Thank you, Sarah, and all involved. You’ve been really great through all of this. I can’t imagine any divorce is totally straight forward but when things were a little stressful you and the team got it sorted.

I am extremely grateful to Sarah Martin and her team for myself and my family. I was so fortunate to have Sarah as my solicitor. She was professional, thoughtful, listened with care and of course offered excellent advice. She couldn’t have worked harder on my behalf in difficult circumstances and over a short period of time. I could not recommend anyone as much, and would advise looking no further than Sarah Martin.
