Mark Paterson, August 2021

“I came to this firm in the middle of a very aggressive and unilateral divorce that had been pre-planned for months, possibly years. I was blindsided. Completely in shock, I made a poor choice in hiring a local firm of generalists who did family law. They were expensive and completely outgunned by the other side. In the end, I dismissed them because all they had was a programme of guided surrender. Changing solicitors half way through was risky, but it changed everything for me. I had someone on my side and someone who was prepared to tackle the tactics and abuse that the other side were using regularly. There can be no doubt that the settlement I ended up with was a lot better than what would have happened if I had stuck with my original solicitors.”
