“I can't thank Jonathan Dunkley at Major Family Law enough for his outstanding support”

I can't thank Jonathan Dunkley at Major Family Law enough for his outstanding support and expertise during my divorce.

He made the entire process much more manageable by explaining every step in detail, always being available to answer my questions, and consistently providing clear and practical advice.

Jonathan’s attention to detail and strategic approach were invaluable. His calm and reassuring manner helped ease the stress and anxiety associated with the divorce process. It was evident that he genuinely cared about achieving the best possible result for me.

I highly recommend Jonathan Dunkley and the team at Major Family Law to anyone seeking legal support in family matters. Their expertise, commitment, and client-centered approach make them a top choice for anyone going through a difficult time.

Sahil has been very patient, very supportive and helped me over and beyond with everything I’m going through. I would like to thank Sahil and his team for supporting me through this difficult period, it’s been amazing service and truly appreciated. Thank you so much!

“I could not be happier with the interactions I had with Sahil”

Absolutely fabulous! I had two consultation’s with Sahil Aggarwal three years apart and both times I was left with pertinent, succinct and relevant information that gave me the confidence and knowledge to make decisions concerning a jointly owned property. Excellent, relevant advice delivered in a friendly and respectful way. I could not be happier with the interactions I had with Sahil and Major Family Law. Thank you.

“They provide clear, fair guidance”

We have worked with Sam Carter and the team on and off for over three years and have always been impressed by their pragmatic, sensitive and highly professional approach. They provide clear, fair guidance while maintaining a strong focus on the best interests of the child. Highly recommend them to anyone in need of thoughtful and balanced family law support.

“Sam is an excellent solicitor and a pleasure to deal with”

Sam is an excellent solicitor and a pleasure to deal with. I have no hesitation in recommending his services and am grateful for everything the firm does for me.

“Sahil provided me with excellent support, guidance and was the calming person I needed”

Following many hours of searching for the right person to take on my divorce case where i felt comfortable and at ease, I appointed Sahil Aggarwal from Major Family Law to help me negotiate through my divorce.

Sahil provided me with excellent support, guidance and was the calming person i needed in a very emotionally challenging period. He was very patient and professional throughout. Sahil was able to understand the complexities of my case and provide me with best advice and guidance to resolve any issues that arose. Thank you Sahil and Major Family Law!
Would highly recommend.

“I never felt alone and she was always there to answer any question”

Having been married for years the time had come for me to take control of my life and although I was terrified I contacted major family law. I was assigned to Anya Harrison who has saved my life and with the help of Stephanie took me through the daunting process of a divorce. Anya was by my side the whole way and although she conducted herself in a very professional manner was also my friend. I never felt alone and she was always there to answer any question I had and direct me in the right direction. I am now divorced and ready to move forward to start a new life, without Anya I would never have been able to do this, so if anybody has any doubts about contacting major family law don’t hesitate. I may add I am 73 years old and now as free as a bird so it is never too late. Thank you Anya and Stephanie

“Anya left no stone unturned and always made my best interests the priority”

Great overall service in settling divorce/dissolution case. Everyone I dealt with were helpful, compassionate and easy to talk with, none more so than Anya Harrison who acted on my behalf.

Anya left no stone unturned and always made my best interests the priority. Communication was always swift which made a complex process as smooth and efficient as possible.

Can’t thank Anya and the team enough for bringing closure to a problematic time in my life.

“This was by far the best and most coherent information I have received so far”

This was by far the best and most coherent information I have received so far in regards to my separation and pending divorce. The free consultation felt like it was actually specific to me and my situation and I came away feeling reassured and informed. I cannot recommend this company highly enough.

“Anya Harrison worked on my case and she has been fantastic”

I am very glad to have chosen Major Family Law for my divorce and financial separation (financial ‘clean break’).

Anya Harrison worked on my case and she has been fantastic. Anya is a clear, efficient communicator and I felt well-supported at all times. Throughout the process I was given helpful information about cost estimates, what would be involved in the various steps, how long the overall process might realistically take.

If I had questions, Anya replied swiftly and was also available for phone meetings.

Getting a divorce is inevitably stressful to some degree, particularly when children are involved. Nevertheless, I do feel like having a good solicitor helped to greatly minimise stress. Furthermore, I am happy with the outcome achieved.

I would highly recommend Anya (and Major Family Law too!).

“Anya and Anna made a difficult situation bearable”

What can I say .... Anya and Anna made a difficult situation bearable. The main reason I liked them was they were fair and not at all aggressive, which reflected how I approached my divorce, it's sad time for all and de-escalation is often a great strategy.
Thanks again.

“Sam’s knowledge and expertise were invaluable”

I found Major Family Law after several hours of research and Sam ensured they lived up to their reputation. Sam’s knowledge and expertise were invaluable and when Sam was on annual leave Major Law ensured I was kept up to date even in his absence. I’m so glad I chose Major Family Law and that Sam was assigned my case. It’s meant the world to my family.

“A very positive experience. Friendly and professional from the outset.”

A very positive experience. Friendly and professional from the outset. Excellent and prompt communication that made the process of my separation much less stressful.
I thank the firm for the good service provided.

“Major Family Law and, in particular, Sam Carter have been absolutely amazing”

Major Family Law and, in particular, Sam Carter have been absolutely amazing handling my case. So professional, kind and thorough. I am truly grateful for all Sam's hard work and would highly recommend using this firm.

