What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

York-based Paradigm Family Law LLP handles divorce and wider family law matters, and the feedback gathered from clients consistently highlights the skill and reassurance of the team. James Thornton is named repeatedly, with reviewers describing his advice as accurate and balanced and his manner as patient and empathetic, particularly when circumstances became difficult. A theme running through the feedback is the firm's fixed fee arrangement, which customers in several reviews describe as removing anxiety about costs and providing certainty from the outset.

Reviewers also mention prompt responses, explanations of each step in the process, and attention to the smallest detail, with one client noting that a change of legal adviser had been prompted by feeling like a number elsewhere. Frank Arndt is singled out for his honesty and support during a difficult marriage. The tone across the accounts is of a compassionate and competent practice that treats clients as individuals rather than as costs, and the consistent theme is the confidence clients felt in the advice they received.

Complete waste of tens of thousands of pounds!! They didn’t advise me on anything and were twice the price of other solicitors. Would 100% never use this company or recommend them.

I would like to thank James for his assistance in my recent case of which he has handled . Throughout the process his advice has been accurate balanced and has shown empathy, toward his client . His responses have been prompt and dealt with when promised . He was recommended to me , and i have no hesitation in doing so to anybody else as his service has been as rated. I changed legal advisors due to the feeling of been a number or a cost centre of a larger practice , i do not regret the move . Many thanks James

Absolutely brilliant service and help all along the way. Evelyn was always there to help and advise at every twist and turn and believe me there were many of them. I would recommend them and especially Evelyn to anyone.

I will not hesitate to recommend Paradigm Family Law. Highly professional, knowledgeable and genuine. James Thornton and his network of experts are invaluable, paying attention to the tiniest of detail. At first glance they may seem expensive compared to other solicitors but the fixed fee option is actually a massive financial advantage. There's no worrying about how many emails or phone calls pass between you, as you know there will be no extra cost incurred. Paradigm definitely go more than that extra mile to try achieve the best results possible.

James is a very kind & considerate lawyer whom shows his professionalism across all situations with his clients. He is very aware of the vulnerability of clients going through a stressful/worrying time and deals with this with the upmost compassion. I highly recommend James & his team.

Outstanding service with very sound advice when things looked like getting difficult. James was patient and gave me an explanation of each of the steps that needed to be taken
