FAMILY LAW

Sharla Munian, February 2026

Outstanding Legal Support and a Brilliant Result

“I cannot recommend RIAA Barker Gillette highly enough. My solicitor supported me throughout a very challenging property litigation matter, and thanks to her expertise, dedication, and strategic approach, we achieved a successful outcome. From the very beginning, my solicitor was professional, thorough, and incredibly reassuring. She took the time to explain every stage of the process clearly, ensuring I felt informed and confident in the decisions being made. Her attention to detail and strong advocacy were evident throughout, and she handled complex issues with both skill and determination. What truly stood out was her commitment and responsiveness – she was always available to answer questions and provided honest, practical advice when I needed it most. Property litigation can be stressful, but having such an experienced solicitor on my side made all the difference. I am extremely grateful for her hard work and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone in need of an exceptional solicitor.”

Molestation and occupation order

“I’ve found Pippa Marshall to be incredibly supportive, clear, and reassuring throughout a very difficult and complex situation. Her guidance has been precise, practical, and delivered with genuine care. She took the time to explain the process in detail, helped me understand the strengths and weaknesses in the case, and provided clear strategic advice that has made a huge difference to my confidence moving forward.

Pippa’s communication has been excellent — always calm, balanced, and focused on achieving the best possible outcome. She has been honest about what matters legally and has helped me stay grounded and prepared. I’m very grateful for her professionalism and the clarity she has brought to a stressful situation.

I would highly recommend Pippa Marshall to anyone needing strong, knowledgeable, and compassionate representation in family matters.”

“Outstanding family lawyer who came through for me in a difficult case.

In the world new to me of divorce and the aftermath, [Pippa Marshall] provided excellent advice from the first call and right through to conclusion.

She made a difficult experience bearable, was patient with me and offered realistic and accurate advice. While not an experience I ever want to live through again, I would whole heartedly recommend Pippa and her team.”

“I am currently separating from my wife and Pippa’s knowledge of the financial, legal and custody aspects regarding our children in our initial phone call were exemplary. She explained all the different options and possibilities that may arise at mediation or in the family courts clearly and was sympathetic throughout, whilst also telling me harsh truths when I needed to hear them. Thank you Pippa, I will certainly recommend you to others.”

“I’ve used RIAA for both Wills and Nuptial Agreements, as well as Deed in Trust. They are an intelligent and friendly group of people, looking out for their clients. The only ding is 1) change of attorneys mid-case due to the departure of previous and 2) an IT issue that delayed work for a few weeks. This is not the fault of the law firm so would still very much recommend.”

Audrey, June 2024

“I had my initial free consultation with Vandana Chitroda who was knowledgeable and excellent. When she left the firm, Pippa Marshall took over my case and together with Maheen Khalid, they both saw me through the remainder of my Divorce proceedings to an amicable end.

Pippa is competent, thorough, and knowledgeable and was spot on with her advice and together with Maheen Khalid who played an extremely important supporting role throughout.

James McMullan and Charlotte provided exceptional service with clear guidance on the preparation of my Will.

I highly recommend the Firm as I feel they will guide appropriately and endeavour for the best outcome for their client and I trust their advice completely. Whilst I do not wish the situation on anyone, but somehow if you do find yourself in this difficult position, these are the Team you can trust completely. Couldn’t recommend highly enough.”

David Delicata, April 2024

“I dealt with Pippa Marshall for my divorce, who was recommended to me by a friend who worked with Pippa for his complicated divorce. She was very professional and very informative. Pippa took her time to go through every aspect, and I really felt like she was fighting my corner. Unfortunately I became a widower before I became a divorcee, and when this happened Pippa was supportive and empathetic to the situation but remained professional at all times. I can’t recommend her highly enough.”