“Jonathan was straightforward and knowledgeable, providing clear guidance throughout”

I recently worked with Jonathan Dunkley and was thoroughly impressed. Jonathan was straightforward and knowledgeable, providing clear guidance throughout. He was supportive and made sure I understood all aspects of the situation. I would highly recommend.

“The care and attention to detail shown by Anna was excellent”

The care and attention to detail shown by Anna was excellent, put many of my fears to bed and helped me find a route forward when it was hard to see one prior.

“I also feel that the company have a very caring ethos”

I highly recommend Major Family Law.

From the beginning, when I was very unsure of my rights , to the very good outcome, I have felt confident in the advice and guidance given.

To add to this I also feel that the company have a very caring ethos which I have appreciated.
Special thanks to Sahil Aggarwal.

“I received the most outstanding service from Sam Carter”

I received the most outstanding service from Sam Carter and his team. I was using the service to negotiate the sale of my home with my ex partner. Sam was worth his weight in gold and managed to negotiate a whopping £8k extra for the my share of equity! (This is £8k extra I have for my little girl from her father who would've quite happily of undercut her.) Without Sam's advice and guidance, I would've walked away from my property with only a fraction of what I was owed.

Sam dealt with my case very sensitively and I would recommend Sam and his team to everyone. He gave me the confidence and drive to make decisions, I wouldn't of ordinarily have made.

I must admit the initial upfront payment was quite scary, but for anyone who may feel deterred by this... Please don't. I cannot put into words how grateful I am.
A huge congratulations to Sam on his promotion, it is so deserved. Thank you

“From the outset Rona put me at ease”

I was recommended Rona Samuel by a friend and colleague. Also cousins of mine both of whom are solicitors. I have never once regretted this decision. From the outset Rona put me at ease. I felt like someone really had my back and gave a damn about me and my case. Rona went above and beyond in order to get the best possible outcome for me in my situation and she did not fail me. She was realistic and honest throughout, a trait I really respected and appreciated .due to Ronas hard work and diligence, I got a better result than I’d ever hoped for. I felt like I really mattered to Rona throughout a really difficult case. I have no reservations in recommending Rona to anyone going through divorce whatsoever, I truly employed an excellent practitioner and left the process with a friend. Xx

“Should I ever need any representation in the future I will definitely return”

I have used Major Family law on two occasions. For a Non-molestation and a Divorce. On both occasions I had Sahil and I can’t praise him enough.

Very fast to respond to my emails and very thorough in chasing the other party and making sure things get done.

In both occasions he represented me and got me a fair a just result. He’s level headed and has your best interests when representing and will fight your corner for you.

Thank you for all your hard work.

Should i ever need any representation in the future I will definitely return and ask for Sahil personally.

“Excellent and tailored support, provided with clear and concise guidance”

“I cannot recommend Major Family Law enough”

I cannot recommend Major Family Law enough. They have an incredibly accessible service which can make often daunting and complex situations much easier to approach and deal with.

Of particular note was my solicitor Anya Harrison, who dealt with my case in an efficient yet empathetic manner, guiding me through the process and providing regular updates. She responded quickly to any questions or concerns I had and allowed us to come to a resolution much quicker than I had originally anticipated. She was an absolute star and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to others or work with her again if needed!

“Sahil Aggarwal was representing the case and has made life very easy”

A very professional and friendly team who will work with you confidentially from start to finish

From a very grateful client

“Communication is very prompt, polite and thorough”

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.

“Stacey Williams was extremely professional and helpful throughout my case”

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”

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.

“The best decision I have ever made and I can't express enough gratitude”

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'd just like to say that we were delighted with the outcome”

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.

“Sahil was knowledgeable and thorough”

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.

“Katie was very reassuring and professional”

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

“Lewis provided me with some excellent advice”

I would highly recommend Major Law. Having read an extremely useful article on their website I was guided through an excellent and easy to use online system which gathered details of my issue. I was then put in touch with the author of the article Lewis Hulatt. Lewis provided me with some excellent advice and was always friendly and accessible.

“He was able to achieve and direct the best outcome for my family”

Highly recommend this solicitors enough for family matters. All staff have been professionally, friendly and respond in a timely matter. We worked with Sam Carter who has not only been an outstanding professional, very knowledgeable with a sensible outlook, but also no-nonsense approach. He takes time to explain processes and options giving his advice and reasoning. Very responsive to emails, enquiries, and also acts in a caring and compassionate manner at court. He was able to achieve and direct the best outcome for my family - I’m not sure how to ever thank him and major family law. Although I hope to never be in position to require this level or expertise and legal support, without a doubt I would use them again in the future. Thank you Sam for everything! The Youngs.

“I found Rona to be highly competent and knowledgeable throughout”

Rona Samuels was recommended to act for me during my divorce.

“Lucinda was always on the ball”

Had my initial preliminary call with Joanne regarding my ongoing divorce and she was excellent. I was given more info and help in the 45 minutes I had with her then I did from my previous solicitor in the last 6 months!

**Update**
After the initial consult with Joanne, I went ahead and used the firm to progress my divorce. I was put in contact with Lucinda, who I must be honest was outstanding in everyway.

Lucinda took the time to explain absolutely everything, different options and what was the most realistic way to progress matters. My ex (& her solicitor) dragged there feet occasionally and Lucinda was always on the ball to chase things up to try and progress things as fast as possible where possible.

My last solicitor from a large well known branch on Grey street in Newcastle was a nightmare, if you have any common sense don't make the same mistake as me, and just go to Major Family Law first!

