Client Testimonials

Thank you very much, I know I keep saying this but you have been absolutely fantastic with all your help, advice, support and energy. Thank you very much Michelle.

Mr S

Samantha Barker is a highly driven solicitor, who is passionate about client care. She goes over and beyond to serve her clients and is meticulous in preparation of highly sensitive and serious cases. I am always fully instructed by her within childcare family proceedings and find that her case management and follow up of the proceedings, is highly professional. Ms Barker is highly motivated in obtaining the best outcome for her clients.

Ben Earle, Barrister

Thank you for the order and for all the help in bringing my daughter back home. It has been the worst experience of my life and I couldn’t have got there without your professional help. You have been amazing. I will be forever grateful for everything.

Ms S

The service I received from Brighton and Hove Law, and from Lucy in particular, has been absolutely incredible and I can’t thank Lucy enough. She has been super professional, provided me with detailed and expert knowledge, explained everything to me really clearly, and been so reassuring and supportive at such a traumatic and stressful time. She is really kind, approachable, detailed and thorough, and always responded quickly and arranged calls and meetings at times to suit me, making me feel like nothing was too much trouble. I honestly couldn’t have got through the last 2 years without her.

Ms H

You all helped me through a really tough and stressful situation.  Thank you so much.

Mr M 

I must say you have been amazing throughout this process and we both are most grateful. I know it has not been the most straightforward of cases, but your understanding, flexibility and patience, along with your excellent communications have made it as pain free as could be possible. I will without doubt be recommending your services.

Mr F

I had a protracted and complicated divorce and I could not have wished for a better solicitor. The divorce process and all the associated financial negotiations are complex and come at a time when you are emotionally fraught, stressed and at a low ebb. Having a solicitor who is fair, firm and practical and clearly explained the options at every stage makes such a huge difference.

Lucy enabled me to balance getting the fairest settlement with retaining a workable relationship with my ex. There were no surprise, superfluous bills or actions taken that I wasn’t 100% comfortable with, which is so important.

She was available to chat on the phone and I far preferred dealing with one solicitor, who personally knew my case, rather than going via a larger firm where you do not receive such a focused, expedited approach.

I would 100% recommend Lucy to my closest friends and family.

Ms S – Hove
