I contacted Stowe family law after I had separated from my partner of 12 yrs. She had walked out and left me to look after my 6 yr old son, 8 months later i was taken to court by my ex partner over my son, so I turned to Stowe for help. Jemma, Rachael and the team where there for me from the first time I met them until my case was settled in court. They supported me constantly through a very tough and emotional time that lasted for over a year, they we’re always there to help and I could not of got through this without them. My heart goes out to Jemma, Rachael and the team at STOWE FAMILY LAW. A big thank you.