“Superb professionalism at all times”

Superb professionalism at all times. the staff were lovely, made to feel at ease. We have already recommended Major Family Law to an acquaintance.

Professional. Friendly. Understanding from the start. Was dreading having to get in contact and speak to someone but Anya has made everything so straightforward and simple it's not been a worry. She answers questions fully, makes herself available and keeps me updated every step of the way. I couldn't have imagined my process being an easier!

“I was recommended MFL by a close friend”

I was recommended MFL by a close friend. Mr Aggarwal dealt with my case in an extremely professional but understanding way. All aspects of the process were explained clearly. What is obviously a very emotional time was made all the more tolerable knowing the legal aspects were in competent and safe hands.

I would have no hesitation in recommending the Company should someone find themselves in this difficult position.

“Sahil was fantastic from day one”

Sahil was fantastic from day one. He made the whole experience very easy and was very understanding of my needs. Sahil would keep in contact and would ensure I fully understood each step of the process. I can’t thank Sahil and major family law enough for the fantastic service they provided throughout. They were priced well and quite frankly made an awful experience so much better. I would highly recommend Sahil and major family law if you are going through divorce or other related matters.

“From day one Sahil and his colleagues have been very thorough and efficient”

I can highly recommended Major Family Law for assisting with your legal needs. From day one Sahil and his colleagues have been very thorough and efficient at dealing with my divorce and consent order. Always happy to answer any queries and put me at ease during a stressful and lengthy period. At times I was ready to give up and settle but Sahil's expert knowledge gave me the kick I needed to carry on, and the final outcome was definitely worth it. Thank you.

“Jonathan Dunkley has been tremendously supportive”

Jonathan Dunkley has been tremendously supportive, calmly offering wise advice, and responding promptly to all correspondence, through a challenging case.

“ Joanne's advice was excellent & her approach was very professional”

My first experience of Major Family Law was with Joanne Major in a free one hour telephone consultation . I had filled out an online form in prior to the consultation so Joanne was aware of my situation. I cannot recommend this service highly enough . Joanne's advice was excellent & her approach was very professional whilst at the same time being understanding and compassionate . I came away from the consultation with a great deal of useful information on how to best progress my case .
Thank you.

“His advice was superb, accurate and reliable”

Sam Carter from Major Family Law has been supporting my husband and I with legal advice during a very difficult and complex family matter which concluded late last year. His advice was superb, accurate and reliable, and he consistently described how matters would progress.
Sam's emotional support for us on a personal level was also outstanding and he always returned calls or responded in a timely manner. Whilst family matters are emotive by nature, Sam's approach was calm and empathetic, providing his advice concisely and in detail.
We would have no hesitation in recommending Major Family Law, especially Sam.

“Sam has supported me massively with my child arrangements dispute”

Would highly recommend major family law, would like to thank Sam carter especially. Sam has supported me massively with my child arrangements dispute with an ex-partner, could not fault sam’s work, great attitude and very honest when giving advice. Sam was very focused on the specific issues at hand and in the end got me the result I wanted. Would most definitely use this firm again in the future if I needed to.

“Their incredible support and professionalism they have shown when handling my case”

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank Major Family Law and Stacy Williams in particular for their incredible support and professionalism they have shown when handling my case.

I have been extremely impressed since our very first meeting and cannot recommend her highly enough.

“Lucinda will have left no stone unturned”

First time I have used Major Family Law, I chose them from a Google search and their excellent reviews. I am so glad I did! Lucinda Connell has been excellent, quick to respond to my queries which I find very important at difficult times. Also the responses are explained in simple terms but always very thorough and with sensitivity. I feel very confident that whatever the outcome, Lucinda will have left no stone unturned. If you’re unsure, please do give them a call, you’ll not regret it.

“Highly recommend this established team”

Highly recommend this established team for their family law advice and professional service. I have referred many friends to Joanne Major over the years and shall continue to do so.

“I can't fault his excellent advice and support from start to finish”

First time I've had use a solicitor and chose to use Major Family Law based on their already good reviews posted here. Sam Carter was my appointed solicitor and I cant fault his excellent advice and support from start to finish throughout my child arrangements dispute with my ex partner. Highly recommend.

“Sahil Aggarwal is the consummate professional”

At an emotional and stressful time, I found all those with whom I was in contact, to be calm, kind, helpful and most importantly non judgemental. Sahil Aggarwal is the consummate professional. His communication with me was detailed and timely. His advice was given objectively and in layman's terms, although he still patiently explained when my lack of understanding was apparent. I was also given the impression that Sahil was mindful of the cost to me and did not procrastinate, whilst also did not cut corners.
Major Family Law may not be the cheapest divorce lawyers, but in my opinion the money is worth paying if you want the best.

“Extremely professional and courteous throughout”

I found the services of Sahil extremely professional and courteous throughout and this made the whole process a lot easier and much less stressful. Couldn't recommend them highly enough!

“I was very impressed with their professionalism”

Highly recommended. They've just completed my divorce proceedings and I was very impressed with their professionalism, their high degrees of knowledge and the advice and guidance throughout. Rona was in charge of my case and she was brilliant, a real expert and a very pleasant person. 11/10

“Look no further than Major Family Law”

If you need a specialist Law Firm, look no further than Major Family Law. I cannot praise Stacy Williams highly enough for her caring, sensitive, supportive, kind, encouraging and perceptive manner as my daughter's appointed solicitor.

During a trying year of legal communication with her ex-partner, her legal expertise, advice, and support—along with her meticulous attention to detail and timely responses—were a lifesaver for my daughter.

