It is so so difficult but even when you don’t think you can carry on, Sheeja and Olivia will be your backbone and guide you through professionally and with compassion, I could not have got through this without their ongoing support. You can win this battle with them even when things feel like they are not going your way, I will be eternally grateful for what they have done for me, don’t give up, they will be there for you! x

I’m deeply grateful to Goodman Ray Solicitors for guiding me through a long, complex 5-year domestic abuse case, which ended in a life-changing success. Their dedication, professionalism, and genuine care helped save my and my children’s lives.

I couldn’t have asked for better representation. Thank you for your outstanding work your help will never be forgotten. You truly made a difference. God bless you.

Trudi Featherstone is great in mediation in complicated money cases. She’s such good value for money as she’s an experienced partner. She is good at building a relationship with clients very quickly.
… thank you for all your hard work, patience and support. It really really made a difference and just thinking of the alternative would have been so so difficult. I feel very empowered by being on the stand… The opposite of what I feared as it is something I have dreaded for two years.
I had another lawyer before. I totally recommend the service of Goodman Ray. They are fast, efficient and thorough. Sheeja in particular worked with me in the most professional and humane way. She is one of the best I have ever met and I have no words to thank her for her perfect work.
Trudi Featherstone is a fabulous mediator. She is really sensible, really pragmatic and really takes on board the individuals she’s dealing with.
She is a stellar practitioner and takes a courageous approach to her cases; Peggy is known for her dedication and care to her clients.
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.
Catriona is extremely impressive. You can tell she really cares and is one of those solicitors who goes the extra mile.
It is an excellent children’s law practice, with a particular speciality as a leader in the representation of children, and a recognised high-level expertise in international cases.
