Excellent advice and support

Nia Thomas has been very professional but also compassionate during a very difficult separation. She has given excellent legal advice but also supported me through the whole process. I would strongly recommend Grant Stephens Family Law and in particular Nia to anyone in the same situation.

Divorce Proceedings

5

Nia Thomas provided me with excellent professional advice throughout my divorce proceedings. This has taken a year and she has been a constant source of reassurance in one of the most difficult times of my life. She has guided me and shown empathy at all times. She explained complex information in a clear manner so that I could understand each process. I really don't know how I would have got through it without her. Also Nel provided efficient support.

Excellent Service

I recently faced a potentially difficult family matter following on from previous court proceedings many years ago. My previous experience of working with other solicitors had been very stressful, but I saw that that Grant Stephens' reviews indicated that they were very supportive and compassionate as well as highly professional - and this has been my experience also. Nia and her colleagues have been excellent throughout, and provided constant reassurance and support, dealing with the matter professionally and quickly. E-mails and phone calls were answered quickly and information from the court was always provided with a detailed explanation, which left me reassured about my position. I can't recommend Grant Stephens enough.

Family matter - great service

Huge thank you to Nia who was superb from start to finish. Gave great advice and got me a great result in what was quite a tricky case. Very professional and always took her time to explain things in a way I understood despite it being quite a complex area of law. Would highly recommend, thank you!

Financial Remedy

5

I would like to give a big thank you to Nia for carrying out such a great job,
while representing me in a very delicate case regarding financial remedy,

Nia was very welcoming and friendly from the start, and made me feel comfortable from our first meeting,

In contacting my ex wife she sent a wonderful letter and won my case for me
And not to great an expense,

Nia was a pleasure to work with,
I hope I don’t need a solicitor again but if I did I would not hesitate to contact her and Grant Stephens again,

Exceptional service for divorce proceedings

5

From the first interaction with Grant Stephens Law and Nia I felt extremely comfortable and confident in the advice and service I was receiving. Divorces can take place over a long period and the communication throughout was excellent and the professionalism exemplary. Nia's calm and considerate approach was extremely reassuring. She and Grant Stephens Law made an extremely challenging process so much easier to deal with and I can't thank Nia enough for helping me to reach a more than satisfactory agreement.
Thank you to everyone involved. I can't recommend Nia and Grant Stephens enough.
