Family Law Group Reviews 

Wow. When you ask God for help, he sends you an angel. Keri-Anne Bradley At the family law group not only showed me genuine care, but she was straight with me. She took my case on even with a huge work load from other areas because she was genuinely concerned for my children and she put them first the whole way through. I felt safe with her and the trust was instantly there which I struggle with when it comes to solicitors to be honest! She got us the results we needed in an emergency situation and now my children are so much happier for it. The bar is set very high with this one!

Absolute angel, and extremely professional.

Thank you from me for your amazing service and my family would all like to say thank you as well!

⭐ 1 Star – Extremely Disappointing Experience

I would not recommend this lawyer based on my experience. When I first contacted him, he encouraged me to apply for the maximum $2,000 through Affirm and told me it would cover the legal help I needed. Unfortunately, most of what I ended up paying for were phone calls and text messages rather than actual legal work.

I had already completed much of the process myself, including filing the paperwork and obtaining proof of service. The case was ultimately dismissed, and the lawyer never appeared in court or handled any significant part of the case.

When I asked for professional advice, I rarely received clear direction. Instead of providing guidance, I was often told “whatever you want to do.” At times the calls even turned into conversations about his personal life, which felt inappropriate given that I was paying for legal consultation.

From my perspective, very little effort was made to review the statements in my case. I later learned that most of his involvement was simply speaking with the respondent and the respondent’s lawyer, which was presented as necessary for reaching an agreement.

I believe a lawyer should be direct, prepared, and transparent about what services they are providing and what clients are paying for. Unfortunately, I did not feel that level of professionalism in this situation, especially considering the cost of nearly $2,000.

If you are researching attorneys, I strongly encourage you to ask detailed questions about billing and services before agreeing to work with this offi

Im not usually the person to air my dirty laundry, however I approached this firm in regards to the local authority trying to remove our son due to my mental health an no support I chose to go with these as I was told they was really good sensitive an empathetic however this wasn't my experience, I had about 3 different solicitors in 6 months because they kept changing them and one of them at the time was a trainee so with me having to constantly explain again and again an to be told that they have a good case ect an that they have a placement for us this was never the case, please understand what I'm saying here you will be told what they need to tell you for you to keep composure however what U are told only has a 0.99% of actually happening. If you are looking for a solicitor that will be brutally honest with you and actually fight your case an stand tall with you then choose the solicitor firm scutt Beaumont and ask for Prakash modi the solicitors themselves are based in Leicester however they can help you if your not in that area I know this as this was the solicitor that we ended up using he is honestly the best no hidden agenda although he's brutally honest he will fight for what your asking so honestly don't let your children's future lay with this firm because you will loose your little ones go with Prakash modi you will stand a better chance. And let's not forget family law group details are on the back of the papers the local authority give you when they first tell you they are taking you to court don't ever go with the recommendation on the back of the letter!! It's not letting me put the original date but it was September 2021 it's been a while but I don't want any other parents to put there child's future in family law groups hand.

WORST FAMILY solicitors! do not go to this solicitor firm. They are so unprofessional, waste your time don’t do nothing for you. They are on social services side. Zoe North and her paralegal Aman Rajasansi don’t do nothing for you. So useless, please avoid at all cost do not go to this firm. They should be SHUT down immediately, worst solicitors ever!!! Please avoid!!!!

Terrible, do not use these people. They are very unprofessional.

The Family Law Group acted for my husband during our divorce. I had already endured 30 years of mental and physical abuse, but their involvement made things far worse. On their advice, my husband was told to record me 24/7 on his phone. This led to constant gaslighting, which pushed me into a serious mental health crisis.

I was even told I couldn’t have alcohol in my own home without the police being called, because of guidance given by their solicitor. Alongside the continued mental abuse, I was threatened with legal costs of over £3,000.

Thankfully, the judge saw through this behaviour, found in my favour, and ordered my husband to pay. But the damage caused in the process was significant.

No more to say the family law group is would definitely recommend. The mediators was very straight towards understand and supportive. I personally would say 10/10 service I did not had much time to find anyone my divorce case was complex. I had very fast booked appointment and in next day issued the Miam meeting.

Used the office in Milton Keynes
For a c100 application
Poor communication skills and I had to consistently chase .
Needed to use them again for the same matter and they promised a call back and never endeavored to return my call
Avoid at all costs .

I used Kim Tate for a child arrangements matter and a very complex non molisation matter which has fierce opposition from the local authority.

Kim reassured me by keeping me updated at all times, was available via phone in between hearings and made sure I had the right barristers in court.

Very dedicated solicitor and not afraid to do her research.

I would recommend anyone to Kim who is in private proceedings

AVOID AT ALL COSTS. Child was put in danger because the solicitors would not read the case notes the family provided and were clearly being manipulated by the court and social services into doing a bad job. This firm should be shut down for the sake of all children. DO NOT USE OR TRUST.

Harriet Hudson of Family Law Group assisted my ex partner in committing perjury and perverting the course of justice. She also brought criminal allegations to the Family court and saw me subjected to a secret criminal trial ignoring the Human Rights Act.
She then conspired with the judge to prevent me from being granted parental responsibility.
Absolute criminals.
Steer clear of any solicitors when dealing with family matters.