My daughter reached a successful conclusion as a result of working with Stacy; I cannot express my gratitude to her enough. I believe my daughter will miss their many phone calls and emails because Stacy was so sympathetic to her position.

Stacy is a consummate professional and I have no doubt that she will consistently receive 5-star reviews in the future. I, for one, will without a doubt suggest Stacy to anyone searching for professional legal representation. I can't say enough good things about her, and we wish her luck in the future. I have no doubt she will quickly advance in the legal profession. Stacy, thank you very, very much. Michael & Lorraine Walker

“Jonathan Dunkley was unbelievably helpful”

I contacted Major Family Law for a second legal opinion on a family matter which was proving difficult to resolve. Jonathan Dunkley was unbelievably helpful, supportive and reassuring and gave me brilliant advice which has been invaluable going forward. He was also exceptionally personable and empathetic and put me straight at ease. I would highly recommend Major Family Law and would not hesitate to use them again.

“I always received rapid and useful responses”

I received excellent support and advice from Jonathan Dunkley at Major Family Law throughout the process of the divorce and financial settlement process that has now been completed. I always received rapid and useful responses to my queries and Jonathan assisted me ably through a protracted hybrid mediation process. I have no hesitation in recommending him to you.

“Major Family Law has been amazing”

Major Family Law has been amazing, especially Stacy Williams. I have never had to use a solicitor before but I would highly recommend this firm, Stacy in particular.

She has been supportive every step of the way in my case, always available to reach and I’m never waiting long for an answer or reply, she’s on the ball with everything.

She is fantastic in all areas, I cannot thank her enough, we are only half way through my case currently trying to sort out child arrangements with my ex partner and I cannot fault her.

The support and advice I have received from Stacy herself has been a 5 star service I feel like she puts her everything in to my case and really understands my points I put across.

Absolutely fantastic solicitor, would highly recommend her, she really has took a weight off my shoulders.

“To anyone who is going through something similar pick up the phone and speak to this great firm”

Back in 2020 I applied to the courts for a ‘child arrangement order’ due to a sudden stop in access to my children and some severe allegations that turned my life upside down. I attended the first hearing in Oct 2020 and due to the nature of the accusations it was recommended that I should get some legal representation.

I was lost, in despair and was having terrible thoughts that I may never see my children ever again. I did some searching online for top quality family law specialists. I seen that Major Family Law we’re offering a 45 minute consultation so I thought I’d give them a call to get some further information. How thankful I am to myself that I made this call because I feel without doing so I may not be in the position I am today.

I explained the situation (this was so difficult as I was still in shock that these allegations were even being thrown around) to one of their solicitors Calvin Walker. He is so professional, understanding and excellent at his job. His calm, wise and thoughtful approach to hearings put myself in the best stead to get my points across without feeling any pressure or anxiety. I felt like he genuinely cared and was always on the other end of the phone when I needed legal advise or just reassurance prior to a hearing. Not only that but the paperwork side of things was remarkable! So professional and carefully worded I just knew he had listened to every word I had said and got it on paper. What a gentleman. Master at his work. 100% recommend.

After 2 years (the courts were delayed due to covid) I finally got the result I wanted and seen my kids for the first time which was a great success. I am once again a happy man and I thank Major Family Law for this.

To anyone who is going through something similar pick up the phone and speak to this great firm as they will put you in the best position to get a result you need!

10/10

“I wholeheartedly recommend this firm”

The service offered to me by telephone was first class. Afterwards I understood my best way forward and the current situation facing me. The lawyer didn't pressure me to do anything but offered future help as and when I felt I needed it. I wholeheartedly recommend this firm. Thank you Katie.

“Gave excellent, friendly advice”

Had a free 30 minute telephone consultation with Katie, who, when it became obvious that her firm couldn't provide the services we required, still gave excellent, friendly advice and recommended some solicitors who could. Recommended.

“They handled my case brilliantly with the utmost professionalism”

I used Major Family Law for the past year as I was having problems with my ex-wife and continued to deny/limit time with my son.

I couldn't recommend them enough, they handled my case brilliantly with the utmost professionalism. All correspondence was swift in its timing and left no stone unturned. We only communicated on the phone and by email I never felt this hindered the process. In summary, you want the job done right and the outcome you deserve this is the firm you need to use.

“Wish there was more stars to rate the Major Family Law”

Wish there was more stars to rate the Major Family Law and in particular, Rona Samuel. I've known Rona for couple of years now and have chased her when she moved from her last firm to the Major Family Law as she's always been inclusive, awesome listener but the one thing that I wanted Rona to look after my two divorces (an old unsettled one and a recent one) was the fact that Rona put her clients first .. and she means business! The clarity over the proceeding's steps, what is required, the phone calls or timely communication makes you feel you are in safe hands. What a breath of fresh air every time I see an email from the firm and didn't have to chase nor explain things over and over. Major Family Law, thank you so much for Rona and all the team members that has made my life much easy - you guys rock!

“The best family law lawyer around and I would highly recommend to anyone”

“quick, informative and incredibly sensitive to my situation”

I contacted Major Family Law for further legal advice given difficulties I have been experiencing with my ongoing matter. The response I received was exceptional; they were quick, informative and incredibly sensitive to my situation. For the first time, I genuinely felt that a solicitors firm were genuinely interested in helping me, and not just trying to charge me for services. A seriously great experience, thank you, would recommend to anyone.

