Leading Family Law & Divorce Solicitors for Durham & County Durham

When I came to Major Family Law, I was in a pretty awful place. Nobody expects divorce to be easy, and mine wasn't. I was dealing with an extremely difficult ex, mediation had failed and I didn't know where to turn. To be honest, I was in a bad place.

I am forever grateful that I was recommended Major Family Law, and that Sahil Aggarwal took up my case. I am an overthinker and a worrier and the circumstances had my anxiety through the roof and my confidence through the floor. Sahil is calm. Assured and reassuring. Extremely knowledgeable. Right from the off, it felt like he know what was coming next, and no matter what irrational worry I sent his way, he spoke plainly about the possibilities, what was likely, and what was very unlikely.

I was really worried that I would get a solicitor who did unnecessary work to keep the bills high, but I felt Sahil had my best interest front and foremost every step of the way. Exactly what was needed, and nothing more.

If I look back, the outcome is exactly what Sahil predicted was most likely. I know it doesn't always work like that, but I think the honest approach Sahil offers is prudent, not raising your hopes unnecessarily, but not worrying you either.

I would recommend Sahil to absolutely anyone, I will never forget the professional way Major Family Law have supported me through this awful time.

I have used Major family law for my Divorce and financial settlement and have found the whole process to be very smooth they are very professional. Sahil Aggarwal was representing the case and has made life very easy and transparent for me, his service was the best and I highly recommend Sahil for future clients.

Major Family Law are a fantastic team of solicitors who helped and guided me through a potentially complex divorce.

Special thanks to Calvin whose representation and guidance throughout the process has been of an exceptional standard and very much appreciated by myself, i do not hesitate to highly recommend this team to anyone requiring assistance from their broad range of services
A very professional and friendly team who will work with you confidentially from start to finish

From a very grateful client

Major Family Law have been amazing in supporting me through a difficult family court process. They took my case on promptly just after the Christmas period. Recently Stacy Williams has taken on my case and has been absolutely amazing in advising me very patiently, answering all my questions and taking on all my instruction. All the statements she's written for me have been exactly what I wanted and have represented my views well. Her communication is very prompt, polite and thorough. I've been immensely happy with the service provided and would recommend her and Major Family Law to anyone.

I would definitely recommend Major Family Law. Stacey Williams was extremely professional and helpful throughout my case. After having bad experiences with family law solicitors in the past I was still skeptical but was quickly put to ease by her caring nature and having everything explained to me throughly to help get the result I wanted. Also a special mention to Stacey’s colleague Sam who also stepped in whilst Stacy was away, couldn’t thank them enough.

Easy to talk to and honest advice. Sam Carter is a credit to the company and has been key in helping me regain access to my daughter.

Working with Sam Carter as my family law solicitor was the best decision I have ever made and I can't express enough gratitude. He took the time to truly understand the situation and I was incredibly impressed at his ability to quickly recall information specific to my case.

Sam’s approach towards matters were always calm, communicated well and the advice I received was for the best interests of my children.

He is a true professional that I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you Sam.

I am so pleased that we made the decision to hire a solicitor to represent my son at court and even more pleased that it was Charles.

From the initial phone call he was helpful, put us at ease and explained everything in great detail so we knew what was and would happen. Even though this case was short notice we felt confident in Charles and that we could trust him.

I'd just like to say that we were delighted with the outcome, it couldn't have gone better and we would never have got this result without him. He literally gave my son a fresh start.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this firm and Charles to anyone in the future.

I would recommend Major Family Law, and Sahil Aggarwal in particular, as I have just been through a very lengthy and sometimes complicated Divorce process. Sahil was knowledgeable and thorough and explained the process as we went along both professionally and empathetically. Divorce is by no means cheap but I am satisfied that the outcome is the best I could have achieved. Thank you Sahil and Major Family Law.

Excellent service. I called over 50 odd solicitors and nobody was able to help me, by this point i was feeling very deflated. I then called major family law and they were more than happy to help me, book me in for a consultation and offer me advice. The advice was very in depth and very helpful to my situation. Katie was very reassuring and professional in dealing with my enquiry. I was booked in very quickly and my consultation was 45 minutes which was plenty of time to discuss everything i needed. Thank you again Katie