My ex wife who i haven't spoken to in 5 years used this firm to contact me demanding more in payment from me, a lot more and threatened to restrict my access to our 3 children and told me should i try to contact my children the police will be informed. On passing this letter to an actual solicitor it transpired that this was not legal as my rights as a father and the previous court case had already granted me access. This was simply greed from my ex wife and a solicitor who perpetuates this kind of nonsense for a cash payment are not only immoral but acting unethically in the name of profit. On a lighter note, the letter was riddled with typos and grammatical errors, so I'm pretty sure they're not exactly the A team of family law solicitors to begin with. Letter went into the bin and i continued my access and generous maintenance i already pay to look after them.

Dreadful. Avoid, particularly if you are on Legal Aid. Not one qualified solicitor looked at my case in the two years I was a client. Instead, I had various interns and a paralegal oversee my case. Constant mistakes, slow responses, no care whatsoever about your personal circumstances. Everytime I expressed concern about something, I was brushed aside. £10,000 paid to FLG and over two later and I'm still fighting my ex. Thankfully, I have an EXCELLENT solicitor now who clearly knows what she is doing. She has also agreed with me on the poor and vague advice given to me by FLG, now that she has seen my whole file. Her exact quote: "I don't understand how this has cost you £10,000 and you've gotten nothing for it except a Decree Absolut." Indeed. Next stop: Legal Ombudsman. And a call to the Legal Aid agency. They shouldn't be treating Legal Aid clients like third-class citizens.

I contacted Family Law Group after my case was severely compromised by a McKenzie friend.
At the time, I was extremely frustrated, as my case seemed irreparably damaged and unlikely to be recovered.
Fortunately, I found Alexandra, who, with her incredible calm, patience, and, above all, understanding of my distress, transformed my case from inevitable failure to a path toward better results.
Whereas the McKenzie friend promoted anger and conflict, solely aiming to extract as much money as possible from my pocket, Alexandra instead fostered peace and agreement. These qualities are paramount in court proceedings, especially concerning the well-being of children. Alexandra's approach was a guiding force during an already stressful and life-changing moment.
Furthermore, I found Family Law Group's fees to be competitive and worth every penny.
I am immensely grateful to Alexandra and the entire Family Law Group team for their hard work, understanding, and kindness throughout this challenging process. Thank you!

Absolutely appalling experience with this company. No communication at all for months from Natalie Symons and not even a reply to a letter in which she was asked if she did not want to represent us, please advise. I doubt whether any work at all was carried out on the case concerned.Frankly, i have never experienced anything like this. Disgraceful.

Julia Amson is an absolute superstar solicitor! After feeling disheartened when my first two solicitors left the company at the beginning of my divorce journey, Julia took over my case with professionalism and expertise. Despite facing a difficult divorce, Julia navigated every challenge with absolute perfection, securing an outcome for me and my children which was even better than I had hoped for. Her knowledge and dedication were evident throughout the entire process. I truly felt like I won the lottery when Julia took on my case. She very cleverly managed all the curveballs my ex-husband threw at us with finesse, ensuring that my rights were protected and my children's well-being was prioritised. I wholeheartedly recommend Julia to anyone facing a similar situation. Her support extended beyond just legal advice; she became a trusted confidante during a challenging time and I will always look back on that period of my life and appreciate how well I was supported. Julia is the solicitor you want by your side when facing such significant life challenges. I can't thank her enough for all she's done for me and my family.

Terrible company. Wish I could give no stars. My partner is going through a divorce. All this company want is money money money. Been going on for nearly two years and still not sorted but nearly £40000 down the drain. Send emails and they don’t respond except when the next bill is due even though he is in credit. Has to send stuff and when he asks for stuff gets nothing.

Tillie Shannon instructed my manipulative and abusive ex-wife to cut my access to my children, even though a judge had already assessed it as appropriate. After sending over 90 pictures, a social services report showing the abuse my ex partner has done to our children and myself over the last 12 years they have decided not to answer me about this in over a week. She managed to answer me quick enough when an abuser wanted it. I will be putting in a C100 myself to get full custody of my children and make sure my ex sticks to this, the 3rd cout order i have had to pay for. Have fun giving the wrong advice because I am going to the ombudsman, the papers and my MP about your despicable 2 bit law practice. I thought that you helped the abused not the abuser (Well according to your website anyway) and if your a family law firm you should have the familys interests at heart, especially the children otherwise you are just a scummy defence solicitor that will back the dregs of society for money. I'm sure my children an many others are very pleased with you allowing there abusive parent more rights than one trying to safeguard them.

Dreadful for family law. No back bone what so ever. Side with the other sides solicitor. Don't get your views across to the other party particularly social workers and their solicitors stay quiet in meetings and don't defend you. Your end up with kids in care

Dan cooper doesn’t treat all his clients fairly.
Legal aid funded clients always get a very poor services compared to private funded clients who get the five stars treatment.
Complete waste of time
I do NOT recommend this solicitor
