Austin Kemp | "Best Rated" Divorce Firm

I engaged Juliet Walker to sort out a relationship issue. I can honestly say that she was absolutely superb and would recommend her to anyone looking for a family or matrimonial lawyer. She sorted out a very difficult situation knowledgeably and professionally.

Alex Clarke 'The Saviour' Alex has been very active in dealing with my case, he made me feel comfortable everytime we communicated and he made sure that I understood every single thing he would share with me during the process and even prior to the process, he would also respond promptly to calls and emails. Alex did invest his time in my case prior to any type of a previous agreement, that to me has suggested the level of integrity of his persona subquenlty to that I made the decision that he would shortly be representing me in what was deemed necessary. Alex Clarke " The Saviour " is the name you need when contacting the firm for issues related to your children.

I would like to thank Jennifer Hollyer for all the hard work, and the effort she put into my case. I was going through a difficult time emotionally and Jennifer showed compassion and empathy for my situation, most importantly she believed me.    Jennifer would go above and beyond to ensure there was no inaccuracies in my Statements that were submitted to Court, which meant she worked on evenings / weekends to get it right. She was very thorough and transparent throughout the duration of my Court proceedings.   Jennifer provided an excellent service, where she was easily contactable and if she wasn’t available, she responded as soon as she could. I never had to follow up or chase Jennifer, she responded promptly.    I had the best solicitor for my Child Contact case. It’s a shame, my engagement with Jennifer wasn’t in the best scenarios for me but I was very happy with my decision of reconnecting with her again after a previous engagement I had with her at a different Law Firm.

On the back of recommendation, I enlisted the help of Bik Wong, who was incredible from start to finish. I found her to be efficient, professional, and incredibly thorough in every aspect of my divorce. I would highly recommend Austin Kemp. Lucretia

I recently used Austin Kemp for my divorce and it was all done efficiently and in a pleasant manner. I always dealt with the same person and that made the whole process easier. It was also all done online which meant no appointments needed to be made and therefore it was all very convenient. The necessary evil of payment was done using their online payment system which was very straightforward to use. Not planning on getting divorced again but if I did I would happily use Austin Kemp again

I used Austin Kemp having been referred to them through an online service for my divorce and having agreed a financial settlement with my ex wife. Emma at Austin Kemp was very helpful throughout and I was able to pay them for a guidance check on the consent order before submitting it. All went through the courts with no problems and I’m pleased with the end result. There are additional fees to pay if you rwspond to emails or ask a question which the agreement does state but there were times I didn’t understand why I was charged to reply to a question I was asked but on the whole the service is very good value. My whole divorce and consent order cost just under £2,000 all in which between my ex wife and myself is a bargain.

Kieth Wivell was helpful and professional in getting me through my divorce. He always gave me updates and helpful me understand everything I needed to do. Yes £420 an hour is a lot, but having faith in someone is priceless! You get what you pay for, and he helped me to achieve a great deal. Lorna was very helpful and lovely too, checking up on me. Thank you again to Kieth, Lorna and Austin Kemp! Great company

Honest and trustworthy solicitors, would highly recommend!! *****

Keith wivell was great he explained everything clearly and was very efficient, he done a great job. Lorna deighton was also very helpfull also thank you all much appreciated. Would recommend these to anyone. 👍

Emma Clowes really worked hard at getting my divorce through. It was a very challenging process and Emma supported my process till the end. I do appreciate your efforts even when my frustrations were off the limit and you would still respond in a positive and supportive manner. Thank you and i hope you continue doing a great job with the rest of your training in Law.

Ms Bik Wong stood by my side on an extremely complicated case for the last 2 years. She went head to head with what felt like an army of firms by herself (very successfully brushing them off). Ms Bik went above and beyond working relentlessly to win my case. She achieved the best possible outcome for me and my family, despite what was thrown at us in the last 2 years. These cases can be extremely stressful on one - but Ms Bik approaches you with sympathetic professionalism that gives you the reassurance you need during difficult times. If you’re using Ms Bik - you’re in safe hands, If Ms Bik is working for your firm - you’re lucky, if you’re thinking of going with Ms Bik - don’t hesitate and lastly if you’re the opposition - GOOD LUCK.

I instructed Austin Kemp in 2016, we worked together until May 2022, Simon Rosenthall and team were excellent all the way through.

Used Austin Kemp to complete a Consent Order after divorce as didn’t do this during the divorce process. Case was handled by Emma Clowes who was incredibly helpful throughout, responding to my many questions and concerns. The process was quite long, however court timings played a part in that and Emma kept me up to date. The overall cost to complete the order was very competitive compared to prices I obtained from other solicitors. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

Austin Kemp recently dealt with my divorce and helped to get a satisfactory result for me. I was kept up to date at every stage, given honest advice, not just what I wanted to hear and was dealt with in a professional but sensitive manner. I would highly recommend them as divorce lawyers

I have been working with Austin Kemp for the past two years in my defended divorce case. They have done a very good job in making sure I was up to date with the latest development and issues and delivered high quality work and in line with my expectations. My solicitor was Sara Armistead, who has done an excellent job in making sure I am well prepared for my case, which resulted in me getting the best outcome out of my final trial.

I thoroughly recommend Austin Kemp. I was made to feel safe .The whole process for my divorce was explained to me at each step of the way I was kept up to date with what was happening with my case. I had a difficult complicated case that’s caused a lot of stress but Austin Kemp sorted it all out in the end. Very understanding and caring . Would highly recommend them .

I was allocated Austin Kemp after paying for a consent order package online. I worked with Emma throughout the whole process who was informative and who dealt with any issues as they arose. I have no complaints at all, the consent and pension sharing order were approved in court within days of submission so clearly the documents were completed to the correct standard. My advice would be to read the terms and conditions carefully as you will incur additional charges along the way which are listed clearly in monthly invoices. I personally have struggled to understand why some emails were chargeable and some were not, but overall I have been happy with the service.

Austin Kemp have been very thorough and dealt with my divorce swiftly. The service I have received has been very good I would recommend them to others needing this type of service.

Terrible experience with this firm. I genuinely feel like they used Covid as an excuse to do as little work as possible, while billing as much as possible. In 9 months they did nothing to advance my case, and were a nightmare to keep in touch with, either just not replying to emails or taking months to do so. I have made an official complaint and they even charged me for reading and responding to that, despite the fact that I sacked them several months ago. Will be escalating to the ombudsman. It is worth noting that they go to a great deal of time and effort to get negative reviews removed also, so the overall rating on this site is not to be trusted. Avoid. EDIT - After Austin Kemp replied to this review below, they have now seen fit to send me a letter threatening Legal Action for defamation unless I take this down. I stand by the review as an honest rating on my experience with this firm, which only keeps getting worse. I will not be intimidated into removing a negative review by threats. One can only wonder how many other negative reviews have been removed in this way?

I contacted Austin Kemp to handle my divorce, I have been very satisfied with the response by way of being easy to follow forms , very prompt service, clear billing and a generally a very positive experience that is helpful and professional . I am happy to recommend them to anyone seeking a solicitor for a family law matter.
