Stowe Family Law - Sheffield Recensioni 

I had been faced with court papers served, which were some what confusing and distressing. I contacted Stowe, and met with Aimee McKay, who I must admit calmed me and reassured me when she started speaking over the papers. She was honest and upfront about costs and the challenges I may face but gave me the confidence to pursue the case with her. After a period of near 14 weeks and and two court appearances, I have managed to get the outcome that was best for me and my son…I must also add that the barrister, Patrick was a must have he was calm and collected and very reassuring. First rate service throughout.

I chose Stowe Family Law, albeit in somewhat of a hurry off the back of previous reviews here on Trustpilot and it has proven to be a worthwhile choice.
The solicitor assigned to my case was Bal Boughan, and she and the team supporting her have been nothing short of fantastic.
At all times they have taken the time to fully explain the process, ensure that I understand what needs to be done and have been available to discuss matters face to face at relatively short notice.
Bal is a consummate professional and clearly will do her utmost to get what is best for her clients interest and it has been a pleasure in all my dealings with her. I would not hesitate in recommending her to anyone who requires the services of a Family Law practitioner.

Bal & Billie at Stowe in Sheffield helped me with the financial side of my divorce. Everything was done via email which is very convenient as i work full time so would have found phone calls/meetings difficult to fit in. They explained everything in a way so i could understand and always kept me updated with the progress at each stage. The advice given was really helpful and they always gave me every available option when it came down to decision making so i could make my own informed decisions. I found both Bal & Bille to be very empathetic and would recommend their services to anybody.

My cases have both just finished after 20+ months and I can honestly say I could not have done it on my own. Jake is an absolute credit to his profession and company he has always gone out of his way to give me the advice I needed to hear even if it wasn’t what I wanted to hear. He has a great rapport and sense of humour to boot which when your going through family court is a great help to lighten the mood. The team behind Jake was always there when I needed them when he couldn’t help either due to having a holiday or been in court. But he would always follow up with me as soon as he was able to. I cannot thank him enough the emotional stress and financial pressure the whole family court process puts on people is hard, but Jake always has at the forefront of his mind. I cannot thank Jake and his team enough for the support and willingness to go the extra mile over the last 20+ months.

Thanks Stuart

The solicitors are very professional and have helped me navigate through a very stressful time. They are very open and honest and explain how much things will cost so I have full information before making a decision. I would highly recommend.

professionalism, friendly and efficient.
A huge thanks to Billie Miles-Berry and all the team.

I first spoke with a legal secretary to assess my case (child arrangement), he was very professional and informative. I then had an initial strategy meeting with Rachael Harwin, who was excellent: knowledgeable, personable and patient. Rachael could not take new clients and I have had the pleasure of having Billie Miles-Berry as my solicitor for the past few months. Billie is personable and compassionate, incredibly professional and thorough and has helped immeasurably: not least in getting me access to my son when my ex-partner tried to stop contact; guiding me through mediation and spurious accusations from my ex-partner and guiding me through the moral and legal justification for my position.

Rachael Harwin and her team provided exceptional representation during my divorce and financial agreement proceedings. Their expertise, professionalism, empathy, and strategic approach made a significant difference in the outcome of my case. I am incredibly grateful for their support and highly recommend their services to anyone in need of top-notch legal representation.

I am currently going through a difficult divorce and my solicitor has been throughout Rachael Harwin. Rachael although a new member of the Stowe Family Law team when she took on my case, has proven her worth and is currently and always has been professional, attentive, keeping me up to date regarding all developments and supported me throughout all the inevitable twists and turns. I feel I could not be in better hands and I am extremely happy in my choose of Stowe and that I have Rachael guiding and supporting me through this extremely hard and difficult process.

Rachael Harwin looked after me very well, being dyslexic she was very patient with my form filling abilities (or lack of them) she remained professional throughout with just the right amount of empathy for the situation she’s definitely one of the best and I should know sadly it’s my third time.

Charlotte Topliss called me also send me very helpful links. It was so nice to speak with her as she was very helpful.

