I had an introductory session with Sam Carter from Major's regarding child care issues that are causing concern. The response to my request (for advice) was extremely quick, I was scheduled an appointment just three days from my initial approach. Reception was warm, friendly and relaxing. Most importantly Sam's advice on what courses of action were open to me, process, timelines and cost were well explained. His personal manor was open, honest and I felt like I was sharing my issue with a friend. My situation is still a 'Watch this space' but based on my experience to date, if I have to proceed further I will definitely be going to Major Family Law. More...

Thank you for the very professional support during my recent divorce. This professionalism was accompanied by kindness and understanding. My divorce was very difficult and, at times, traumatic, but Sam Carter and the team moved my case along efficiently from the start to hearing.
