Additional Feedback
Divorce Finances
"A team of supportive professionals who knew the procedures and were accessible at times when I was in extreme stress. Accessible and working in the early evenings and the weekends. I really appreciated the support and advice throughout the whole process." Mrs D
"I had a cross border divorce issue. Sandra helped me to avoid making a costly misstep and got me pointed in the right direction. Thanks to Sandra’s professionalism and knowledge, I have saved myself from what could have amounted to a significant problem." Mr D
“Leanne, I just wanted to say thank you for everything you did to get me through it all. Knowing you would always keep me informed of progress was reassuring when I felt like things would never come to an end. I'm sure you have much more challenging cases than mine but it was difficult enough for me! I can now begin to move on with my life. Thank you again”. Ms T
“I had the luck to have Peter on my side. The type of divorce that should not go through the courts as mentioned by couple of judges, but dealing with inflictive controlling spouse, there was no other way. Peter helped me to guide me through the storm, always trying to find solution while courageously balancing the imbalance in relationship. Peter has been recommended to me and I am gladly passing the recommendation on”.
"Thank you for your patience and willingness to see it through to the end. You managed to get me a settlement that for a long time I didn’t think would be possible-much appreciated." Mrs S
"I would very much like to thank Peter Dadswell for all his support in helping me navigate throughout what has been an extremely stressful process. It is not a journey I chose to travel through, but from our first meeting to discuss my situation and having his honest, knowledgeable and guiding support throughout is something that I will never be able to thank him enough for."
"Leanne and Jessica were amazing in helping me with my divorce. I was immediately put at ease and kept updated throughout the whole process. All questions I asked were answered and the process was slick. The outcome was also what I was looking for."
"Sandra must see the worst that one person can do and say to another once the love has died, and yet she remains constantly upbeat and positive. Her eye for detail ensures that she always has your best interests at heart in order to find a fair and equitable path for you. I was very glad that she was working with me rather than against me." Mr F
"Thank you so much for all you’ve done for me, I’m so grateful – you’ve been really efficient and also a great support when I needed it." Mrs F
"Thank you Leanne and all the team at Acclaimed Family Law for dealing with my case in such a friendly and professional manner, during a very difficult period in my life." Mr M
"I initially sought advice from a solicitor at a large family department in Sheffield, where I was advised I had no hope of obtaining a financial settlement. I was despondent and then a friend recommended I saw Michelle, thank goodness I did, I am now looking at six figure sum in financial settlement. Words cannot describe how grateful I am”.
"Michelle helped me all the way through. Her communication skills were excellent, she made everything so clear for me to understand, her knowledge is incredible. Michelle pushed and pushed the other side, who were being obstructive at times. I felt that I could contact Michelle at any time if I was struggling with anything and she gave me clear concise advise. Both Michelle and her team were amazing. Thanks to Michelle I can move on and start a new life." Mrs B
"I was concerned that due to the long length of my marriage and relative complexity of our finances, which combined personal and business assets on both sides, that I needed a solicitor with some experience of understanding and untangling personal and small business finance.
Michelle was very understanding and listened carefully to me as I explained my situation, she explained my options to me in a very clear way and explained what would happen depending on which option I chose. She came across straightaway as someone who had great knowledge of her job. I haven’t had any previous experience on getting divorced (thankfully) but the solicitor that my ex used was very slow and I got the impression it was just a job to them which made me so grateful that I had a firm that cared at what was a very emotional and stressful time for me. Michelle’s assistant Jill Raine was also excellent, she kept me informed at every stage and nothing seemed too much trouble." Mr L

"Sandra was absolutely amazing! From the word go, she was understanding, clear about the legal issues and what needed to be done and to the point. Her help and guidance were second to none, and I felt completely trusting and able to follow every piece of advice.
Sandra is both personable and approachable and puts you at ease with the situation that you may face. I cannot recommend Sandra highly enough and all the team at Acclaimed Family Law." Mrs B
"I couldn't recommend Peter Dadswell enough. He's been outstanding throughout. In very difficult circumstances and through the toughest times of my life. It’s been reassuring knowing I've had Peter in my corner. Advising me on what I should and shouldn't be doing but also making me aware of the financial costs on a regular basis so I didn't insure any unexpected costs. I'm sure my estranged wife in hindsight wishes she had got Peter before me."
"I have been involved in a long drawn out divorce and chose Leanne Barton to represent me. I can honestly say she is a first class solicitor and her knowledge has been invaluable to me. To say it has been a testing divorce is an understatement and Leanne’s calmness and communication skills have been first class throughout and would have no hesitation in recommending her moving forward. Thank you Leanne."
"Sandra explained from the outset the potential path likely to be achieved based on circumstances and my values. Developed an open approach to reaching agreement for both parties based on fairness with the children's care central to the settlement. Most importantly maintained focus and a sense of professionalism during a difficult time for both divorcing parties including meeting challenging deadlines and demonstrating genuine commitment to a sensible outcome." MR M
"I was looking for help to clarify the details of a child arrangement order and advice relating to an enforcement order that had been brought against me (for no good reason).
Sandra was quick to arrange an urgent telephone meeting over the New Year period. She was efficient and accurate in her advice about the child arrangement order which gave me immediate reassurance. Her advice about the enforcement order displayed strong technical skills and an ability to get to the heart of the matter without wasting valuable appointment time." Mrs J

"I've had lots of dealings with Michelle's PA, Jill Raine. Who is has been very efficient, supportive and friendly.