I was represented by Jake Mitchell.
Jake was absolutely outstanding from start to finish. He was attentive, professional, pragmatic, and straight talking. At no point did I ever feel like just another client. He was never more than a phone call away. While my expectations were always managed professionally, I was filled with confidence for a positive outcome right from the outset, and rightly so, that's exactly what we got.
I can't thank Jake and his team enough for the experiences I will now have the opportunity to fully enjoy with my children.

Initially supported by Maria and more latterly Sarah, I am really grateful for the support I have been given throughout the process. I know for the team it was probably a simple case, but for me particularly at the start it was scary, unknown and at times emotionally difficult. I have felt like someone has been holding my hand throughout and given me solid advice and knowledge at all stages of the process.

Ella has been extremely helpful and explained matters very clearly to me. She has responded to my queries without delay and provided advice and assistance in resolving a seemingly impossible situation that I had been stuck with for 16 years! It took Ella and the team at Stowe Family Law in Sheffield just 4 months to complete my case and would have been quicker had a third party been quicker to respond! I am so very relieved and grateful - thank you so much.

I made an online enquiry and booked a call back between 12-1pm for Wednesday 22 February. I was called on the day and within the time arranged but unfortunately due to work demands I missed the call. I promptly received an email and rescheduled for the following day. I missed this call, again due to work, but rang back still within my time slot and had a supportive call with Teresa from the client care team. I then booked an options call with solicitor Rachael Harwin from the Sheffield office on Friday 26 February at 12pm. Unfortunately Rachael never called. I contacted the client care team just prior to 1pm to advise of this and have not, to date, received any further communication. With a minimum fee of £400-£900 I would like to feel reassured that my solicitors are reliable and responsive to start in what is already an emotional and difficult situation. Unfortunately this has not been my experience.

I had to go through a particularly difficult divorce with aggressive demands from the other party who were the areas main solicitor group.
I Googled solicitors in Yorkshire and after reading reviews i chose Stowe and was represented by Maria Costa , due to her knowledge , expertise and diligence the result was better than i thought i would achieve at the start of the Journey.
Marias assistant Melanie was fantastic also ,an absolute star , nothing was ever too much for her to do to help , she was efficient and extremely bubbly which helped massively at a difficult time.
I found these 2 from these reviews and hope my review will help others looking for 5 star representation.

I contacted Stowe regarding drafting a consent order. I requested a call back to get some free advice and was assigned Charlotte Newman. She was very friendly and put me at ease on the phone. There was no pressure at any time to continue using their services after I had received the free advice but Charlotte definitely knew her stuff and I felt like I'd be in good hands so I asked them to proceed. Both Charlotte and her assistant Alison were very quick and efficient and always on hand either via email or phone to answer any queries I had. I'm very happy with the service they provided.

Hi Stowe Family Law, thankyou for all you have done supporting me through a very difficult case. As a company you listened, supported, provided clarity and direction with every communication, across all departments of your organisation.

I would like to comment specifically on Maria Coster, who provided a most excellent service. Listening, understanding and supporting me was absolutely critical, approaching a legal situation for the first time with the emotion of children involved was very much outside of my comfort zone. Maria gave me the confidence through her sound knowledge, court room etiquette and clarity, to walk step by step into and through the legal processes, providing the most on point, accurate, clear and rational direction with tenacity where needed. Building a rapport with Maria was very easy, this probably is one of the greatest skills for any professional to excel in. This was very much a journey with an excellent support network and made me feel like a valued person at every interaction.

Stowe Family Law and Maria Coster through excellent legal advice, emotional support and learning gave me back the confidence i needed and could not recommend them highly enough

Maria Coster:

I have never had any inclination, nor desire to write a review on any matter prior to my experience of working with Maria Coster.

Maria is an exceptionally rare and refreshing talent.

Maria is highly intelligent, and an experienced professional within the field of family law.
Maria is astute, and pragmatic in her approach and she is a credit to Stowe Family Law, but more importantly, a credit to herself and to anyone that she works with.

Together, we have navigated our way through extremely challenging divorce proceedings, financial proceedings as well as ongoing child matters.

Throughout these matters, Maria has combined her sound legal expertise in a professional and diligent manner, whilst taking the time and effort to build a relationship on a compassionate and human level.

I do not hesitate in recommending Maria to anybody seeking legal expertise and representation in family matters.
