Family Services

I am writing to thank your firm for the exemplary work they have conducted with regard to my divorce and subsequent sale of my property. Special mention to Alisdair Douglas, whose guidance, understanding and wise council has been of immeasurable help in somewhat testing circumstances, as well as the thoroughness and professionalism shown. I have no reservation recommending Leathes Prior to anyone seeking legal help.

Thank you again for the work you have carried out for me in my divorce. It has been very difficult for me due to the manner of the divorce but you have shown sympathy and kindness towards me and the situation I found myself in. Should somebody in the future need the services of a solicitor I will have no hesitation in recommending your practice.

The team at Leathes Prior is prompt and proactive, and explains the options clearly. Alisdair Douglas is very knowledgeable, and guides clients through the process in a caring way. He is one of Norfolk’s leading lawyers for complex divorce and Children Act matters.

I have worked with Alisdair for two years to complete a divorce process. I found him to be very professional and efficient and he looked after my interests throughout. He was efficient throughout and I would recommend him to anyone needing such legal advice. I see him as very professional and almost a friend when I needed one. He is an excellent lawyer and one that shows Leathes Prior in the best light and is an excellent partner to your business.

I just wanted to write to say how grateful I am for the service provided by Alisdair Douglas in my recent divorce. He was always professional, knowledgeable and emotionally sensitive and helped me and my ex partner reach a settlement in a amicable way despite difficult circumstances.

I found Laura and her colleagues guided me through my divorce with ease and without stress, during what was a very difficult time. Professional, diligent and always making me feel like I was important at that moment. I feel confident that during the whole process the team had my best interests in hand. Thank you once again.

They give sound and practical advice on a range of private client matters with some strong lawyers on their books.

Leathes Prior is outstanding, ethical and excellent value for money. Practice head Alisdair Douglas is one of Norfolk’s leading lawyers for divorce and private law proceedings under the Children Act. Rising star solicitor Simon Willis is an old head on young shoulders.

Just superb – great service, great communication, no gobbledegook.

As always excellent, courteous, prompt and professional service.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you very much indeed for all your work. Your courtesy and efficiency has been very much appreciated.

I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you for all your hard and professionalism throughout the proceedings. I always felt you were looking out for my best interests. It was a pleasure doing business with you and the company and will use you again should I need to and will recommend to others.

Excellent service and thorough responses.

I would just like to say that you have, over the past three years on this matter, looked after me exceptionally well. Thank you.

Leathes Prior’s Alisdair Douglas has a full grasp of what needs to be done. His team is easy to deal with, polite and courteous on all aspects of divorce, civil partnerships and Children Act matters.

Thank you very much for all your hard work and patience throughout the stressful process. I feel very fortunate to have instructed you as my solicitor.

One of the best local firms.

Exemplary service and clear and accurate advice. The firm advises on all aspects of private family law including divorce, financial remedy, private children matters, nuptial agreements, cohabitation disputes and non-molestation and occupation orders. Its financial relief cases often involve large incomes and pensions, interests in limited companies and assets derived from inheritance, trusts or bonuses.

Partner Alisdair Douglas leads the team and has almost 20 years’ experience in family law. He is an advanced member of the Family Law Panel, an accredited Resolution specialist in the areas of advanced financial provision and private children law, and a member of the Good Divorce Group in Norfolk. Associate Simon Willis is superb – he is always clear, on time and makes clients feel valued. The team also comprises Laura Savage and Carla Morphett.

It has been an absolute pleasure to work with Simon, who is professional, co-operative, open to different approaches whilst providing solid, common sense advice. With Simon’s support I have been able to process some of the case myself which resulted in much more cost effective outcome. I felt confident that I could reach out to Simon for just the right amount of support, when needed, and I am now certain that I would not have been able to have this kind of lawyer – client relationship elsewhere. I am hoping that I will not be needing Simon’s advice in future, however my experience with Leathes Prior has been so positive, that I will most certainly use your firm for any further legal advice or work I may be needing in future.
