Tom is incredibly reassuring and able to deal with every aspect of the issues and concerns that come up, meaning clients feel supported.
Tom is an excellent advocate. He is intelligent, kind and pragmatic.
She is a forerunner in international children law and especially complex surrogacy work.
Hannah is a class act who is respected by clients and professionals alike. She combines unparalleled legal knowledge with an ability to focus on the key issues and find practical solutions.
“They are a good, steady pair of hands – you know with a firm like Goodman Ray that parents will get the best representation possible.”
Trudi Featherstone is a brilliant lawyer and Goodman Ray are an excellent firm who supported what was a very difficult few years for me. Trudi knows the law so well but more than that she is kind, empathetic, calm in crisis and highly responsive. I am so grateful for the advice, support and care I received. I highly recommend Trudi and Goodman Ray.
Jemma’s competence is exceptional, and no one can match her intellectually.
I just wanted to say that Hannah has been amazing. Totally on top of the papers, really supportive and helpful and great with the client.
Clear and straightforward advice, she is incredibly empathetic and supportive.
Peggy Ray has a powerful and acute intellect, and grapples imaginatively, with maturity of judgment, and (where appropriate) forcefully with difficult and challenging cases. She is a legendary class act. Janet Broadley is a very well-established specialist in international cases, and in particular in Hague Convention child abduction, with experience of very high-level work including in the UKSC and the CJEU. Her legal knowledge and tactical skill are overlaid by an open, sensitive approach ideally suits her to the representation of older children, and she is one of the few ‘go-to’ practitioners who excel at this role.
Hannah Perry is recognised for her experience in public law issues. She acts for children and parents in care proceedings including complex cases of abuse and domestic violence.
Thomas Brownrigg is a very talented lawyer with the requisite technical ability and judgment.
She has such emotional empathy and helps her clients from a position of no judgement – she is remarkable.
I only really interacted with Jennifer and I always found her to be very friendly and approaches her work with a really positive enthusiasm. I think that is an admirable working style and makes Jennifer stand out. This way of working was particularly appreciated given what a fractious and difficult process divorce can be.
The team is exceptionally strong and respected across all areas of family law.
Even if she has to present a difficult position, she does it expertly and brings people along with her. She is very good at case planning and strategy.
I don’t know where Catriona finds the time to do the work she does.
Thomas Brownrigg has notable strength in handling maintenance claims. He has additional experience in acting on nuptial agreements, financial remedy disputes and cases involving domestic violence allegations. He has expertise in both domestic and cross-border matters.
I wanted to say a sincere thank you for all your help and support in preparing for and attending the hearing last Wednesday. It was a very stressful process, and I am genuinely grateful for the time, care, and clarity you both provided throughout. It has made a huge difference to me and to my daughter.
She is a stellar practitioner and takes a courageous approach to her cases; Peggy is known for her dedication and care to her clients.
Tom is dedicated and gets a quick grasp of the personalities and issues involved in cases with complex dynamics.
Her knowledge of adoption law, her dedication to our case, her honesty about the reality of it, alongside her kindness, make her a special human and exceptional lawyer.
Catriona is a pleasure to work with. She always provides sound, sensible advice.
She is so impressive and has a whole range of knowledge.
Peggy is a fantastic advocate whose energy and commitment is unrivalled.