“not just extremely knowledgeable and on the ball but kind, considerate, and thoughtful”

Major Family Law especially Sam and Stacy have been not just extremely knowledgeable and on the ball but kind, considerate, and thoughtful, i felt safe and well looked after whilst going through a court case which most people including myself found daunting both Sam and Stacy were there to hold my hand throughout, no question i had went unanswered.

The “Family” in Major Family Law did not go unnoticed, exactly what you need when your circumstances in your own family change.

“Sam understood my concerns and dealt with my case effectively”

From my initial email contact to a consultation with Sam I was treated with fairness and efficiency, Sam understood my concerns and dealt with my case effectively. Sam and Major Family Law fulfilled my needs and I would recommend them and definitely use them again if needed.

“Thank you for honest and frank advice!”

Joanne gave very practical, honest sound advice. Could have taken my case now and invoiced me but recommended next steps go go further independently avoiding unnecessary divorce costs. Definitely use when the time is right. Thank you for honest and frank advice!

“I will definitely return to Joanne for further advice and support”

Joanne is knowledgable and forthright. Just what is needed otherwise I would have spent 45 minutes weeping. She gave sound advice based on law what he gave me a much clearer idea Of what my rights were and what I might expect from a legal process of separation. I will definitely return to Joanne for further advice and support.

“Your advice at every step was exceptional and fair”

Thank you for sorting my case in such a professional and friendly manner. Your advice at every step was exceptional and fair. You gave us peace of mind and confidence. Your team are all helpful and responsive which is refreshing. Many thanks.

“Very professional and sound advice given”

I would like to thank Major Family Law and Sam Carter in particular for dealing with my case very promptly. Sam was approachable and friendly, from the initial consultation to the settling of my case. I am very happy with the outcome and should anything arise in the future, I would not hesitate to contact Major Family Law again. Very professional and sound advice given.

“Sahil's level of professionalism is simply exceptional”

Sahil has been absolutely amazing from beginning to end! He makes you feel at ease by explaining the process clearly. Sahil's level of response and communication is second to none, and he also set expectations clearly to avoid disappointment. Sahil's level of professionalism is simply exceptional! I also dealt with Anya who's brilliant, an excellent communicator and a pleasure to talk to, as well. We don't normally want to be in a position where we need to ask a law firm for their services however, should you need help at a difficult time in your life, I'd certainly recommend 'Major Family Law', and to my friends and family too. Thank You Sahil, Anya and 'Major Family Law'!

“Very knowledgable and helped me understand where I stood from a legal perspective”

I had an excellent consultation with Joanne at Family Law. Very knowledgable and helped me understand where I stood from a legal perspective, where she could provide me with support should I choose to engage her, the potential cost and timescale.

“I could not be any more satisfied”

I would like to thank MFL and specially Stacy W for having helped me through my divorce. I could not be any more satisfied about how quick it's all been. Initial consultation was very helpful already. Since then I have received ongoing support and advice. Thanks a lot!

“Extremely informative and patient”

Could not be happier with the customer service received from Sahil and the reception staff. Extremely informative and patient. Would highly recommend this law firm.

“I will definitely be coming to them again if I need to”

I have been a client of this practice for a year now and have nothing but good things to report. I have a good professional relationship with Calvin which I think is very important when working with someone. He is always very professional, and helpful, and the practice in themselves have accommodated my needs very well throughout the time I have spent as a client here. I will definitely be coming to them again if I need to.

I've made more progress in a few weeks with the team than previous months elsewhere. Would very much recommend to anyone.

“Sam is worth his weight in gold”

Major Family Law and Sam in particular have taken what was a very testing and stressful time for me and achieved the perfect result for me. Both me and my daughter wanted to spend more time together but was prevented by my ex using a CAO which was no longer fit for purpose, as it was drawn up when my daughter was very young. Sam worked Tireless to achieve our aim without the requirement of returning to Court or needing mediation. Sam is worth his weight in gold and has proven to be worth every single penny. I would recommend Major Family Law and Sam without hesitation. Thank you for making this Christmas perfect.

“always on hand to give considered and professional advice.”

Fantastic and very personal service, always on hand to give considered and professional advice. From first contact with Joanne, to working with both Sahil and Stacy, all have been extremely understanding and considerate of a fairly complex situation. I cannot recommend this firm highly enough, they take all the stress away, giving straight, to the point advice and recommendations.

“From the beginning to the end their service is absolutely exceptional”

“guide and support me through a very difficult situation that ended with the best outcome possible”

I could not recommend the services of my Solicitor Sam Carter and his colleagues at Major Family Law enough. From the get go, Sam was able to take stock of my circumstances and quickly understand my predicament, where others had previously struggled, and through his constant professionalism, methodical approach and calm demeanour he was able to guide and support me through a very difficult situation that ended with the best outcome possible.

“they have been most helpful and extremely professional”

Fantastic service from the outset!

“...sensitive to my needs and gave me the best advice for me.”

At a difficult time in your life such as divorce you need the professional advice such as I got from Sahil at Major Family Law. He was sensitive to my needs and gave me the best advice for me. His genuine advice allowed me to get the job done as smoothly as possible (given the antics of my antagonistic ex), while also keeping costs to a minimum.

“The solicitor that I spoke to went above and beyond expectations”

I found my free initial consultation to be informative, the solicitor that I spoke to went above and beyond expectations, I genuinely couldn’t ask for any more from this company. Should I need a solicitor in the future then this will be my first port of call, do not let their name put you off, they are more friendly than the seemingly smaller companies. Thank you major family law.

