Daniel Russell. What an excellent solicitor and such a lovely man too. I found him to be tenacious, compassionate and determined; he left no stone unturned and kept me informed every step of the way. My divorce was a complex matter. I particularly appreciated his ability to explain everything to me in a manner that made sense and put my mind at rest too. He always made himself available to answer questions, he was organised and efficient. Thank you!

My friend recommended Carlsons Solicitors to me and I’m so glad she did. Richard, Daniel and their team provided excellent advice throughout my divorce proceedings but I am especially grateful with the way Richard dealt with the child contact element. It was so complicated but he explained both the legal and human aspects of each stage so that I could finally sleep at night without questions running through my mind.

After years of fighting and continuous trips to court I was ready to give up. I telephoned Carlsons Solicitors while feeling very stressed and emotional. I had searched online for a solicitor and their name came up. Richard Higham listened with patience to my rant and talked me through options in that first phone-call that I didn’t even know were open to me. He is so knowledgeable but also calming and he seemed to pick through what felt like a minefield with patience and clarity. It was only after he worked on my case I found out he is also a Judge of the Family Court. I would recommend him and his colleagues in a heartbeat.
