Client Testimonials

Thank you very much Sarah – it feels really good that everything is done and dusted. I can’t believe it was so simple really – thank you for all your support!
I have been recommending you and will continue to do so.

Mrs D – East Sussex

Thank you for all your time and support over the last 2 years. I believe your expertise and advice has seen that we’ve had such a positive outcome and for that I will always be grateful.

Ms K

Sarah has been unfailingly professional and client focused throughout. Her enthusiasm and commitment to always providing the best legal advice and assistance to clients is unparalleled. I would have no hesitation in referring a friend or family to Sarah in the event of them having a family law issue.

Michael Valks, Barrister

Just wanted to say a massive thank you to you and the team – not the nicest of circumstances – but it was a real pleasure working with you, which resulted in the right outcome. You certainly kept me sane and my feet on the ground throughout the process. Finally, thank you for keeping my costs down. I have already recommended you to several people should they need any legal advice.

Mr S – East Sussex

Samantha Barker at Brighton and Hove Law conducts her cases with competent vigour which undoubtedly makes the role of our barristers seamless.

Steve Lavell, Director of Clerking

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

It is a breath of fresh air to encounter such a dedicated and experienced Family Law Team at Brighton and Hove Law who service a broad spectrum of family work, especially supporting and advising parents whose children are subject to public law proceedings. Their dedication to clients who require special care, support and protection is unrivalled. As part of that team, Samantha Barker shows a real depth of experience and knowledge of family law and will pursue cases boldly and vigorously often achieving positive results which at the outset looked very unlikely.

Mark Love, Head of Chambers

I have had the pleasure of working with Sarah on some very complex and difficult cases over the years. She never loses sight of the client’s objectives but makes sure they receive realistic and sensible advice. Her case preparation is excellent and she is always willing to go the extra mile when necessary. When I receive a brief from Sarah I know that the case will be conducted effectively and efficiently. She is a consummate professional and a delight to work with.
