Testimonials

  • ‘I went looking for legal representation that had demonstrable experience with children with disabilities AND that I could trust and work with in what was likely to be a very difficult case. I called around a number of firms, but LGFL stood out. It was clear that I would be in capable hands, but also ones that would work collaboratively with me and the other side in the best interests of my children.'

  • ‘Rita Gupta has been outstanding. She has been an excellent guide through the divorce journey and has helped me not only understand the process but also how to focus on the things that matter and keep a collaborative and child-focused approach throughout.'

  • ‘LG Family Lawyers is a boutique-style practice that offers top-tier advice in a friendly, approachable manner. The firm is a small but powerful outfit that can match any top-tier London/national family solicitors. If a friend or family member had a family law dispute and required legal advice and representation, I would not hesitate to recommend this firm. They are really that good!'
