Having read your letter I would like to thank you for doing your duties emphatically and supporting me though this difficult time by your professionalism. At a time where I was being judged and condemned by various people you fought my corner I believed at the very least reflected my views and side of the story.
I have worked with Goodman Ray for ten years or more undertaking financial remedy work. Many of those cases have had a large and complex international element, others have involved uncovering gross non-disclosure by the other party and almost all have been cases where the asset base is complicated by trusts, private limited company structures or complex third-party interests and claims.
What I have consistently found is that Goodman Ray offer quality that is just as effective and professional as the ‘magic circle’ sets of solicitors but do so with a strong personal commitment, offer empathetic advice and consistent maintain a clear focus on achieving successful outcomes at proportionate cost to the clients. I routinely recommend Goodman Ray’s financial remedy team to others and including to my own directly instructed clients when their cases need the involvement of a solicitor.

I changed solicitors during my proceedings for a personal family law case. After weeks of calls, research, and trying to find the right legal help and understanding, I was appointed Rachael Brown of Goodman Ray. I cannot explain how happy I was… I had truly lost hope at that point and felt so lucky when I knew they was able to help me.
From the very beginning, Rachael’s knowledge, expertise, patience, and understanding were outstanding. I honestly cannot imagine how I would have managed this journey without her support and guidance. She helped me understand everything, be pragmatic yet grounded and just gave me the best possible chance with the whole situation. Changing solicitors when I did was the best decision I could have made, and I truly believe the outcome and overall experience would have been very different otherwise.
This was one of the hardest things I have ever done, but with Rachael’s guidance I came through it feeling stronger, secure, and with an outcome that is best for my child and my safety. Her support throughout was invaluable, and I will forever be grateful for everything she did for us.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your time and dedication I am eternally grateful. I have never written a google review but believe that’s what led me to reach out to Goodman Ray and hope that I can help someone on their future journey to do the same. Thank you so much!
