“This divorce started off as a very stressful time for me, but the professional support, on a very specialised subject, provided by Rothera Bray, made all the difference... I can only describe Rebecca as my “GUARDIAN ANGEL” . At the very first telephone call I had with Rebecca, I could sense only fantastic positive vibes, that made me feel comfortable. ”A Mullath
“I cannot fault the service and advice I have received from Rebecca and Cindy throughout my difficult, acrimonious and complicated divorce. They have helped me get my life back on track. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone unfortunate enough to find themselves in a similar situation to mine.”Mr H
“We had the pleasure of Rebecca Emeleus taking over our case, again a truly remarkable lady, she contacted us and introduced herself and it was very clear that she had read through our case thoroughly and new all the details, again leaving us less anxious, she was always on the end of the phone or email if we needed her, she understood our anxieties and fears and we always felt looked after and supported. We would 100% recommend anybody who needs help and legal representation to go to these guys, from the day to day work, court hearings recommending our barrister etc they are amazing. We owe them so much and after 2 long stressful year's we are now at peace and have a very happy contented home. ”Family Client
