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 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.

She expertly dealt with the numerous financial issues that arose and was firm but practical in her approach to how she came to the final settlement. She was very clear and explained each step as we went along, which alleviated much of my anxiety. I am hugely grateful to her for her calm handling of the opposition solicitor who was extremely aggressive and for progressing the case to its conclusion.
