“I went to Rothera Bray solicitors as they accepted Legal Aid, and I needed help with a non-molestation order. I also wanted to apply for a Child Arrangements Order. What started as a simple application soon changed due to the other party’s actions and behaviour. They helped and advised me every step of the way. I was never ignored and always felt like a valued client, even though I was a legal aid client, and I know that isn’t always the case with other firms. They applied for my legal aid on my behalf, which took the strain away from me. My case ran on for 17 months in total, and I was always treated by Skyler and Ann-Marie with importance and respect consistently. My case ended with me having all protective orders and a lives with order until my child is 16. I highly recommend using Rothera Bray, especially if it involves Domestic Abuse. The care and attention you require in those difficult circumstances is exactly what you need. I would go back to them if it were ever needed. ”Private Children Law and Non-Molestation Orders client
“I have found that Sally and Skyler have been very approachable, professional and kind. Sally has given clear advice in a complex and difficult situation. She has always been calm and measured in her advice to both create the best outcome and minimise disruption to my children. Sally is able to talk through and advise difficult dilemmas without being judgemental.As a firm Rothera Bray has always been honest about different options and how much this would cost. They are efficient and provide good quality advice, reports and representation at court.I would definitely recommend them to others as they always act in a professional manner, have a good understanding around the issues that were presented and worked hard to produce a good outcome for our family. ”PE

Most people assume a Will is something you take care of once and then forget about. But certain life events can dramatically change how your Will works or even invalidate it entirely.

From 6 April 2026 employers will face a number of changes to statutory payment rates and employment law compensation limits. These changes, which are the result of both annual rate adjustments and wider reforms under the Employment Rights Act 2025, will increase employer costs, expand eligibility for workers, and require updates to payroll processes, policies and budgeting.
