I approached Harbour Family Law after having received a disappointing service from another Law firm. My case was handled by Katy Zikking, who provided advice that demonstrated a deep understanding of the law surrounding my situation. Her professionalism enabled me to achieve a resolution that I had previously thought was going to cost me a lot more time and money than it has. During briefings Katy quickly assimilates information and gives excellent advice based on that information and her legal knowledge. Whilst being very approachable and friendly to me, Katy showed that she was more than capable of defending me in the face of bullying tactics from her opponent in my case. I would have no hesitation recommending her.

Katy acted for me in the Collaborative process. We had tried mediation with another solicitor and taken three long, tedious meetings to come to an outline of the ‘marital pot’. It was clear that the mediator was not the right person to help us with resolving the split of the financial assets, so we changed to Collaborative practice. I met with Katy twice before the meeting, she was with me throughout the day and followed up the conclusions from the discussion. Katy was very much the right person to have with me in the meeting. She is quick to assimilate information and assess the situation. She gave clear, logical advice and briefed me on the process. I went into the meeting feeling well-supported. During the discussions, she was flexible, kept the conversation moving and made practical suggestions on how to address impasses. The conversation was always calm and constructive. At the end of the day we came to an agreement that was better than I could have imagined, plus both my husband and me felt OK with it. A large part of that is due to Katy’s composed guidance and application of her intelligence and creativity in finding solutions. Her support has been vital in giving us a way forward in finishing the marriage – one that we can both see the logic of, and so can justify. I have already recommended her services to friends and will continue to do so!

I can highly recommend Katy Zikking at Harbour Family Law. The service I received throughout the process was excellent. Where incredibly acrimonious meditation had failed, Katy was able to recover the situation to give me the best possible outcome. Throughout the whole process Katy was professional, knowledgeable, reassuring and most importantly completely committed in supporting me to get the best possible outcome. She was guided by a strong sense of fairness and gave me the confidence to stand firm in a very difficult process. This has enabled me to retain financial security for my family. My queries were always responded to promptly and efficiently. I never want to go through this process again, but if I did, I would not hesitate to use Harbour Family Law.

Fiona offered friendly and professional support throughout my divorce. She explained the process in detail every step of the way, which was very reassuring. She was easy to get hold of, or if she was unavailable, promptly got back to me. Fiona understood my situation and made sure that me and my children got the best outcome. A very professional company. I would highly recommend them. Thank you.

After a year of heartache I felt there was only one option open – to consult a solicitor. I was put at ease straight away by Ros. She fully understood the situation. A sensitive letter was sent to the family member, beautifully written. Without Ros, who was kind and compassionate, I could not have coped with this situation on my own.

Katy Zikking and Harbour Family Law were extremely professional in their approach.  Divorces are, I suspect, difficult and emotional times for all involved. Above just being a law firm dealing with the legal aspects of my divorce, I felt supported and guided.  I found their advice invaluable, but also I found their approach to be warm and sympathetic – making that trying time much more bearable, and as smooth as could have been expected.

Hannah has an amazing way of putting things into context. Hannah’s advice and support has been invaluable to me through a really tough time. She really was a constant source of reassurance throughout my whole divorce process, thank you.

I could not fault the advice and support I received from Harbour Family Law.  A difficult period of time in my life was definitely made easier for me. I would rate this company as nothing less than outstanding.

At a particularly difficult time in my life, being hurled into unexpected divorce proceedings, I found it reassuring to have the calm advice of Katy, who explained the process to me in a straightforward manner. It was a relief to be able to hand over the issue to Harbour Family Law, who throughout dealt with the matter in a swift and professional manner, but also with compassion and understanding, which for me was helpful. Katy dealt with the other Solicitors in the same positive manner, keeping a sensible dialogue between the parties,  which made it easier when my wife and I reconciled, and the divorce proceedings were halted. I am grateful to Harbour Family law for their advice and handling of the situation.
