What our clients say

The level of service I received from Stowe Family Law was incredible, through a particularly difficult chapter. Both Sarah Barr-Young and Claire Chisnall are exceptional advocates, and I would not give it a second thought in using their services again should I have the need.
Client: Mr L
I would like to thank you for all your support through what has been a traumatic time ( in more ways than one ). I feel that the outcome was as good as could be achieved in the circumstances, and that you were informative, courteous and efficient throughout the whole process. If I am unfortunate enough to require future representation, I would certainly return to you.
Client: Mr P
Claire Chisnall. All I have to say is what a fantastic solicitor she is. She is dedicated to her client and will fight your cause to the very best of her ability. Keeps you informed all the way and leaves no stone unturned. Would highly recommend her and the company.
Client: Mr E
Over a number of years we have used an Ilkley law practise to help us with a range of family law and property issues. Unfortunately the quality of the service with our last interaction deteriorated dramatically and so we approached Wendy Scarr of Stowe Family Law to help us update our Wills. As far as this work was concerned, I can say that my wife and I have been extremely impressed with the efficiency and professionalism of Ms Scarr. I certainly intend returning to Stowe Family Law when and if we need further legal help.
Client: Mr M
Many thanks for all the hard work you have done in supporting my case. It has been a long and rocky road but glad to finally see the end. I will certainly recommend you and use you again in the future.
Client: Ms A
Thank you so much for your help in the last year and a bit. I will say the following: You have at all times acted in a very professional manner and your letters to my wife’s solicitor were very eloquently written with all needed facts in place. I think with another solicitor the outcome would have been completely different and not as successful as it was. You have a great understanding marital law and I would not hesitate to recommend you to someone else in the future.
Client: Mr E
May I take this opportunity to show my gratitude and warmest thanks to Claire Chisnall and Sarah-Barr-Young, for providing the children and I with an exceptional service. Divorce is one of the most emotional, stressful and anxious times. Claire and her team gave me great confidence and reassurance along the entire process. Claire worked extremely hard to financially protect my children and I with her professional work ethic. I could not think of a more sincere solicitor who goes that extra mile for her clients. She explained every detail in depth giving me the confidence that everything I agreed on was for the benefit of my children. Overall, I am so happy with the outcome. I can now leave the past behind and focus on a Healthy, Wealthy, Happy life with my new family. Forever grateful Claire. Thank you once again to all of the team at Stowe Family Law.
Client: Miss H
