us, still no help or advice was given. Extremely disappointed and now wish we had gone elsewhere! Will never use again.
