My initial contact with Stowe Family Law was at a free initial consultation at their Ilkley office. I was caught up in a very unhappy marriage and had the needs of a very young child to consider. I was fortunate enough to be seen by Amy Foweather, who listened carefully to my situation and gave me some very practical advice as to the choices that lay ahead of me, and the personal/financial impact that each of those choices would entail. Amy did not attempt to give me the ‘hard sell’ or persuade me down a particular route; rather she equipped me with the information I needed, and her contact details, and allowed me time to come to my own decision. When I finally found the opportunity to leave my marriage – last thing on a Friday afternoon! – Amy was there on the end of the phone and waited late in the office to meet me and my son on our way to take refuge with my parents. She kick-started the legal process immediately, providing reassurance and advice every step of the way. At each stage of the divorce and ensuing custody/financial proceedings, she has gone above and beyond my expectations and has been a champion for my cause all the way, even when I myself sometimes had lost faith or was fearful of next steps. Amy and all of her colleagues with whom I interacted, including Amy’s secretary Lynda Taylor, were always caring, thorough, professional and highly effective. I would have no hesitation at all in recommending Amy, and Stowe Family Law, to others. Ruth Hodge
