Family case and divorce support

Separation and divorce are life changing events and Lindsey Britland dealt with the family matters associated with the children and the financials of my divorce with compassion and respect. She was clear on the process, legalities and presented the range of scenarios and options at each stage. She provided timely advice and supported with professionalism throughout the process.

Sprawy Rodzinne

W roku 2022 znalazłem się w sytuacji, w której potrzebowałem porady prawnej. Znajomy, który korzystał wcześniej z takiej pomocy polecił mi, abym udał się do kancelarii Waldron&Schofield solicitors. Prawnicy z tej kancelarii wspomagali mnie na każdej sprawie sądowej przez okres 3lat. Sprawy sądowe były prowadzone bardzo profesionalnie i rzetelnie. Za każdym razem wychodząc z sądu byłem zadowolony z działań moich prawników. Przede wszystkim Bardzo chciałbym podziękować Pani Lindsey Britland,Katarzynie Kot Herbert i Ilonie Lis, a wszystkim którzy będą potrzebowali porad prawnych i wsparcia polecam właśnie tę kancelarię.

Once again, thank you.

I would like to thank Roberto for his help and support in dealing dealing with a recent case for my son. He was professional, caring and showed great sensitivity. He went above the cause of duty in his handling of the case. He made a very traumatic and stressful situation easy to bear. I will be eternally grateful to him. He is a great asset to McHale & Co.

Client Review for Joanne — Property Sale Solicitor
Joanne provided an exceptional service throughout the sale of our property. Her ability to communicate in clear, accessible language made the entire process far less daunting, and we always felt informed and supported at every stage. She kept us consistently updated, handled matters with efficiency, and was an absolute pleasure to deal with. Professional, personable, and highly competent — we couldn’t have asked for better representation. I highly recommend

We had the pleasure of working with Nicole Frankiewicz from McHale & Co during the process of purchasing our home, and we couldn’t be more grateful for her support. Nicole was incredibly helpful, always available to answer our questions, and consistently went above and beyond to assist us.

Her professionalism, patience, and clear communication made a stressful process much easier to navigate. We always felt that she had our best interests at heart and truly cared about helping us every step of the way.

We highly recommend Nicole to anyone looking for a reliable and dedicated solicitor. Thank you, Nicole, for everything you’ve done for us!
