Family Matters
I used Stowe Family Solicitors to deal with a family matter, with Yasmin Trow representing me throughout my case. From the outset, Yasmin was incredibly accommodating and arranged meetings around my availability, which made the whole process much easier for me.
Her knowledge and expertise were outstanding, and I found it incredibly reassuring to know that I had someone representing me whom I could fully rely on. Everything was explained clearly and in a way that I could understand, so I always knew what I needed to do and what to expect at each stage.
Whenever I had views or ideas that Yasmin felt would not best serve the outcome I wanted, she was honest and upfront with me. She would explain the different options available, talk me through the pros and cons of each approach, and give me her professional opinion on what she believed was the best course of action. Ultimately, however, she always respected that the decision was mine.
When the matter was finally concluded, I was absolutely overjoyed with the outcome. It exceeded my original expectations, and I genuinely believe that was down to the expertise, guidance and support I received from Stowe Family Solicitors and, in particular, Yasmin.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Yasmin and Stowe Family Solicitors to anyone who needs expert, supportive and trustworthy legal representation.

The best solicitor client relationships are built on trust, and your review captures that perfectly.
We are delighted that Yasmin gave you clear and honest advice throughout, including when her professional view differed from your own, while always ensuring the final decisions remained yours. That balance of expertise, transparency and respect is so important, and it is wonderful to hear that you felt completely confident in her guidance.
Most importantly, we are thrilled that the final outcome exceeded your original expectations. Thank you for placing your trust in Yasmin and for recommending her and Stowe Family Law so wholeheartedly.

I had a very delicate pre-marital issue to discuss which was handled sensitively, speedily and knowledgeably.
Angela set out very clear direction and advice on matters with accurate guidance on costs and the full process.

I would highly recommend the Family Team and Angela Traynier as counsel for difficult family matters.

initial consultation
I was immediately struck by how calm and composed the initial consultation felt. The solicitor was incredibly patient, never rushing me, and their professionalism was evident in every detail. They distilled a great deal of complex information into advice that was remarkably clear and easy to understand. It made a difficult situation feel far more manageable.

I had an initial meeting with Sarah McLoughlin and was very impressed with the experience. She was extremely professional, clear and approachable, and took the time to explain the different options available to me in a very practical and understandable way.
I particularly appreciated that the advice was balanced and realistic, without any pressure to make immediate decisions. I left the meeting with a much clearer understanding of the situation and of the possible next steps.
Sarah was also very kind and attentive throughout the conversation. I would certainly recommend her to anyone looking for clear and thoughtful family law advice.

Incredible service from Chelcie Evans
I can’t recommend Chelcie Evans highly enough. She has supported me through what has been an incredibly difficult and stressful period, and I have always felt that I was in safe hands with her.
Chelcie has been professional, knowledgeable and, importantly, very understanding throughout. She has always taken the time to explain things clearly, answer my questions and give me honest, realistic advice. I have really valued having someone who could keep me focused when things felt overwhelming.
I’ve also been really impressed by her attention to detail and the way she has approached what has at times been a very challenging situation. I have always felt that she genuinely cared about achieving the best possible outcome for me and my children.
Family proceedings are incredibly difficult, but having the right solicitor makes such a difference. I’m extremely grateful to Chelcie for everything she has done for me and would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending her to anyone looking for a family law solicitor

Extremely professional advice given
I have been dealing with Kiren since early 2025 over a rather difficult divorce with an unreceptive other party. Despite us having to wait for delays from the Respondent Kiren has battled on, always keeping me fully informed and has never failed to provide detailed advice and to lay out any options open to me. Kiren has been very quick to update me as soon as any progress has been made. It has been a real pleasure working with Kiren, and I would not hesitate to recommend this company to anyone - all I have received is a thoroughly professional service.

Long running cases can test anyone’s patience, particularly when progress depends on the cooperation of others. It is wonderful to hear that throughout those delays, Kiren remained determined, proactive and firmly focused on moving your case forward.

Your description of working with Kiren as a real pleasure is a fantastic compliment to the professionalism and commitment she has shown throughout.
Thank you for your recommendation. We will make sure your kind words are shared with Kiren.

Exceptional support – I always felt in safe hands
I would like to express my sincere thanks to Kirsty Dourado, Callie and Wendy for all their help and support throughout my case.
From the beginning, I felt that I was in safe hands. Going through a difficult and stressful family law matter is never easy, but having a team who were supportive, understanding and genuinely caring made an enormous difference to me.
Kirsty, Callie and Wendy were always approachable, professional and incredibly responsive. Whenever I had a question or was worried about something, I never felt that I was left on my own. They responded quickly, explained things clearly and helped me feel calmer and more confident about what was happening.
What I appreciated most was not only their professionalism, but the human side of the support they gave me. I genuinely felt listened to, supported and protected throughout the time they represented me.