“...he explained the process, timeframes and expected costs, then kept me informed every step of the way.”

Sahil was great during this journey as he explained the process, timeframes and expected costs, then kept me informed every step of the way.

“They were very knowledgeable and were attentive to the particular situation of my case”

I used Major Family Law to help me with my divorce, which was tricky because my ex-spouse was not cooperative. They were very knowledgeable and were attentive to the particular situation of my case. They gave helpful advice that was personalised to my situation and didn't give me cookie-cutter advice. They are not cheap, but you get what you pay for. I would thoroughly recommend them if you are going through a difficult divorce.

“A very reputable firm of family lawyers whom I recommend without hesitation”

A very reputable firm of family lawyers whom I recommend without hesitation to assist in family law and divorce matters. I was treated with utmost courtesy throughout in a professional and very timely manner.

“I would highly recommend Major Family Law”

I was represented by Lucinda Connell for my divorce and she made the whole process completely stress free. Her professionalism and knowledge resulted in a positive outcome in my case, achieving exactly what I requested. I would highly recommend Major Family Law.

“I would have no hesitation in recommending Major Family Law when in need”

Many thanks to Rona Samuel of Major Family Law who worked tirelessly on my behalf during a very difficult divorce settlement. Her approachable and professional manner exceeded all my expectations and I would have no hesitation in recommending Major Family Law when in need.

“A well-known professional firm of family lawyers”

A well-known professional firm of family lawyers I would highly recommend. Excellent advice and communication from Lucinda Connell and the team. First class service throughout. Thank you again Lucinda.

“...all at an affordable fee. Highly recommended!”

I turned to Major Family Law to assist in a complex private law matter. Calvin Walker was assigned my case and I have been very impressed! He is knowledgeable, reasonable, thorough, honest and; above all else, he takes time to understand my circumstances and represent me professionally - all at an affordable fee. Highly recommended!

“A big thank you to Calvin for leading my case”

A big thank you to Calvin for leading my case through it’s through trials and tribulations. Calvin handled the case excellently. He was very detailed and quick to spot inconsistencies in the other side’s argument.

Family cases are by design emotional and at times when I ‘couldn’t see the wood for the trees’ he was great at explaining complexities of the legal system in relation to my case, to the point where he knew the details of my own case better than I did. He was also always upfront and open about costs and provided a detailed forecast of costs, with further reviews if the direction of the case changed.

His work and briefings with counsel were described by the senior barrister as pretty much perfect, which was key in getting the best result possible. All this done with a good sense of humour when applicable!

The result is I now have the best possible platform to build on going forwards, which would not have been possible without Calvin’s work.

“Exceptional service from Lucinda Connel”

Exceptional service from Lucinda Connell, I would definitely recommend this firm.

With regards to Sahil Aggarwal – now working at Major Family Law,

Sahil worked with me as legal advisor and council during a particularly difficult family situation. I can honestly say at all times I was kept well informed and guided with great professionalism through complex and challenging issues by Sahil. I would describe Sahil as professional, extremely capable of explaining the view the law would take on any aspects raised and was always prepared to listen to the questions before giving good considered advice.

“Sahil is the go to family lawyer and I have no hesitation in recommending him”

I know Sahil Aggarwal in a professional capacity as an employment lawyer. Sahil is the go to family lawyer and I have no hesitation in recommending him.

I contacted Major Family Law having read the reviews and having previously had some challenging involvement with other solicitors. I was a little concerned as I am based in the South of the UK and they are in the North but having made initial contact my concerns were unfounded as with many businesses these days everything is done remotely.

I really only wanted some advice about a past divorce but wanted an honest evaluation of the situation.

From my first email and the almost immediate response from Helen Charlton their Client Manager, the subsequent phone call clarifying my situation and the completion of the very informative on line form, to my virtual meeting a couple of days later with Joanne Major who was understanding, knowledgeable and showed empathy for my situation whilst being totally realistic and managing my expectations. I am hoping I will not need to utilise the services of Joanne following on from her advice, but I would not hesitate in contacting if needed and would certainly recommend to anyone who finds themselves requiring direction or information in this area.

Thank you both

“A well known and professional firm of family lawyers.”

A well known and professional firm of family lawyers. Rona was always quick to respond with clear advice and was incredibly supportive - thank you. Would highly recommend.

I initially reached out to Sam Carter for advice on a relocation matter regarding my two young boys. From the outset Sam was professional and extremely knowledgeable, whilst showing understanding and compassion. From that first meeting, right up until our day in court Sam has been there for us every step of the way, often feeling more like a friend than our legal representation. At times I have just needed to talk things through with Sam for a bit of reassurance and he was always there. I do hope we don't need Sam's services again, but if we do I would go straight back to him and would not hesitate to recommend him to our own friends and family.

Thankfully, the application to move my children was denied, but either way my opinion of Sam would not have changed. He's the best person to have fighting your corner.

“The appointment with Joanne was very informative & helpful, I absolutely recommend this Law Firm”

I had a free initial consultation with Major Family Law & I found both Joanne & Helen to be professional, friendly & easy to talk to. The appointment with Joanne was very informative & helpful, I absolutely recommend this Law Firm. It's clear that all the positive reviews which made me choose this Firm are well deserved.

“Choosing Major Family Law and Charles Waddell to represent with my case is one of the best choices I’ve ever made!”

