I was represented by Stowe Family Law and partner James Scarborough through a very protracted and difficult divorce that culminated during the pandemic. Prior to discovering James, I had been let down my former legal practice who had not filed my papers to the court on time. I had also approached several local solicitors who didn't return my calls or were "too busy" to take on another case. So, it was with great relief that eventually I found James (by thorough research across the net), who I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending. James is a consummate professional. He is extremely diligent, prompt, thorough and his advice is considered, thoughtful and balanced. When I compare his performance with my former practice and the legal opposition team, he is undoubtedly streaks ahead. Five stars. More...

Professional and constructive handling of my family law matter which ran for a number of years, good to have the continuity throughout. Initiative when needed, and cool heads when mine was overly swayed by emotion. One minor billing hiccup in an otherwise smooth engagement, many thanks to all at Stowe. More...

My grateful thanks to Gavin and Ciara for stepping in at very much the last minute for my hearing. I am still amazed at how they both wholly picked up my case as though they’d been on it since the beginning. From the moment I spoke with Ciara on the phone, I felt not only supported but protected from the barrage of emails and post coming at me several times a day from the other party. Their kindness truly rescued me and enabled me, albeit very shakily, to get through the hearing. Their choice of barrister was spot on. What a lovely person Lucy is and with their instruction she represented me as well as I could have hoped for and with a successful outcome. More...

My case was managed by the superb ESTELLA.She provided first class advice and service and was seriously impressive when it came to preperation and presentation. Even more importantly, ESTELLA was miles ahead of the other side when it came to the big day.I would also like to to highlight, that I especially appreciated her words of encouragement when I felt like giving up and her patience when explaining legal terminology and breaking it down as to what it meant for my case.I don't usually bother with reviews - but in this instance I feel I should.Thank you so much!!!

Stowe family Law assisted in my divorce, I found my solicitor in particular to be very prompt in their responses, knowledgeable in their area and always gave sound advice. I wasn't able to get my 100% desired outcome but I do think that was more due to the biases of the court systems rather than the solicitors ability. If you require legal assistance in a family matter, I would recommend Stowe, they are higher in price than other firms but you are paying for a quality service. More...

I have had some quite complex and serious issues that led to a child custody case, I contacted Stowe and luckily for me I was represented by Jennifer Reddy. Throughout the proceedings Jennifer has been an absolute God send, very friendly as she made me comfortable and it was as if I'd known her for a long time, she was very professional and responsive.I believe she went above and beyond for me and my children, even though it looked liked the odds were stacked against me somehow she managed to turn things around and gain me full custody of my children.Words can not express how grateful I am to this amazing woman and how lucky I feel to have had her helping me throughout this very difficult period. I would certainly use Stowe again in the future and Jennifer Reddy without a doubt!Thank you so much Jennifer, you have improved all of our lives. More...
