Reviews

I had the luck to have Peter on my side. The type of divorce that should not go through the courts as mentioned by couple of judges, but dealing with inflictive controlling spouse, there was no other way. Peter helped me to guide me through the storm, always trying to find solution while courageously balancing the imbalance in relationship. Peter has been recommended to me and I am gladly passing the recommendation on.

I couldn't recommend Peter Dadswell enough. He's been outstanding throughout. In very difficult circumstances and through the toughest times of my life. Its been reassuring knowing I've had Peter in my corner. Advising me on what I should and shouldn't be doing but also making me aware of the financial costs on a regular basis so I didn't insure any unexpected costs. I'm sure my estranged wife in hindsight wishes she had got Peter before me. Thank you so much Peter. I will be forever grateful.

I would very much like to thank Peter Dadswell for all his support in helping me navigate throughout what has been an extremely stressful process. It is not a journey I chose to travel through, but from our first meeting to discuss my situation and having his honest, knowledgeable and guiding support throughout is something that I will never be able to thank him enough for.

I always felt very comfortable with asking questions, no matter how small, to understand a difficult process. Communications were very good and I always felt comfortable throughout the process. Having a friendly understanding solicitor who showed empathy and kindness helped me lots with my struggles to understand what was expected of me.