Choosing Major Family Law and Charles Waddell to represent with my case is one of the best choices I’ve ever made! Mr Waddell went above and beyond to help me get me the best result in my case, he was very professional and took great care in making sure I was understanding of everything that was going on and overall a great bloke to work with! I’d highly recommend Mr Waddell and Major family Law to anyone looking for a solicitor!

“Complete faith in dealing with Joanne Major”

We have very high standards of excellence at Muckle LLP and expect them from people to whom we refer work. In this respect we have complete faith in dealing with Joanne Major and her team of specialist family lawyers as we have heard nothing but good things from our clients about their client care and their capable approach to family law legal services.

“Have referred a number of clients to her. I am very impressed with the quality”

I have known Joanne Major since she established Major Family Law and have referred a number of clients to her. I am very impressed with the quality of her legal advice, her professional and personable approach and that of her able team of experienced Family Lawyers.

“Impressed by both their knowledge of the law and the way they care about their clients”

I’ve worked with everyone on Joanne Major’s team. I’m always impressed by both their knowledge of the law and the way they care about their clients. They are always there for them; being supportive and at the same time giving practical and realistic advice.

“Helped me find an inner strength”

Joanne Major and the team provided me with a first class service before, during and after my divorce. They managed to combine professional excellence with the emotional support and understanding that I needed through the whole process. They helped me find an inner strength in court and achieved results that have allowed me to move on in a financially secure position which without them would never have happened.

“Major Family Law are a rare breed”

I cannot recommend Joanne Major and Major Family Law enough. Her professionalism and personal touch is second to none. She never overcomplicated the issues or wrote unnecessary correspondence. Major Family Law are a rare breed it seems in a profession that attracts sweeping statements, glib remarks and no thanks. She gave me the courage and confidence to see my case through to the end. Her prognosis was right from the outset, her choice of Barrister carefully considered and brilliant, so too is her knowledge of the law. Needless to say the outcome achieved was more than I could have hoped for. Joanne is a true professional and sharp as a tack. I urge anyone looking for a top drawer family law solicitor to look no further.

“Compassionate and professional”

Joanne Major and her team of specialist family lawyers were both compassionate and professional when they dealt with my matrimonial problems. The situation was complicated by my husband, but it was obvious Joanne Major was used to dealing with these sorts of issues. Although she was compassionate, she was still able to give constructive and pragmatic advice and without her assistance I doubt I could have achieved the justice I obtained at the conclusion of my case. I have recently recommended her to a friend whose wealthy husband was unwilling to face up to his responsibilities. She also is impressed about how things are progressing. I would have no hesitation in recommending Joanne Major to others. She is a strong lawyer who leads a strong capable team.

“I went to the right team of lawyers”

Joanne and her team handled my divorce which was a complex matter, and involved cross-jurisdictional child contact. From the first phone call, she took time to explain to me both the human and legal aspects of each step. I needed a great deal of reassurance about my infant daughter and about the financial aspects of my divorce, because it had bearing on my family home which had been gifted to me during marriage. Joanne and her team see the long term picture – resolution, mediation, a sound path forward during a very upsetting time. I went to the right team of lawyers who, under expert liaison with each other, guided me through both financial and contact matters. I am based in Spain and the distance was no barrier. I trust Joanne and her team implicitly.

“Jonathan’s knowledge and approach was excellent”

I was recently introduced to Jonathan Dunkley at Major Family Law having asked around the North East business community for a recommendation in dealing with an intended driving prosecution, Jonathan’s knowledge and approach was excellent, his quick actions saved me precious time and money in dealing with this difficult situation. I’d have no hesitation in recommending Jonathan or Major Family Law to anyone found in such circumstances.

“Nothing was too much trouble”

Jonathan Dunkley was the first person I turned to when I needed advice, having previously used his services some years back. He grasped the complicated legal position from the outset knowing exactly how to sort it all out. Nothing was too much trouble for him. As I was living in the United States and France, I thought this might make things more difficult, but Jonathan was quite able to work remotely and made himself available at all times to suit me. His specialist knowledge guided me through a really difficult process taking away my own stress and frustration. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to other, particularly in cases with an international element.

“Invaluable professional advice”

Joanne Major and her experienced team of family lawyers are first rate. Throughout the most difficult and emotionally challenging time of my life, I was warmly guided and provided with invaluable professional advice. It is possible to reach the light at the end of the tunnel, and rest assured Major family Law are the best people to get you there. I can recommend this law firm in a heartbeat – your future truly is in the safest of hands.

“I do not hesitate in recommending them”

I approached Major Family Law after hearing positive feedback from some divorced friends and acquaintances. The firm is professional, welcoming and non-judgemental. I always received balanced, fair and accurate advice. Major Family Law treats you as an individual and pays attention to your whole person. I was given clear explanations and all emails and telephone calls were answered and dealt with promptly. Joanne Major was prepared for each meeting and always took time to check how I was afterwards. Even when communication broke down between myself and my husband, Major Family Law helped us mediate and helped us get back on the right track for the good of our child. I have since recommended Major Family Law to others in the same situation knowing they could not be in better hands. I do not hesitate in recommending them here and now to you.

“We believe they are the best around”

We consider Major Family Law to be the pre-eminent specialist family law firm in the North East, particularly for complex and/or high value matters. We choose to recommend Major Family Law to our clients because we believe they are the best around.

“A leading family law practice in the area”

Having worked at Major Family Law during my time in England, I had no hesitation in establishing links between my practice in Spain and Major Family Law. A leading family law practice in the area, with an innovative approach to their business, I was impressed with the high standard of client care and the expertise of the individual lawyers during my time at the practice, and I know that this will ensure that clients based in either Spain or England will receive the best possible advice and service.

