Family

Thank you for everything; you were incredibly professional, yet down-to-earth, and made court considerably easier. I will recommend this firm; I'm very impressed.

Thank you again for all your support with everything, the legal advice you have given me has been exceptional and highly appreciated.

Ellie Davies has been excellent from start to finish, much like all of the team at Leathes Prior who I find to be very personable and professional. Thanks for all your help.

Would really recommend Leathes Prior, Ellie Davies has been brilliant from start to finish - professional, prompt and personable throughout and offered a lot of support through a very stressful time.

I recently worked with Ellie at Leathes Prior on my divorce, and I couldn’t be more grateful for her support. Throughout the process she was incredibly knowledgeable, compassionate, and always there to guide me when things felt overwhelming. Ellie responded quickly to every email and handled my case with genuine care and professionalism. I’d highly recommend Ellie.

I had Ellie represent me in a family court manner involving contact arrangements for my daughter. Ellie was concise and articulate in court, ultimately gaining me an extended contact period with my daughter and securing a court ruling allowing me to take my daughter on holiday. I would recommend Ellie to anyone involved in a family court matter.

Simon Willis has represented myself twice in a fairly nasty and complicated family court matter. I found Simon very calm, very knowledgable, very realistic and very supportive. I was successful in my court hearing at gaining greater access and contact with my daughter. I would highly recommend Simon Willis to anybody wanting practical and pragmatic legal representation.

Simon and Ellie provided excellent support and professional advice, in what was a very difficult, uncertain and highly charged process. They were extremely responsive to any queries that I had, making time to speak to me in person, over the phone or via email. Both Simon and Ellie assisted greatly in supporting me emotionally. I am very grateful for all their work.

I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank you for your outstanding work throughout the divorce process and the financial agreement. Your professionalism, guidance, and support helped me through one of the most difficult periods of my life, and I am extremely grateful for the care and dedication you showed at every stage. Thank you again for everything you have done.

Thank you so much for your support and advice throughout this long process!! You’ve been amazing, always answered any questions or worries I had. Can’t believe we have finally got there! You’ve really helped me to move forward in my life and can now look forward to the future. I will definitely bear you in mind for the future if needed and will absolutely recommend your services to anyone!!

Wanted to say a big thank you for all your help! Just to make you aware that I have recommended you to a friend who is in a similar position, as I was hugely impressed with the way you dealt with the situation, I really felt like you understood the case, and wanted the best for my children which primarily was my concern!

I am beyond grateful for all Ellie has done for me. Professional, responsive, understanding, kind, very caring is a brief summary. When away Ellie ensured my case was handed over and nothing paused. Ellie kept me informed of the progress of my case. Ellie made me feel I always had someone on my side who understood the difficulty I had and was having. For this I consider Ellie my hero.

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. I have no reservations recommending Leathes Prior to anyone seeking legal help.

Simon was very professional and so knowledgeable. Everyone I dealt with at Leathes Prior was professional and compassionate which took some of the stress of the situation off me. I wish I never had to go through the process but I’m so glad I chose your firm. I am thankful I picked Simon.

Leathes Prior’s team is helpful and professional. Resolution-accredited Alisdair Douglas and rising star Simon Willis excel in divorce, financial remedy and private Children Act matters.

I was impressed with Simons professionalism throughout my journey. Simon was calm and collective and advised me appropriately throughout. When I was down Simon gave me hope. Simon had an awkward task with my case from many obstacles being put in my way. Simon gave 110% all the time. I was impressed with Simon's presentation skills within court and his overall professionalism.

Thank you Ellie for your support in working through this with me, you have always been clear and helpful and made this process very easy. I wouldn't hesitate in using Leathes Prior again for any other legal matters and would recommend to others.

That's absolutely brilliant, I'm so pleased. I really cannot thank you enough for your hard work, expertise and clear guidance in handling this matter.

I want to express my deepest gratitude for all the support I received from you all. I was really pleased that the Court granted mostly all that I requested for. The court order from this final hearing has made the year 2023 a very special year to me. My parental rights means the world to me and I was very pleased about the outcome of the hearing. Thank you all so much. I am very grateful indeed.

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.

You've really been excellent Simon and I have to thank you for your dedication and ability to cut away the fluff and get to the matters of importance. I've really appreciated your skills and general self in my corner throughout. A wholehearted thank you.

I instructed Leathes Prior for my recent divorce. Luckily for me, I was assigned to Ellie who is an absolute gem. She's friendly, professional, replies promptly and handled my case with care, integrity and compassion. I'd highly recommend her to anyone needing expert advice delivered in a gentle way. Thanks Ellie.

I can’t thank Ellie enough for her support. She brought calm, clarity and reassurance throughout. She is professional and thorough, and always takes the time to explain things properly, which made a huge difference to me.
