Just to say thank you Aadil

My case has been ongoing for over ten years, since Aadil took over, he has worked so hard it is nearing the conclusion.
In every situation that arises, he would discuss it with me, explore options available to us, give his opinion about what he thinks is the best option going forward, but he would leave it to me to make the final decision.
Whenever I call him, he is always there for me, if not available immediately he would call me back.
I would describe Mr Aadil Khan as honest, transparent with a human touch.
He is rated as one that gives a five star service to his clients
Thank you Aadil Khan

Kulbir Rahi was extremely professional and gave insightful advice

I had the pleasure of working with Kulbir Rahi for legal advice regarding a Specific Issue Order and a Child Arrangement Order, where I was the respondent. Kulbir provided clear, tailored guidance that was specific to my situation, and her advice was always direct, insightful, and grounded in experience.

She was incredibly responsive and thorough—quick to understand the details of my case and provide practical, fact-based advice. What really stood out was her ability to pick up on nuances that aren’t always black and white. Her understanding of the finer points, often hidden between the lines, made a huge difference.

Communication with her was always smooth and professional, and I felt very supported throughout the process. I would highly recommend Kulbir Rahi to anyone needing expert legal support.

Always there for me, he is open and honest. Gave me what the courts would say even if it was something I didn't want to hear so I had context of the process.
Advised me of what to do next as I was doing most this myself and pointers in what direction I needed to go and timelines.
I definitely couldn't have got to where I am today without him even though it is still on going.
Thank you Aadil

Aadil has been great at helping me with my case. He has given great advice/options when I have asked, been prompt and clear with communication and he has also encouraged me to file papers/send emails myself so I’m not spending the earth. All in all I can’t fault anything that Aadil has done for me.

Regarding Dan Norris - Family Law

I just wanted to express my deepest gratitude to Dan Norris for his exceptional support and kindness over the past two years. Navigating through such a messy divorce was incredibly challenging, but your unwavering professionalism and empathy made a world of difference.

Your guidance and understanding provided me with the strength and clarity I needed during this difficult time. I truly appreciate the dedication and care you showed throughout the entire process.

I am now in my new house and finally have new beginnings

Thank you once again for being such a remarkable solicitor and for your invaluable support.

I wish you well for the future.

K J Smith Solicitors were the only solicitors (out of four) that gave me any optimism when first approached. This was a very welcome relief after having received a very bleak outlook from the other companies… thank you again [Karen Harvey] for your warmth and kindness

Thank you Robyn.

From the first meeting, Robyn exerted warmth and understanding. Her kindness, clarity of explanation and patient understanding of my emotional state encouraged me to ask her to represent me in my divorce proceedings. As the process has progressed, she has always listened to my concerns and intuition regarding my husband's plans. This meant she was able to take measures to protect me and bring about some action to the proceedings. Indeed, our decision has proved the right one as, otherwise, I would be in an even more difficult position and further away from any conclusion. She has been vigilant in her updates and recognised when I needed a phone call rather than an email, to reassure, explain and offer a pastoral care. I trust her implicitly and would recommend her to anyone requiring a family law solicitor

I was recommended to Arabella by my neighbour, who was also sadly going through a distressing Divorce. Arabella is excellent in all areas (especially so as I was very stressed) and was very calm, patient and careful with me and even just allowed me the space to have a few tantrums ! Special thanks also to Jessica Young who was also invaluable and supportive throughout the long 15 month period that it dragged on. Its all over now and I am relieved, but I definitely needed their experience to guide me through and I now feel I have almost made 2 new friends...Highly recommended. Paul Castle

If you're looking for an outstanding divorce solicitor who combines expertise with unwavering dedication, look no further than Robyn Bowyer, at K J Smith Solicitors. As the Partner and Head of the Southampton & Petersfield office, Robyn’s exceptional skill, professionalism, and commitment to her clients are second to none. From the moment I first contacted her, I knew I had made the best decision. Robyn doesn’t just provide legal services—she offers peace of mind and ensures that every aspect of your case is handled with the utmost care and attention. If you do nothing else, book an appointment with Robyn before you consider any other solicitor. Robyn works tirelessly, she is fair, firm, and genuinely committed to securing the best possible outcome for her clients.

Here is my experience…

I found Robyn by chance after enduring a year of utter frustration with another solicitor who made little progress on my divorce. A friend, already a client of Robyn's, spoke so highly of her—describing her as clear, decisive, and immensely professional.

Although I was initially hesitant about switching solicitors, worried that a new solicitor might make my divorce matters worse, from the very first meeting with Robyn, I felt an immense sense of relief. She offered to meet me in person, which was such a refreshing and reassuring change. Instantly, I knew I had made the right choice. Robyn’s professional yet warm and approachable manner made me feel not only understood but completely confident in her abilities.

Unlike my previous solicitor, Robyn was incredibly efficient and explained everything with such clarity. Her swift action, attention to detail, and unwavering follow-through were a complete contrast to the previous experience. She didn’t waste any time, and every step forward felt like genuine progress. For the first time, I felt like my case truly mattered.

Robyn masterfully navigated the complexities of my divorce, which, while not overly complicated, was hindered by communication issues and slow progress. Thanks to her extensive experience as a former barrister, she immediately grasped the bigger picture and adopted a clear, strategic approach that ensured everything moved forward without unnecessary delays. True to her word, Robyn's timely interventions ensured that we avoided the need for court appearances altogether—something I had feared might be unavoidable.

But it wasn’t just Robyn—her team was nothing short of exceptional. Lydia Anson, Robyn’s trainee solicitor, was brilliant—responsive, efficient, and incredibly organised. Together, they provided seamless, thoughtful support that made the entire process far less stressful than I could have ever imagined. Thanks to Robyn’s leadership and guidance, the matter was resolved with a settlement far better than I had ever hoped for.

From the moment I instructed Robyn, my stress levels dropped significantly. She is not only an outstanding solicitor but a compassionate and empathetic individual who truly cares about her clients. Choosing Robyn and her team has been one of the best investments I’ve made for my future. I regret every penny spent with my previous solicitor, but Robyn’s expertise, coupled with her fantastic team, was worth every single penny.

Dealing with KJ Smith has been great, the team has been nothing short of excellent. I wholeheartedly recommend Ed Morton and his paralegal, Joe Garside, for anyone navigating a difficult divorce. Their exceptional support, understanding, and diligence were instrumental in resolving my challenging case.

From the outset, Ed demonstrated a remarkable level of personal understanding and provided constant, unwavering support that was invaluable during such a trying time. Critically, Ed constantly demonstrated a deep understanding of the legal process and what is reasonable in the eyes of the court. This expertise was key in guiding us towards a fair and equitable outcome.

What truly set Ed apart was his consistent availability; he was always on hand to answer my questions and address any concerns, no matter how small. He and his team, particularly Joe, worked diligently and collaboratively to navigate the complexities of my case. Their commitment to finding a workable solution, grounded in that legal understanding, was evident throughout, and I am so relieved that they were able to achieve a resolution that brought the matter to a close.

Ed's clear and consistent communication was a significant factor in making this arduous process much more manageable. He explained things in a way I could understand and kept me informed every step of the way.

If you are facing the complexities of a divorce, I cannot recommend Ed and Joe highly enough. Their professionalism, legal acumen, diligence, and compassionate approach truly made a difference.