“A wealth of collaborative experience”

Joanne Major has a wealth of collaborative experience. Her delivery is strong and confident with a no nonsense approach that I came to trust. This is invaluable when clarity and action is required. Major Family Law were highly recommended to me and I would have no hesitation to pass that recommendation on.

“The brilliant team at Major Family Law”

I sincerely thank my Specialist Family Lawyer for her professionalism, dedication and first rate attention throughout the process of divorce. I shall forever be grateful to have chosen Major Family Law to assist me because as expected, it has been a painful and emotional journey but knowing I had the benefit of my solicitor’s expertise, skill and reassurance at all times helped carry me through the tough times. Without hesitation I would strongly recommend the brilliant team at Major Family Law.

“Available to help and offer sensible and pragmatic advice”

After years of uphill struggles and continuous trips to court, I finally turned to Major Family Law for help. Sam Carter took charge of the case and the work carried out by him was nothing short of first class. Sam was always available to help and offer sensible and pragmatic advice, and the end result was one that I never could have imagined. I have no difficulty whatsoever in recommending the firm, and in particular Sam, to anyone in times of need.

“I cannot recommend Jonathan highly enough”

Jonathan Dunkley is a credit to Major Family Law and his Profession. In a world very alien to my own, his expertise, professionalism and clarity during the entire difficult process made me feel confident and reassured my case was in his capable hands. His support, confidence, and knowledge of his subject area were second to none. Jonathan achieved exactly the outcome that I had hoped for. A huge weight has now been lifted from my shoulders as my case has been successfully concluded. I cannot recommend Jonathan highly enough.

“Positive attitude and practical approach”

I have worked as a family mediator in Surrey for a number of years. It really helps the mediation process where the solicitors giving the clients advice understand how the mediation process works, and work to help the clients achieve a resolution in mediation. I have found Lewis Hulatt really understands the mediation process and how best to support it. This gives his clients the best chance of finding a sensible resolution. His positive attitude and practical approach work well with mediation, and that makes him the kind of solicitor that I like to work with.

“Family lawyer of high calibre and drive”

Having worked with Joanne Major at a large commercial firm some years ago, I am aware she is a family lawyer of high calibre and drive. During a short period of time she has put together an excellent team of intelligent, approachable lawyers who deliver first rate family law services to clients. We as a firm are happy to recommend them.

“Impressed with the way he understands the wider picture”

I have known Lewis Hulatt in a professional capacity for some years and I have been impressed with the way he understands the wider picture and our needs as a family. I found him sensitive to what would help me achieve our long-term goals and he was approachable whenever I needed a calm and independent opinion. He showed himself to be flexible and I never felt pressured to use a legal sledge-hammer to crack a nut of a problem.

“Comprehensive, practical, realistic, and reassuring”

I have known Joanne Major professionally for 20 years and have recommended her many times. When men or women suffer difficulty in their private lives, Joanne offers light in the form of comprehensive, practical, realistic, and reassuring Family Law Advice with the result that people can find their way through difficult and dark times.

“Her team have proved to be top notch”

I met Joanne Major many years ago and was impressed by her drive and professionalism when she established her own firm. She has dealt with the marital issues of many of our clients and the feedback from them has always been excellent. We continue to refer clients to Joanne as both she and her team have proved to be top notch. Our clients inform us that Joanne is a consummate professional but tough. At the same time she is the modern face of advice on family law.

“She is a very bright lady with an equally bright team”

From the moment I met Joanne Major and her team it was clear to me that she is a very bright lady with an equally bright team. They are innovators and put their clients first. People might think that all solicitors put their clients first, it is easy to say but very hard to do. As a solicitor myself, I can see that Joanne Major and her team strive to work in the best way possible to achieve the best outcome for the client. This means thinking outside the box and daring to be different. The team at Major family law dare to be different and their clients benefit from this.

“We can trust them to understand what is at stake”

Joanne Major and her team are the “Go To” for any clients or contacts who come to us asking if we know any good family lawyers. We can trust them to understand what is at stake and treat each client as an individual, taking time to listen, explain & advise as we would do when faced with commercial legal issues.

“Joanne Major quickly grasps the facts and interprets them”

Joanne Major quickly grasps the facts and interprets them in a sympathetic but matter of fact way, making the client and professionals recommending her feel confident with the handling of their affairs. A true professional at a time when expertise and excellence is needed most.

“Both knowledgeable and approachable family lawyers”

We are happy to endorse the services provided by Joanne Major and the team at Major Family Law, Ponteland. We have a number of mutual clients who speak very highly of them. They are both knowledgeable and approachable family lawyers who are clearly client focussed.

“His knowledge and ability to communicate very effectively with my clients has enhanced my relationship”

I have known Christian, in a professional capacity, for several years now. He has assisted me in looking after my clients in various matters including Wills, Lasting Powers of Attorneys and Administering Estates. His knowledge and ability to communicate very effectively with my clients has enhanced my relationship with them. I have had nothing but good feedback. Some even say he has a good sense of humour!

“Found them professional, knowledgeable and empathetic”

I have worked with Joanne Major and her team and have found them professional, knowledgeable and empathetic and would have no hesitation in recommending them to clients.

“Her drive and ambition have always impressed me”

I have known and worked with Joanne Major since her early years in practice. Her drive and ambition have always impressed me and, I believe, she has now built a significant niche practice in family law. I am happy to recommend her.
