Brodies LLP

I found kate bradbury to be an excellent solicitor who’s knowledge, patience, support and negotiation skills enabled a smooth settlement and divorce. highly recommend her as a solicitor for any/all family law issues.

The service i got from brodies was great. my lawyer kate bradbury was very professional, was calm and reassuring, and explained things clearly without being patronising. any queries i had were always quickly responded to, and i knew i could call her any time i needed to. kate made a tough emotional situation as simple as it could be for me, and helped me at each step. i also got my will done by brodies which was extremely simple and quick to do. i would recommend brodies and consider using them again.

Throughout 2022 donna mckay has help me through a difficult personal situation, and indeed picked up my case at very short notice after a personal recommendation. she was extremely professional and understanding at all times. her expert civil knowledge and advice was second to none. i would recommend her for anyone facing a similar situation. in addition, donna did not hesitate to consult with colleagues within brodies in other expert areas to ensure the best possible service was provided at all times. i honestly can’t thank her enough.

I highly recommend lydia mclachlan whose professional and experienced counsel and skill was integral in negotiating a particularly complicated divorce settlement with an international dimension. i especially appreciated her instinct and resolve in contentious matters, knowing when to hold the line, and holding that line with grit and determination to achieve a positive outcome. lydia showed great sensitivity and empathy in dealing with matters affecting the welfare of children and was able to command a wealth of expertise due to her excellent network of relationships here in aberdeen and edinburgh but also overseas.

Associate lawyer kate bradbury of brodies represented me regarding a co-habitation dispute. she was extremely professional and supportive throughout, ensuring she had an understanding of my individual circumstances. kate also ensured that she was efficient whilst providing her services so that i didn't have to pay for any more of her time than necessary. kate responded to all e-mails in a timely fashion and offered excellent advice. i was very pleased with the services she provided.
