Testimonials

”I was lucky to have Christine McNeish act for me in my recent protracted divorce. Right from the initial meeting I knew I was in safe hands. She clearly explained how the complex process ”that is divorce” could be navigated to give both parties a fair outcome and reassured me of my position and future finances. She was very clear about what she thought I could expect from the split of assets and maintenance payments. Whilst her feathers were never ruffled she did have teeth when she needed to represent my position. I found the whole experience both emotional and complex, but always new Christine would be “on it“ in her calm reassuring way. She was accessible and happy to talk things through on the phone and when we did have a meeting I always came out feeling much more positive than when I went in. I am very happy to recommend her services to anyone going through this difficult and unfortunate process”. Anna Simons
After a difficult time with a different firm, Berlad Graham we’re recommended to me by a friend. I can honestly say that from my first introduction to the completion of my divorce the service, humanity and honesty were second to none. Hoping I won’t need this service again but would use the company again and would highly recommend. Thank you to Sharon and Christine for getting me through the process with kindness and compassion.
