Henry graciously provided his time for a consultation. I found him to be highly knowledgeable, empathetic and he provided excellent advice which put my mind at ease. Would highly recommend Henry and his firm.

Henry Brookman went above and beyond during the free consultation, and even overran the allocated time. He provided invaluable professional advice in a courteous manner. I recommend his firm without reservation.

I only had my initial free review with Amelia yet I already feel much more strengthened in my legal and financial position. I am currently reflecting on the steps I want to take to negotiate my desired outcome of the financial settlement but, when I am ready to use the services of a lawyer, Amelia is definitely the top on my list.

I had a zoom consultation with Lauren Moir and she was incredible. Very patient, insightful and reassuring. She also advised me based on my previous conversations with another firm and also clarified various positions I am in. Highly recommend.

I had a first consultation with Kevin, who very diligently and professionally provided an exhaustive overview of the divorce process and the best approach for my specific case.

Spoke to a kind solicitor this morning who took an hour of her time to talk me through some advice relating to a difficult separation.... She was clear and helpful with her advice, leaving me feeling much more confident with the process ahead of me.
Jun 2023 Luke Taylor
Mr Brookman provided very clear advice that left me with no doubt about the options and next steps. Getting specific advice with the requirements in the different jurisdictions was particularly useful so I won’t need to consult another lawyer outside of the UK

From initial contact I found all staff extremely helpful and professional. My options were made clear, my query was dealt with in a sympathetic way. Would highly recommend Brookman Solicitors.

The initial consultation I have just completed with Henry Brookman was very informative; he was very open and honest about my situation, the legalities of the matter and the extent of how his firm could help. He was also very upfront about the expected costs of the various options I could pursue and I feel very satisfied with the service I have received.
Nov 2022 Kimberley Noakes
From our short consultation, I got everything I needed. Assurance that they can handle my case, options that I wasn't aware of, and a clear timeline.

I recently had a consultation with Natasha Slabas at Brookman Solicitors. I was extremely impressed with the time and care she took in understanding my situation and in providing very detailed and considered advice.

Very quick to respond, and Henry took the time out to quickly and expertly advise me on complicated matters of international law in an easily understandable way. Thank you Victoria and Henry for your professionalism and help.

I highly recommend Jennifer Douglas as a divorce solicitor who gave me invaluable advice and representation over a 3 and 1/2 year period. Her international expertise and recommendations for barristers and financial expert advice were most helpful. She is professional, knowledgeable and kind. Thank you for everything, Jennifer!

I am judicious in investing my time in reviews. Saying that Amelia Groom is very good would be an understatement. She is clearly an intelligent, well-informed, honest and experienced solicitor. She listened carefully, reflected on the specifics of my case and was able to come up with options and potential actions that will be in my favour. Her knowledge of the rules around financial settlements in divorce/civil partnership dissolution were truly impressive.
She was thorough, attentive to details and informative on what a Judge or Barrister may consider guided by the law. I say MAY because she made it clear that the legal limitations on judges - as well as the variables in a case - and how he/she may consider them are not guaranteed. I had spoken to two other solicitors and communicated by email with a third. Their advise was more generic and vague without going into the depth that Amelia did. I only had my initial free review with Amelia yet I already feel much more strengthened in my legal and financial position. I am currently reflecting on the steps I want to take to negotiate my desired outcome of the financial settlement but, when I am ready to use the services of a lawyer, Amelia is definitely the top on my list.

I recently had a zoom meeting with Talitha Brookman of Brookman solicitors, re my upcoming divorce.
I was very impressed with her professionalism and in-depth legal knowledge of my case, and the positive advice I was presented with.
We over ran time wise and at no point did I feel rushed ,on the contrary, Talitha didn’t let me go until she felt I had all my questions satisfactorily answered.
I had received very negative advice previously, so talking to Talitha, gave me a whole new perspective on my case, and that it wasn’t a lost cause, quite the contrary.
I have no hesitation in recommending Talitha and her team, and wish I had met her sooner.
I look forward to working together with her in the future.
Note: the first advice is not always the best advice. Keep looking if your not happy with what your being advised. You will know when you meet the right person. They will have your best interests at heart, but also the in-depth legal knowledge to back that up,as I have found in Talitha.
I now feel confident to proceed, in the knowledge I have a solid legal advisor by my side.
