Exceptional legal support, professionalism and genuine compassion.
Exceptional legal support, professionalism and genuine compassion.
Going through a divorce is undoubtedly one of life’s most emotionally challenging experiences, and having the right solicitor alongside you makes an immeasurable difference.
I cannot speak highly enough of Zoe Cross at Stowe Family Law, Leeds, for the professionalism, compassion and genuine care she has demonstrated throughout my case.
From the outset, Zoe approached everything with empathy, patience and understanding, while providing clear, knowledgeable and considered legal advice. Zoe consistently demonstrated the ability and skill to balance the legal complexities of my situation with an appreciation of the very real personal and emotional challenges involved.
What particularly stood out was Zoe’s professionalism and integrity. I was never in any doubt that my interests were being represented thoughtfully and thoroughly, meaning I could trust her guidance with unwavering confidence at every junction. Her communication was clear, reassuring and respectful, helping me navigate difficult decisions with greater confidence and understanding.
Family law requires more than just technical legal expertise. It demands emotional intelligence, sound judgement and the ability to support people through some of the most vulnerable periods of their lives. Zoe possesses these qualities in abundance.
I am incredibly grateful not only for the legal support Zoe has provided, but also for the kindness and dignity with which she has treated me throughout the process.
Zoe is a tremendous credit to Stowe Family Law and an outstanding example of the difference an exceptional solicitor can make to someone’s life.
I would wholeheartedly recommend Zoe to anyone seeking a family law solicitor who combines exceptional professionalism with genuine humanity.
Thank you, Zoe, for everything.

Complex case made easy by Stowe
I approached Stowe in January 2026 and my case for a child arrangements order has been complex and lengthy but concluded this week.
I can't recommend them enough, the service has been amazing from the start. Extremely professional with a personal touch, I've felt really well looked after and understood from the first conversation.
I personally want to thank Becca Reynolds for her amazing work on my case and keeping me updated and informed with each step. Also, Gina Mason for stepping in when Becca wasn't available. Both ladies have been absolutely fantastic and are a credit to Stowe.
Thank you both for doing all you could for my family, we are eternally grateful ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Reaching the end of a complex children matter after many months must feel like a significant moment for you and your family.
We are delighted that Becca kept you informed and supported at every stage, combining professionalism with the personal care that helped you feel understood throughout. It is equally wonderful to hear that when Becca was unavailable, Gina stepped in seamlessly so you continued to feel well looked after.
To describe them both as a credit to Stowe is a fantastic compliment, but your gratitude for what they have done for your family says even more.
Thank you for trusting Becca, Gina and Stowe Family Law with something so important. We will make sure your heartfelt words are shared with them both.

I’m extremely grateful for the advice and support I received from Heidi during what has been a difficult and uncertain time. She was professional and highly knowledgeable as well as approachable and understanding.
She took the time to listen carefully to my circumstances and explained my options clearly. I came away feeling informed, reassured and able to make decisions about the next steps for myself and my family.
I would highly recommend Heidi to anyone looking for clear, sensible and compassionate family law advice during a separation.

Sensitive handling of a financial settlement in a divorce
Heidi took the time to understand the specifics of my relationship breakdown / cause of the divorce, and gave really instructive advice early on to help me consider how to approach making a financial settlement. In particular, she was very informed about agreeing business assets being split and pension sharing of a public sector pension in the civil service. She kept my details safe when she suspected my email had been hacked by my ex husband, and recommended a safer email address so the details of the case were kept private to me. There was coercive control involved and I was able to explain how this impacted the case and she represented me with that in mind.
She was able to give balanced views and options when negotiations reached stalemate, suggesting pros and cons of next steps available to me. I reached a financial settlement relatively swiftly after that and am content with the outcome. I would recommend Heidi Fleming for her expertise in managing a divorce sensitively where business assets, home and pensions are involved. (We were able to agree childcare arrangements privately between ourselves but she was astute to the links between childcare agreements in a Parenting Plan and associated financial implications). Heidi responds very quickly to emails / calls and remembers the case very clearly and is well versed in the law surrounding financial consent orders being approved by a Court. Mine was approved quickly with no queries thanks to her detailed commentary on a vaguely drafted consent order prepared by the other side's solicitor. We also successfully turned over their claim to over half the house capital and a bid to block applying for child maintenance.

What stands out in your review is the breadth of Heidi’s support. From business assets and pensions through to negotiations, privacy concerns and the wider circumstances surrounding your divorce, you felt that every part of your situation was properly understood.
We are especially pleased that Heidi gave you balanced options rather than simply directing you towards one route, helping you make informed decisions when negotiations became difficult. Her attention to detail and responsiveness clearly helped move matters forward efficiently and ultimately achieve a financial settlement you are happy with.
Thank you for such a detailed recommendation. Your words are a wonderful reflection of Heidi’s expertise, judgement and sensitive approach to complex divorce matters.

Cohabitation matters
I had my first meeting with Heidi Fleming to discuss my cohabitation dispute after the previous solicitor I had been speaking to had left the firm. She made me feel very comfortable within the first minute of the teams call. She explained everything in layman's terms so I understood my rights and my standing in the dispute. Heidi was extremely knowledgeable about all aspects and had taken the time to read my prior notes so I did not have to explain the situation again. She was very supportive and understanding of the situation and made me feel like there was someone on my side who would fight for me. I was nervous going into the meeting but I felt very positive coming out of it and knowing what the next steps will be.

Outstanding Service
I got in contact with Stowe Family Law late in 2025, when it felt like my world was falling apart due to the a relocation issue.
The whole team at Stowe Family Law were kind, compassionate and empathetic throughout the last 10 months, however Zoe Cross who had my case was outstanding. Zoe give great advise throughout the last 10 months, keeping me grounded and feeling heard, Zoe kept me informed and update throughout the process which was greatly received due to myself being in a process I have never been in before.
I would recommend Stowe Family Law to anyone who was in need, and I would always as for Zoe's availability, but as mentioned before the whole team have been outstanding.
