I enquired over the telephone about a meeting to review our existing Wills and set up a property Will Trust. The email reply from the trainee just outlined their standard Wills service missing the points I had made. ‘Perhaps I didn’t explain myself ?’ so I put everything clearly in writing. No reply, just an ‘out of office’. Chased up again 2 weeks later but again, no reply, just another ‘out of office’. Not even a ‘Sorry’, ‘We’re too busy’ or ‘Just stop annoying us’ ! Truly pathetic service by so called ‘Legal Professionals’ ! Don’t waste your time, plenty of other solicitors out there !

I knew I was about to embark on a very long journey to end a 30 year marriage, however after my first meeting with Robyn she provided me with clear information and guidance and I knew I was in safe hands with someone who was professional and experienced.

Robyn always provided excellent communications and explained each step clearly and concisely.
I never felt pressured at any point to make quick decisions and was able to express my thoughts and concerns and always received excellent support and advice. I have to also thank Lydia Anson who also gave an excellent service and together they are an amazing team, one I would highly recommend.

My journey is nearly over and I cannot thank Robyn and Lydia enough for everything they have done, my confidence has grown and I know not having them with me on this journey could have looked very different.

Thank you both so much from myself and my boys, we finally got there and we came out stronger thanks to you both. I would not hesitate in recommending Robyn and Lydia, you will not be disappointed.

Eleanor Tanner managed my divorce case. She was attentive, pragmatic, kept things moving when there was a delay. I'd recommend Eleanor to anyone with similar matters.

I was informed by KJ Smith from the start that due to a short marriage and no children, that my divorce should be a clean break and I owed my ex nothing. When the other side offered to settle on £150,000, I was told not to counter offer. I ended up losing my home and a big chunk of my pension, as well as wasting more than £70,000 on legal fees. Their advise has cost me more than half a million pounds and I will be making an official complaint and looking for compensation. I also raised on many occasions that their legal bills were extortionate, but my concerns were ignored and I ended up having to sack them before the FDR as they had already run up more than £40,000 of fees and wanted another £10,000. Throughout, they offered no strategy. they simply responded to the other sides aggressive demands that continually arose throughout the divorce proceedings.

Aaron O'Malley was helpful, responsive and very professional. He made the process as seamless as possible. Highly recommend.

I do not have the words to articulate how unbelievably wonderful K J Smith solicitors have been to myself.
I have never had any experience with this kind of thing before so I was feeling pretty anxious about the journey ahead.
After my marriage broke down and feeling the most vulnerable I’ve ever felt, the moment I walked into their office and was met by Samantha Archer I knew this team were the ones I wanted to help me.
I was guided, protected, informed and respected in a way I didn’t know a service could be. I was so much more than a customer. I felt heard, listened too and safe, I wasn’t alone and was fully protected by them.
Their professionalism, their work ethic and their desire to go above and beyond was something I will never forget.
K J Smith changed my life. If it wasn’t for Samantha Archer and her team my life would be very different today.
They will forever hold a special place in my heart.

Samantha Archer from KJ Smith Woodley Office and her colleagues supported me throughout my divorce process, which was complex despite being fully amicable. I am grateful to Sam for her support throughout, for her empathy, knowledge and guidance - thank you! Highly recommended.

Samantha Archer was wonderful to work with. She works hard and kept me informed at every turn. She was available and willing to help and explain anything whenever I needed it. Highly recommend.

from the outset. During my first meeting with Robyn she instilled confidence by being assertive, straight to the point and putting everything into simple and easy to understand steps. A divorce isn’t what anyone sets out to ever go through, there is a lot to learn, lots to consider but having the reassurance of knowing you have a professional lawyer at your side makes it much easier. Robyn’s communication style is crystal clear and throughout the process Robyn’s expectations from me were always nicely laid out in all communications. I highly recommend Robyn and would like to convey my thanks for your support. Furthermore I’d also like to mention Lydia Anson who works alongside Robyn, she has been great to deal with and again I’d like to pass on my thanks.

Thank you both and best wishes for the future.

I highly recommend Robyn Bowyer supported by Lydia Anson for their incredible work and support with my divorce. I could not ask for better people fighting my corner. Robyn is extremely knowledgeable and so helpful. Robyn and Lydia are both very professional always offer great advice and provide clear instructions. This process has been so stressful and emotionally draining but Robyn is always there if I need reassurance and she so encouraging when things get tough. I really appreciate the level of compassion she always offers. I am truly grateful. Thank you so much ladies, you are absolutely amazing.

I would like to thank Robyn Bower for her hard work in sorting out a settlement case between myself and my ex partner.
Robyn offered great advise and despite a lot of going back and forth with my ex's team of solicitors I came away happy with the result. Cost slightly more than I had hoped however I would recommend Robyn for her quick responses and her knowledge and experience of family law.

From the very first meeting with Robyn I knew she was the perfect solicitor & person, to help me with my divorce. Ably supported by Lydia, I cannot say enough to reassure any prospective client that they are in excellent hands.

Extremely poor service they quote low and charge high mine was straight forward but they were over £10k before the finances had even really started to be sorted, they have no qualms of taking advantage of people when they are in a vulnerable state. They were doing work that the other solicitor should be doing and charging me for it

I would recommend Harpreet Sihra of the Beaconsfield office to anyone needing family law advice. She was kind and professional, and helped me with my family situation.

I was going through a very difficult and demanding divorce. Kulbir Rahi from the Ascot office dealt with this with utmost professionalism and sensitivity. If I required urgent help she would take my call or phone me straight back. I never had to wait for her to return my calls or emails.

Robyn Bowyer took on my case less than a month ago and had things moving very quickly. She or her Trainee Solicitor -Lydia Anson, have kept me regularly informed of how things are proceeding. Not only that, but Robyn is very compassionate and sensitive towards my situation. I’ve never felt that I am just another case.

I have just gone through the process of getting a divorce. I chose Stephanie Glover to help me navigate this process. She was really good, very effective, organised, kind and empathetic and kept me informed at all times. I would recommend her.

I had a free introductory session with Aaron O’Malley. This was very clear, insightful and helped me understand a delicate matter. I would strongly recommend Aaron and KJ Smith.

I have received great advice from the team at K J Smiths on multiple occasions. A special thank you to Robyn Bowyer and Lydia Anson who have taken the time to run through a few items, taken the time to explain the best position and outcome for me. Very grateful to have two intelligent solicitors guiding me.

I recommend Robyn Bowyer to my friends and family, she is fantastic at dealing with complex matters whilst deeply empathetic. I would highly recommend KJ Smith.
