What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Northants Family Law handles family matters from divorce and financial proceedings to children arrangements and safeguarding cases, and the feedback gathered from clients consistently highlights the personal way each case is managed. Alexandra Johnson, known to many as Alex, is named repeatedly for her thorough preparation, calm handling of complex disputes and the reassurance she gives during emotionally difficult proceedings, with her assistance in children and divorce matters drawing particular praise. Lynsey Ward attracts similar comments for quick replies to emails, pragmatic guidance and transparency about costs, so that no unexpected charges arise.

Tony Woods is credited with strong court representation and an ability to reduce the anxiety clients feel before hearings, while Katie Bottoms is remembered for prompt responses and successful applications, and Sophie, Jay Dean and reception staff receive warm mentions for friendliness. Reviewers often note the speed with which paperwork is prepared and submitted, the patience shown when explaining options, and the supportive manner maintained through several hearings. Clients describe feeling protected and listened to across children, divorce and domestic safeguarding work, with many returning to the firm or passing its details to relatives. A recurring theme is the combination of professional representation with genuine care.

I used the family law group several times in supporting my case against an ex-partner. Five court hearings, and the ladies were profound and professional in supporting my emotional needs as well as legal representation. They understand and have a listening ear and went out of their way to make sure I got the protection I needed quickly. This was a serious safeguarding case, which led to a conviction. I would recommend the company, and I would use them again if I ever needed support in representation.

I had paid £180 for an hour conversation with Alexandra Johnson. Complete waste of money time. I could have got better answers on google and from what she said I believe is untrue due to pre outcomes and I am now going to seek advice from a real solicitor. It wasn’t even half an hour and then she said I could message her on WhatsApp about some advice on some papers. It was maybe 8 exchanged messages which then she started repeating stuff she already said and things I already knew and it was just absolutely stupid and a complete waste of time and money. I didn’t get any advice for what I needed and she put me down and started defended the abusive birth father. I wouldn’t waste my time or personal money when I know what she said wasn’t true from what I’ve already researched isn’t true for what she said. If you get legal aid go ahead for advice but if it’s out your pocket DON’T DO IT! I would have given 0 stars if I could but then the receptionist woulda deserved the 1 star, she was helpful. But that could of just been because I was paying out of my pocket.

I contacted Family Law Group after my case was severely compromised by a McKenzie friend. At the time, I was extremely frustrated, as my case seemed irreparably damaged and unlikely to be recovered. Fortunately, I found Alexandra, who, with her incredible calm, patience, and, above all, understanding of my distress, transformed my case from inevitable failure to a path toward better results. Whereas the McKenzie friend promoted anger and conflict, solely aiming to extract as much money as possible from my pocket, Alexandra instead fostered peace and agreement. These qualities are paramount in court proceedings, especially concerning the well-being of children. Alexandra's approach was a guiding force during an already stressful and life-changing moment. Furthermore, I found Family Law Group's fees to be competitive and worth every penny. I am immensely grateful to Alexandra and the entire Family Law Group team for their hard work, understanding, and kindness throughout this challenging process. Thank you!

I would like to say i was lucky enough to have been allocated Alexandra Johnson from family law group. She was very professional in every aspect of my case but most importantly she was understanding and caring in every way. I went through a difficult time dealing with the emotional distress of my case and I couldn’t have asked for a better solicitor protecting me all the way . I would highly recommend her. I can’t thank her enough for everything she did for me Sandra Edwards .

My divorce was made very straight forward with constant updates and communication with Katie Bottoms, I am very happy. Katie is a kind, patient lady who explains things very well. My case has now gone to Lynsey Ward and all is going well also. I definitely recommend this company.

I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to my caseworker Katie Bottoms for her guidance in my legal matter and for the success with my legal applications. I admire Katie’s work ethic and most of all excellent representation. Katie’s prompt responses really meant a lot to me.
