Divorce is a strenuous and painful exercise. Like anybody else we didn’t knew where to start. When we tried to find solicitor we had numerous questions - how does it work ? How much it cost? What timeframe we are taking? What are my rights? What are my chances? Where does my case stand given my own circumstances as each case is different? Would my solicitor understand? Can I trust my solicitor?
With all these questions we started to search for solicitors. Spoke to numerous to begin with and immediately got hit with roadblocks and bureaucrat and red tape. All solicitors wanted monies without

I met with Richard in June last year. Richard showed discretion and compassion in such a sad situation, as all divorces usually are.
He gave me such valuable advice, and I cant thank him enough. I am not at the end of my journey to a new chapter yet.. But I'm glad that it is Sharp family law that have been my travelling companion on my stormy journey.
