Services
We're the largest specialist team of family lawyers in the UK. And every one of us wants the same thing: to help more clients get what they need today, so they can move on tomorrow. In the year that American actress Elizabeth Taylor finalised her 7th divorce (1982), Stowe Family Law opened its first office in a converted cobblers shop in Leeds.
Here, we work hard to make family law easier to understand and know that each case is unique - each one needing tailored support and handled with care. We guide our clients through the divorce process with empathy and care and the reassurance that they have the right team of people by their side.
We pick up the conversations that our clients cannot face and, with our extensive experience in divorce, give people the details they need to make any difficult decisions along the way with confidence.With our support, clients navigate through the divorce process and move forward in life with a renewed strength.

Take advantage of our fixed fee package for your divorce so you have clarity over your costs from the beginning without comprising service, guidance and standards. Having a clear idea of costs upfront can help remove some of the financial uncertainties divorce can bring. To help, we offer a fixed fee divorce package for couples looking to dissolve their marriage without any financial and property disputes or child arrangements.
Expert civil partnership dissolution lawyers with first-class legal advice and a strong record of success in resolving disputes across a range of circumstances. Just as people in a civil partnership benefit from the same rights as married couples in terms of tax benefits, pensions and inheritance; ending a civil partnership provides the same entitlements as a spouse who gets divorced.
Draw upon our years of experience and child-centred approach for help with child maintenance payments. Our team of child maintenance solicitors are here to help get the best outcome for you. Child maintenance is paid by one spouse to the other after divorce, but what can you expect to pay? Following a divorce, dissolution or separation, it is important to ensure that any children from that relationship are provided for.

Divorcing a narcissist can be more difficult than being married to one.
Thankfully I took a friend’s advice to get the best solicitor firm in Harrogate.
A huge thank you to Kate Sarsfield for being there every step of the way throughout a very difficult divorce and for choosing a great barrister.
Also to everyone at Stowe’s family law who helped and was always there to answer any questions.
A quote that says everything about my divorce:
Whoever said money can’t buy happiness clearly never paid for a divorce.
From a very happy client.

Having to go through the most traumatic experience of my life I was really grateful to have Kate Sarsfield by my side. She understood my problems both from a sympathetic personal point of view but also with a full understanding of my rights within the law. She dealt with all of my issues with my ex partner with nothing but professionalism, even though it took a very long time to get to the end she always had time to discuss and advise on my concerns. Thanks Kate.

I dealt with Kate at Stowe Family Law for over 2 years whilst sorting out financial matters with my ex partner and his family. From the start, Kate filled me with confidence and handled matters very professionally - despite my ex being very difficult to communicate with. Kate made sure I approved of all steps taken and I would 100% recommend their services. Thank you for helping me move on with my life!

I received a professional service from David Milburn, my Divorce solicitor, throughout the two years we worked together to reach a settlement. Divorce is a tricky time and he dealt with my situation with empathy and was objective in the handling of my case. We had a good rapport and I was able to speak honestly about my financial needs. His support staff, Jo Childs, was also extremely helpful at keeping me in the picture. I can recommend Stowe to anyone in my situation.

I was impressed and reassured by Matthew Mile’s knowledge, professionalism and all the hard work he put in for us. Moreover, I am forever grateful for his patience and his empathy, which helped guide me through such a difficult time. He is a credit to your company, and whilst I hope neither I nor anyone I care about ever has to go through anything remotely similar, I would not hesitate to recommend Stowe Family Law and Matthew in particular.

I have only praise for the whole team at Stowe Family Law, from my initial phone call right through to the end of my actual divorce I was dealt with professionally. Everyone that I encountered was knowledgeable and were always able to explain everything that was happening in terms I could understand.
I would fully recommend their services if you find yourself in the unfortunate predicament of needing them. The advice they gave was well informed and it made a potentially stressful process manageable.
Special thanks to David Milburn who made himself available whenever I needed help and advice.

My experience with Stowe Family Law was with Kate Sarsfield. I have nothing but praise for her. I was highly impressed with her availability and prompt responses to my queries. I found her to be exceptionally efficient in keeping the momentum, and coming up with a solution to any situation that she faced. She was so supportive and approachable through what had been an extremely difficult time, and always provided me with sound professional advice. From start to finish, it has been such a pleasure. Kate helped me achieve the best possible outcome, and I really cannot recommended her highly enough

Mark Christie provided me with exceptional support throughout a very difficult divorce. His professionalism and robust attention to detail are second to none. He gave me hard facts alongside solid advice and guidance throughout the whole process. His robust and pragmatic approach was reassuring and I certainly felt Mark shouldered the burden of my divorce allowing me to sleep at night knowing I had an excellent solicitor acting for me.
I will always be grateful to Mark and would highly recommend him, more so I'm certainly grateful he was in my corner!
