Very happy with Harrogate Family Law and Laura Mounsey

Really happy with the support and advice from Harrogate Family Law over an extended period and dealing with a complex and challenging situation. Laura was great to deal with, very knowledgeable and astute, and an enormous help in securing the desired outcomes for me and my family.

Thank you for fighting my corner

Just want to express how wonderful Laura has been throughout. I changed solicitors as didnt feel at all supported or that anyone was fighting my corner and im so glad I did. Laura Martin was also fab yesterday, very calm and a nice energy to have around on a day like that.

Compassionate, knowledgeable, helpful, proactive and bold

I would definitely recommend Emily and the team at Harrogate Family Law to anyone who is going through the heartbreak of child arrangements in a toxic divorce with a difficult ex partner. Emily and all the staff at HFL are friendly and helpful and go beyond the legal support. Every time I called Emily in a panic because of some new development or some grenade dropped by my ex, Emily would think critically and clearly, propose a strategy and be a calming influence. I wouldn't be exaggerating to say that Emily and the staff at HFL including Isabel who I spoke to a few times have helped me hold on during a very difficult situation. Without their support I would have gone under emotionally and mentally. They combine good knowledge and strategy with empathy, support and validation. I would definitely recommend Emily and HFL to anyone going through this heartbreak.

Friendly, supportive and practical

I just want to place on record my thanks for all your support through this process. As you can imagine, this was a devastating and life changing time for me and your availability, friendliness and practical guidance and reassaurance helped me through it and gave me hope on some of the darkest days. I will definitely update you on the outcomes and when this nightmare is over I would still like to pay a visit to your offices with the children so you can meet them, whom you have helped and whose lives and futures are at the centre of all this turmoil and hate

Complicated Divorce

After leaving a toxic, traumatic marriage, I started this process at rock bottom, believing I was worthless and not entitled to anything.
Laura Mounsey has been amazing, she’s a true professional, communicating with empathy but applying her logical thinking and no-nonsense attitude; she’s a real inspiration. Laura Martin has also been brilliant, with her friendly, reassuring and calming manner. Between them, they have not only secured me a great settlement but also helped me to regain my confidence and strength.
Having read some other reviews, I would agree HFL are probably not the cheapest of options but I can now look forward to the future and that’s thanks to the two Laura’s and the rest of the team. Although my journey is not quite over, I am slowly getting my life back and I know I am in safe hands - for that peace of mind, it is definitely worth it.

Childcare issues

Laura helped me with a complicated and contentious situation, regarding child maintenance and disability benefits being withheld by my ex wife. She wrote a low conflict letter to try and resolve the situation, and whilst not completely over, I'm happy I have a path forward with the situation.

Thank you so much. Its been a really difficult time, but I know the outcome is so much better than it would have been if I had listened to him, rather than you. Thanks for every time you said it was against your advice Laura. Im truly thankful.

I would highly recommend HFL, in particular Andrew Meehan and Rebekah Maher. They both supported and guided me through a divorce that took the best part of 2 years, giving explanations throughout the process that I could understand. They were both understanding of my personal situation and my worries, they both brought about a positive conclusion. Rebekah supported me and my barrister in court when it over ran massively, with Andrew on hand on the phone in the office. I'm assuming Rebekah would have had to rearrange the rest of her day, but never once did she make it seem like an issue. Even last week after the divorce was sorted Rebekah helped me with an issue and educated me on how to manage it myself in future.
Hfl in my view went above and beyond to support me through some very stressful times and I couldn't recommend them enough.

Harrogate Family Law were instructed on my behalf for family court proceedings. My case was exceptionally complex, challenging and as described by another top London legal practise as a case in the 1%.
Laura Mounsey is an exceptional family law solicitor. She is a kind, caring and compassionate lady who continually goes above and beyond with her clients. There are no words to describe my gratitude for finding Laura during the most challenging period of my life.
Laura Mounsey, is without doubt, one of the top family lawyers in the country. She is professional, highly intelligent, her attention to detail is incredible and her understanding of the law is impressive. Laura is always looking for a positive path for her clients even in the most difficult times.
Laura Mounsey helped secure a relocation on my behalf for my children and myself. Through difficult times she was the kindest and most compassionate advisor I could have asked for. She believed in me when I had even stopped believing in myself which is sadly a point of prolonged litigation. Laura truly is the light at the end of the tunnel in complex family law litigation. I cannot recommend Laura Mounsey highly enough, she is in a league of her own.

I couldn’t have gotten through the last 18 months without the wonderful team at HFL, especially Laura and Becky. Their expertise, contacts, empathy, patience, understanding for all the nuances of complex family law situations has been invaluable. They have been behind me the whole journey, literally cheering me on in all the challenges I’ve faced through my journey. Their attention to detail, care and thoughtfulness have been incredible. I’m so very grateful I found their team to help me through this tough season of my life.

As a solicitor who deals in a specialist field, I know how important it is to refer clients to the right place if they come to me with an issue in a different area of law. In the family law field, my first port of call is Harrogate Family Law, where I know that they will receive the best service and legal advice. In particular, Laura Mounsey is very approachable, knowledgeable and takes a proactive grip of tough cases.
