Donna was a good divorce solicitor
I found Donna to be good to deal with at a difficult time.
She was rapid in her responses and her advice was sound and easy to follow so far as these things go.
She had a great eye for detail and picked up on thing others had missed.
I would use this firm again.
A representative from Fieldings Porter responded to this review on 19 May, 2025:
Thank you for your kind review, Rebecca. We're glad Donna’s support, attention to detail, and clear advice made a difference during a challenging time.

Excellent.
During the most frustrating and challenging chapter of our lives, Sajeda helped us in more ways than we thought possible. Her kind demeanour whilst helpful, was lifted by her punctuality in response and admin times. I dont think I could've expected more from a family law solicitor than Sajeda provided. Had we not had help from this firm and faught against a complete cluster of misinformation and diagnoses, our family may not be what it is today. From the bottom of our hearts, thankyou.
A representative from Fieldings Porter responded to this review on 14 May, 2025:
Thank you for your heartfelt review. We're so pleased Sajeda could support you during such a challenging time—your kind words truly mean a lot.

Highly recommended
After transferring to Fieldings Porter from another firm, I was quite nervous about starting over with a new solicitor. Stacey was absolutely amazing and immediately put me at ease. Her communication is excellent and she responds promptly and I’ve never had to chase anything up with her. Stacey is efficient, clear, and to the point, ensuring everything gets done exactly as needed. She’s also guided me through each step of the process, making everything easy to understand. I would highly recommend Stacey to anyone looking for a reliable and proactive solicitor. I also had the support of Donna Leigh while Stacey was on leave, and she was equally amazing.
A representative from Fieldings Porter responded to this review on 06 May, 2025:
Hi Brittany. Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We’re so glad to hear that Stacey was able to put you at ease and provide excellent communication throughout your experience. It’s great to know that both Stacey and Donna were able to support you and guide you through the process with efficiency and clarity. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we truly appreciate your trust in Fieldings Porter.

Family Court Proceedings
Unfortunately I was going through some difficult family problems involving my ex and our children.
Stacey was absolutely fantastic throughout the whole process; she supported me through the whole case, kept me updated, explained everything in detail. She is very professional, very knowledgeable and got us as a family the best outcome we could have asked for.
Thank you Stacey
A representative from Fieldings Porter responded to this review on 06 May, 2025:
Thank you for sharing your experience, Emma. We’re so glad to hear that Stacey was able to support you through such a difficult time with professionalism and expertise.

Your kind words mean a lot, and we’ll be sure to pass them on to Stacey. Thank you again, and we wish you and your family all the best moving forward.

Professional and caring service
When something negative happens in our lives we need professional advice that's reliable and timely but delivered in a caring way. That is what Deborah delivered and it's resulted in a better outcome than I expected from my injury.
I was kept fully informed at every stage of the process and had direct contact with Deborah and her colleague. The matter was concluded much earlier than I anticipated and the final award was higher than I thought.
A representative from Fieldings Porter responded to this review on 17 March, 2025:
Thank you, Rachel! We're so glad to hear that Deborah provided the professional, caring personal injury service you needed. It's wonderful that the outcome exceeded your expectations. We truly appreciate your feedback!

Avoid this firm at all costs !! I can see many others have had a horrendous experience as well. My family and I have had the misfortune of having them deal with my grandmas estate and for what has been a truly tragic and heartbreaking time already after losing her, they have made it a million times worse and we will be taking this matter further they are an absolute joke and should not be able to handle such sensitive matters. Debbie leventhall who we’ve had to deal with has been TERRIBLE and is going against the wishes of the majority beneficiaries. Despite 2 out of 3 of the beneficiaries of the estate making it VERY clear a property should be kept in the family for sentimental reasons she is insisting it be put on the market and has been showing strangers around when all of my grandmas personal belongings are still in there. A disgusting heartless firm and this will not be the end of the matter

Janet Turner and her team have been the best solicitors we have ever worked with and I’ve had the real range over the last few years with lots of family moves that I’ve headed. If I could choose one solicitor to handle every legal need we had: it would been Janet. Thank you.
