Both Louisa and Phoebe helped me with my very difficult divorce. Without their knowledge and expertise, I could not have gotten the result I did. I am so very grateful for their assistance.

Client

I couldn’t be happier with the service I received. Louisa was clear, professional, and highly efficient from start to finish. She explained every step of the process in plain terms, provided timely updates, and handled the case with care and precision, even when things were delayed on the other side. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Louisa or Hay & Kilner to anyone needing support with a family law matter

Client

Louisa was fantastic from start to finish. She listened, understood my perspective, and shared my goals. I appreciated her honesty, advice, timely communication, and tenacity in settling the divorce.

Client

Louisa has been fantastic to deal with from start to finish. She listened, she understood my perspective and what was important to me, and as a result we shared the same goals to work towards from the onset. I really appreciated her honesty and advice throughout, her timely communication and her tenacity to get the divorce settled.

Client

From our first meeting with Louisa we felt we were in safe hands. Her honest and straight-talking approach were appreciated in a situation which felt overwhelming and hugely stressful for us to navigate. My partner and I are incredibly grateful to Louisa and her team for their guidance, reassurance and dedication throughout.

Client

The help that Hay & Kilner gave to us when we were fighting a Court case was absolutely invaluable, in particular I would like to give thanks to Louisa Bestford, who guided us through what was a very difficult time. Her commitment and integrity were absolutely second to none! We won the case hands down but we could not have done it without her legal expertise and guidance. I can unreservedly recommend this Firm!!
