Testimonials

Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.

• ‘Excellent communication between team members, lawyers and support staff. The team is clearly very used to working together. Nothing fell through the gaps. I felt reassured that the team had my back. The new premises at Circle Square are fantastic - spacious, welcoming, friendly. The reception staff are wonderful. The tech is great - enabling remote conferences, hearings, lengthy meetings in comfort.’
• ‘Alison Bull the partner in charge of my case was exceptional. She accompanied me through several years of a complex, difficult and fractious divorce and was a tower of strength. She was compassionate, emotionally intelligent and focussed on the end goal. She has exceptional attention to detail and is an excellent manager of her team. I cannot praise Alison highly enough. Rose Marie Drury was an exceptional associate.'
• ‘Sue Brookes was outstanding and I cannot praise her enough for approach and advice which was invaluable and provided me with confidence that the process had a clearly defined end and the likely responses from the other side. I felt I was informed and supported at all times.’
• ‘Andrew Moore has dedicated himself to my families highly complex case of parental alienation with complex financial proceedings. Andy has exceeded all of my expectations and I cannot thank him enough.’
• ‘The team are well known for their commitment to ADR options such as mediation (including lawyer assisted mediation), collaborative law, arbitration and other out-of-court options. They have also introduced a one lawyer-two clients model.’
• ‘Alison Bull is a pragmatic lawyer who has a great grasp of the details of a case. Nigel Shepherd is one of the most well known family lawyers in the North West who has been critical in leading the campaign for no-fault divorce. Andrew Moore is incredibly well liked by clients and his peers and is takes a thoughtful and sensible approach to cases.’
• ‘What stands out to me is the firm's approach to dispute resolution in all forms. Whether that's mediation, their newly developed one lawyer two clients offering, or in the way in which they conduct their litigation. Even in highly contentious cases, there is an appropriate level of collaboration.
• ‘I was instructed last year by Rose-Marie Drury on a difficult case in which our client was the beneficiary of a substantial family trust against which her husband was trying to make a claim on divorce. I was hugely impressed not only with her legal analysis but also the sensible, pragmatic advice which meant that it was possible to navigate a negotiated settlement on favourable terms, at minimum financial and emotional expense.’
