Their vast knowledge of the processes and possible outcomes gave me the confidence to embark on these endeavours without any concerns. Their huge collective experience meant that my objectives were reached through their utter professionalism’.

‘I have known Julia Abrey and Alice Tomlin for many years now. Over these years I have felt utterly supported by each of them professionally and the thing that has been outstanding to me is the way in which they have each made every dealing with me a personal one too. I have felt able to reach out to them about many things and I cannot thank them enough’.

‘The Court of Protection team at Withers is a truly expert and niche practice, offering support to individuals with highly complex (often with cross border) issues.

She is a huge support and inspiration to me’.

The customer service is flawless and the billing is clear and itemised.  Katherine has a first class intellect and mindset; with a bright dynamic and sense of humour. She deciphers and navigates the fast-shifting, unpredictable complexities of divorce as they unfold. A lighthouse for stormy times’.

‘Brett Frankle. Totally outstanding. Never known a solicitor to be so super efficient and prompt. He doesn’t take any nonsense but manages to maintain a fair view on things without making the client feel pressured into anything. He is firm but fair. Amazingly knowledgeable. And above all, compassionate with a great understanding of the clients’ needs. I would recommend him to anyone’.

‘I would particularly mark out Adele Pledger, who is as clever as she is charming. Highly efficient, strategically skilled and a great solicitor to have fighting your case. Julian Lipson is one of the top solicitors in this field. He is exceptional in every respect; highly intelligent, very understanding of the emotional nuances and excellent at strategy. Also extremely sensible and well liked’.

‘Suzanne Todd. An outstanding solicitor who has a refreshingly honest and humane approach. Highly intelligent she is able effortlessly to simplify the most complex of cases. With years of experience she can hone in on the optimal outcome for clients. Popular with and highly regarded by her peers, her reputation is an enormous asset to clients: clients start one up in any negotiations’.

‘All the team is very good but I would pick out Claire Blakemore. In my view she is one of the best family lawyers in London. She is very intelligent and thoughtful and in my experience always brings something new to the case. I value her insights and input hugely. Julian Lipson and Michael Gouriet are 2 of the best family lawyers in London. Michael Gouriet is an incredible all rounder, with perfect judgment – loved by his clients and respected by all the top family law firms and lawyers’.

‘Withers provides a complete service for wealthy individuals with family law issues. My particular experience of the team is in cases involving international issues. I have found them to be innovative, dedicated and knowledgeable. Particularly, though, they are always focused on achieving the best possible outcome and are able to advise in relation to various different means by which the best outcome can be obtained, including by avoiding litigation where appropriate.’

‘Withers is a leading law firm with a strong global presence. It is valued in the industry for its high calibre of service and its expertise in complex legal disputes with particular experience representing high net worth individuals and international clients. Its client service is second to none. Jennifer Dickson is a rising star who specialises in legal issues arising from relationship breakdown. She is valued for her pragmatic and sensitive approach to her clients. She gives focussed, no-nonsense advice but is not afraid to fight tenaciously for her clients. In an outstanding firm, she is one to watch’.

‘Julian Lipson and Diana Parker have set the bar very high over many years in terms of the standards they bring to their work. The result of that is that the more junior partners and associates, trained by them and working with them on big cases, develop skills and expertise that their peers in other law firms simply do not have’.

I not only value his legal advice but his business acumen as well – he can see the whole picture both now and pitfalls in the long term and is very straight and honest when giving counsel.

‘Fast, efficient and highly responsive to queries. Always available on the phone for queries and updates’.

Whether it was the unique circumstances they were helping me navigate, or advise on managing social media, or the EU ‘right to be forgotten’, I felt I was in very good hands – from both an expertise and strategy perspective. In contrast, the UK magic circle law firm on the other side seemed very naive about reputation management – as such I felt I had an advantage since I had hired specialists to help me through my case.’

She is a true expert in the field, she was always quick at responding, she is very detailed leaving no room for gaps in understanding the law, she is well versed with US, UK and EU law, and most importantly she has a high level of empathy with her clients.
