Thoroughly excellent service provided via Wikivorce. Was slightly apprehensive of how it would all work, especially at a distance. However, they were swift, efficient, immensely polite, accurate, and gave regular updates. I would recommend them to anyone.
Can't fault my experience in any way. Brilliant advice / available at short notice for any questions and most importantly swiftly achieved the desired result. Found Austin Kemp after feeling HCB Solicitors were not acting in my best interests and I was correct on all fronts - even including having an appreciation for the fact Divorce is already emotional situation. Also, rather than have to query every suggested next step and be charged for the pleasure; As I'd done a little research of my own and was able to challenge their advice - however we pay Solicitors for their expertise and need to put our trust in them. Austin Kemp thankfully achieved that for me during our first conversation I was already reassured they understood what I wanted and how best to achieve it. Resulting in 7-8 months less work and no court appearances as I had been previously advised by HCB. I THANK YOU DEARLY AUSTIN KEMP. I can start my life again earlier and with a healthier bank balance because of you!!!
Amazing service. For the first time in nearly two years I feel less in a spiral and more in control.
Thoroughly professional, straightforward, timely and reasonably priced. I would recommend this firm to anyone. Thank you Emma and Austen Kemp for a great service.
Thank you so much. You were great. I wasted so much time and money with my previous solicitors and only regret I did not contact you earlier. I have dropped a line to Paul to thank him for referring me to you. I hope you enjoyed the red I sent you as a token of our appreciation.
Austin Kemp provides a pragmatic and honest approach to the individual's journey through Family Law issues. They demonstrate a willingness and capacity to respond to challenging and unpredictable circumstances. The professional, yet personal, service is naturally client centred, but with a realistic and informed view of children's needs. And it has been heartening to have such a caring team walk beside me in the long journey.
I cannot recommend highly enough Austin Kemp as a strong, commercially intelligent and the most effective negotiators. Their negotiation skills are second to none. I have seen firsthand the excellent results this team achieves for their clients.
Just want to say thanks so much for everything. You have been brilliant and very patient. I always felt comfortable calling when asking to clarify certain points of the divorce.
I can honestly say that I am more than satisfied with the management of my case and of my then state of mind. I highly recommend this firm. Thank you.
Amandeep Kooner was not prepared to be swayed from a path of professionalism to accommodate my anxiety and frustration. He would not succumb to taking instructions tit for tat response. He ensured at all times that the response he gave reflected a dignified client with a pleasant demeanour. In so doing he demonstrated his commitment to protect and secure my interests and dignity off which I am most grateful.
Although he has a dual approached role which is business and a duty of care, Amandeep Kooner showed concerns for the level of expenditure that I had already put out with no resolve. His team contained the work to the minimum and produced the maximum results. My case was quickly progressed without compromising compassion and understanding.
Very professional service! Explained everything they were doing for my case every step of the way and really helped me to understand how we would proceed. Thank you!
Intellectually bright, hardworking and extremely professional - Amandeep Kooner took my case at it most difficult as I had come to the end of my ability to remain calm and patient. Up until I instructed Austin Kemp, I had lost all hope that any solicitor could convince me in pursuing a non-retaliatory approach as I was losing ground to allegations and fabrications. Tough, hardworking and extremely professional.
However, there are some things that you could do, that may help you to ensure that your divorce process runs as smoothly as possible.
It may be too late to save your marriage but counselling can serve another purpose. Seeking counselling with your spouse before you divorce, can be a good way to help you both manage your emotions and begin to see how you might move on after the divorce is over.
It can also help you to open up and improve communication with your partner, which may help when it comes to negotiating your financial settlement.
Good communication is essential for divorce negotiations. If you find it difficult to talk with your spouse, your respective solicitors can conduct the negotiations on your behalf.
You could also consider mediation, where an impartial third party helps you to discuss and resolve any issues (including financial matters and child living arrangements).
As per point number 1, communicating your feelings to a counsellor (with or without your spouse present) can also help you to work through any issues.
Children whose parents are divorcing, may also be going through a very difficult time, so it’s important to keep lines of communication open and address any worries or concerns they may have. Sometimes, children blame themselves for their parents’ divorce. It’s important to reassure them, as often as necessary, that it is not their fault.
Most divorces impact not just the couple, but also friends and family. If you spend too much time ‘badmouthing’ your spouse, friends may feel torn between you and your spouse. The same goes for children. Feeling that they have to take sides, can add to the stress in what can often be an extremely upsetting time.
Although not many people going through a divorce have positive feelings towards their spouse, it can help to remember that things weren’t always so bad. At some point in the past, you were probably in love with each other.
It can be challenging, but trying to keep this in mind and being civil to your spouse during the divorce proceedings (and in the future) could result in a much less difficult time.
As hard as it can be, putting a positive spin on events can also help you to maintain a positive outlook throughout the process.
Speaking to an experienced solicitor about your concerns, can help you to clarify your position and understand what your financial settlement may look like upon divorce. You may find that meeting with a solicitor to talk though your worries, could even put your mind at rest.
