Client Testimonials
"I was impressed with the professional way Carolynn Tan dealt with my divorce. She handled the, at times, extremely challenging opposition with integrity and professionalism. Carolynn made an intolerable situation more bearable. Thank you."
Husband
"Emma listened to my emotions and the concerns I had whilst getting divorced and gave me down to earth and honest legal advice.
"Getting divorced is one of the most difficult things I have gone through but Emma and her assistant Lauren were friendly, approachable and understanding. Emma provided me with the best legal representation I could have had."
Wife
“Quite simply, Jemma has been a real ‘gem’. I admire Jemma for guiding me firmly, yet gently, through the daunting and difficult divorce journey, which at times I thought would never end. Jemma, has always maintained a professional, highly knowledgeable and resolute support.”
Wife
“My divorce was particularly complicated, but miraculously Carolynn Tan managed to sort out everything in a calm, efficient manner. Carolynn had amazing patience, and dealt with my whole situation professionally.
“With solicitors like Carolynn Tan, it is possible to come out of a very hostile situation and end up with a positive result. I cannot recommend Carolynn enough. There were so many complications, but she dealt with each one calmly (and helped me to feel calm, when there were times I thought I would never get through it).”
Husband
"From my first meeting with Emma Newman, she was professional and also very supportive, at a very emotional time for me.
"Even though she was very busy, she was always good at getting back to me if I needed her. She was fantastic at responding to my emails and when she went on leave, my case was covered by people who had access to all the material so that there was continuity of service.
“Emma recommended the barrister who represented me and I was really surprised at just how well briefed she was on my case. I could tell she was familiar with all the background so there was no need for me to go over all the details again with someone else. Emma was very switched on and that made a massive difference."
Wife
When going through a divorce, it helps to have the assistance of an experienced professional who understands your situation.
Finding herself in that situation, RP turned to Guillaumes on the strength of a recommendation from her family’s solicitor and, although the divorce itself is not yet finalised, the service she has received has already prompted her to recommend the firm to others.
Dealing with Guillaumes partner Carolynn Tan, RP finds that the firm not only keeps in regular contact with her but responds to her telephone calls quickly and efficiently.
She says: “Guillaumes are very understanding and non-judgemental. I am able to talk with them in a friendly way, rather than in a business-like manner, as they are very approachable.
“I have already recommended them to other people.”
Wife
Dealing with the estate of a loved one is a task few people relish, but having on board a solicitor who is both understanding and approachable can make a significant difference to the situation.
This was certainly the experience of RB when she was dealing with the estate of her late mother, who passed away last year.
RB had in the past worked in an administrative role for Gosling & Wilkinson and already knew the Guillaumes name well, long before the two firms merged.
In fact, her experience at solicitors’ practices had already given her an understanding of how the probate process worked, particularly as she had helped clients with probate matters herself.
She has nothing but praise for Guillaumes and, in particular, partner Neil Sapsed, who handled her mother’s estate.
She says: “Neil was absolutely super to talk to. He did everything I had asked him to and he had even answered my questions before I got there.
“Neil was extremely approachable. When I used to work for solicitors, I loved to break down boundaries with clients, which worked, and this is what they did.
“They never kept me waiting; my messages would always go through and my calls were always returned. If Neil wasn’t available, then his secretary, Jan, always made herself available to me.”
RB was so pleased with the service she received that she has already recommended Guillaumes. She is currently dealing with the team in a power of attorney matter on behalf of a neighbour.
She says: “I really wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone. They have good values.”
