Helping families resolve disputes fairly and respectfully without going to court

I instructed David as part of the process leading to the resolution of the financial aspects of my divorce. I found communication with him – by email, on the phone or in person – very straightforward and effective. I worked very close to David, as he was instructed through the Direct Access (DA) scheme, therefore allowing direct contact without the filter of a solicitor.

David was always happy to explain procedural issues to me and provided a great deal of guidance for court documents which in the DA scheme are prepared by the client rather than their solicitor. He was very effective in pushing the other party into a compromise, ultimately to my benefit. When an agreement was eventually found, he worked very hard to craft the final order so that resolution of future disagreements would be straightforward.

During the hearing, directions received from the judge reflected very much David’s expectations on the outcome of the case, therefore showing his great understanding of the legal process. He went out of his way to ensure a speedy resolution of the proceedings, reaching a resolution in a much shorter timeframe than what we expected. For this reason, I was very impressed by his dedication and I would wholeheartedly recommend him.
