Stowe - Family Court

The team at Stowe have been really helpful during a very difficult time. I would highly recommend Judit Kerese, who gave me every opportunity for the best outcome of my case and was the support and legal backing I needed at a highly stressful time. All the way through to a final hearing to have someone responsive, diligent and offering sound advice, who is part of larger team is essential in these times. I would certainly recommend Stowe to anyone going through the family courts.

Professional and competent.

Stowe we're very helpful in what is a very stressful situation, divorce. I had a free conversation with a divorce solicitor to help me decide whether to proceed with that company and what tack to choose. They were very calming and explained everything to me. They arranged a few telephone conversations and we communicated mostly by emails. They kept me informed on costs as time progressed and were within the estimate originally provided.

Professionalism with Excellent Client Care

Joanna’s legal knowledge and attention to client care have been exceptional throughout. Whilst going through a divorce process was never going to be nice, Joanna has balanced absolute professionalism with maintaining a friendly, caring and good-humoured approach. I have really appreciated her support every step of the way.

Excellent service!!!!

I had the best possible experience with Zoe Robinson's family law team, in a very high conflict situation with my daughter's father.
From the begining, the team's understanding of the complexity of the situation, diligence, honest and realistic advice, and extremely good judicial support, was crucial to get the the best outcome in family court.
I am so happy, and hopeful for my daughter's future because i felt empowered by Zoe's team.
I definitely recommend Zoe Robinson's family law service. For me, she is the 'go to' solicitor for any future conflict situations with my daughter's father.

Zoe Robinson - Stowe Family Law

I'd like to thank Zoe Robinson and all of the team at Stowe Family Law for all of their (ongoing) support through what has been a really difficult time. Since the start, Zoe has been professional, knowledgeable, and gave me clear advice whilst also acting quickly when things escalated.

Zoe has so far handled my case with real precision and care and has always focused on what was best for my child as well as my rights as a parent. I have always felt confident and fully informed when speaking with Zoe.

Zoe's representation has been top-notch and it's made all the difference for not only me but my child, too.

I highly recommend Zoe to anyone needing expert, compassionate help with family law matters.

I am extremely disappointed with the…

I am extremely disappointed with the service I received. Despite paying over £3,000, I was left without a barrister at a critical stage, which caused me unnecessary stress and left me unrepresented when I needed support the most. I expected professionalism, transparency, and proper guidance, but instead I feel completely let down and out of pocket.

I would not recommend Stowe Family Law based on my experience — the lack of accountability and poor communication has been deeply frustrating and unfair.

After a lengthy and difficult divorce

After a lengthy and difficult divorce, (which Stowe handled for me), I was forced to seek their help again in chasing the Court Order settlement.
This has now reached a conclusion due to my solicitor listening, advising and implementing what was needed to bring this about. Special thanks to Judit Kerese for all her support. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Stowe to friends and family.

Joanna is a class act

Joanna strikes a superb balance between offering the assurances you need when entering a process - trust, knowledge, experience, perspective etc - and the empathy required to sense the emotional support you need when in it. I am currently at the very early stages of this but felt immediately at ease with Joanna. Pace is being driven initially by me and at no time have I felt pushed to go faster. If anything, when reconciliation with my partner has entered as a potential development (as in my case) I have been encouraged to pursue with gusto. This feels all about me and not about a cookie cutter approach to get to a conclusion asap. Joanna is a class act. Could not recommend highly enough.

Instruction given to help obtain Financial Consent order for my divorce

Instructed this Company to assist getting a financial settlement in place for my Divorce. Nearly 18 months on and absolutely no further forward found them unapproachable when seeking advice and information. More contact was made with their extensive finance department as they persistently pursued money from me to be held on account. No clear or consise itemised invoice was ever available. However there was never enough money held in account and in my view nearly £5k was spent for absolutely no progress or resolution. After spending all my savings I disinterested this firm and dealt with my husband's solicitors directly who turned out to be very co operative I am pleased to say we have reached a resolution with settlement in place and awaiting my decree absolute. That again I dealt with completely separately from this Company via gov website.
Stowe Family Law proved not to be helpful regarding my situation and are far more keen to take your money than give any helpful advice.
I sorted thefinancial consent order directly with my husbands solicitors dirctly

I spoke to a family lawyer at Stowe Family Law, and found it incredibly helpful

I spoke to a family lawyer at Stowe Family Law regarding the very complex area of divorce. I was a bit overwhelmed with the information I had in front of me, and they helped me make sense of it all so that I could move forward. It is a difficult area to navigate, and although I am very fortunate in the situation I am in compared to many, it was incredibly helpful and I would recommend speaking to them if you are in the early stages of navigating divorce.

Professional and caring Family Law Firm

The people that dealt with me from Stowe Family Law were all highly professional and considerate.

My lawyer Joanna Newton took care of a complicated divorce and supported me through the process. I cannot recommend her and Stowe Family Law enough. Divorces are difficult enough so having a person that is not only on you side and cares is extremely important.
