Matthew Dobkins was a fantastic barrister who acted for me during a child arrangements order that had been going on for almost a year, he attended the final hearing with me and I can’t fault him, he was extremely knowledgeable, professional and extremely good at what he does! I would highly recommend him and this firm and wouldn’t hesitate to contact them again should I need them in the future, thanks again for all your help and support, Nathan.

Matthew Dobkin has been exceptional in the commitment he has shown to achieving a positive outcome in the EHCP process. What has been achieved with his involvement is remarkable over a relatively short period of time. He steered the whole process towards the best conclusion possible, always making himself available to answer my queries or implement actions. I would not hesitate to recommend Mr Dobkin in relation to navigating the EHCP and SEND Tribunal process. KMC

Matthew has been exceptional with service, in depth regular communication around my needs, and explanations of legal processes. He ultimately secured very favourable outcomes in both child arrangements and financial proceedings.

Matthew Dobkin of Sugare&Co.represented my sister in recent divorce proceedings. He dealt with every aspect of the case in a very professional manner, and has also shown great empathy at times of distress.
His attention to detail has been second to none. He has been consistent, transparent and reliable throughout the entire process. He has always gone the extra mile and been available to answer questions when required.
The outcome of the financial dispute was an agreeable resolution, and a welcome end to a long period of conflict.
I would like to thank Matthew and the support team at Sugare&Co for all their hard work and dedication.
I would be happy to recommend Matthew to anyone who requires the sevices of an excellent Family Law Solicitor.
