Claire and the team are beyond exceptional. I had a bad previous experience with a well known law firm. Claire and the team took on my case halfway through family legal proceedings and over-achieved what I thought was possible. I would thoroughly recommend using them. Thank you Rayden!

I am pleased with the service I had with Rayden Solicitors to get a Non Molestation Order.
Bhini Phagura was my solicitor during this difficult and emotional time. She had the right knowledge and skills to handle my case, which was very challenging. Bhini guided me through each step and supported me to make right choices. Above all, Bhini addressed this issue urgently ensuring my safety and wellbeing.
My first consultation was with Che Meakins. He is highly profesional- he listened to me with patience, and gave me clarity and reasuarance during a very stressfull time.

I recently used this company to assist with a property financial settlement with my ex partner. The whole team were extremely efficient and professional and kept me informed of every step of the process. It was Lehna and Emily that were dealing with my case and I really felt they listened to what I wanted to say and understood as they included every detail in their correspondence and we reached a satisfactory outcome.
I am surprised to see some negative reviews on here regarding the payments as they advise clients in advance verbally and in writing, of what the expected costs will be and like other companies, request payment in advance, but refund any surplus, which is what they did for me and I was happy to pay for their expertise and time.
I would thoroughly recommend this company, would use them again and am very satisfied and happy with the work they did for me.

Marc Etherington of Raydens provided a very professional service. His delicate, non confrontational, collaborative approach eased the difficult process of divorce to a successful conclusion……..so “Well done” to him and the team.

Claire Howard and Rebekah Norman provided an amazingly professional service over a period of two years. Both were brilliant in all my dealings with them, whether it was by email, over the phone or in person.
On the two occasions when needed, Claire was able to provide a shortlist of quality Barristers.
I’m very grateful to both and would highly recommend Claire and Rebekah for any Family Law matters.

Che and Emily alongside their two wonderful PA's Sarah and Jayne handled my divorce which was very difficult. I cannot recommend Che and Emily enough. My divorce was complicated and contentious, and the case settled very well, they delivered an even better outcome, and I'm extremely grateful. They went above and beyond of what I expected. They were always available whenever I needed to speak to them at short notice for reassurance, they would contact me after working hours just to ensure I was aware of any urgent exchanges that needed to be done, and I appreciated it. They managed my expectations very well, they were exceptional in dealing with my case, and they explained each and every process, and the rationale, and this put me at ease. Above all they listened to me, and always took my points of board.

Please do not pay attention to the negative reviews. Rayden is a first class law firm that is client focused. Their costs are value for money, they work with excellent barristers, whose main focus is the client.

RAYDEN IS VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! YOU WILL NEVER BE DISSAPOINTED.

I have gotten good, solid advice from my solicitors and barristers at Raydens during the four years that it has taken for my divorce to be finalised. From 1) a first meeting with my lawyers in the summer of 2019, when I decided to divorce through to 2) the Decree Nisi, then 3) financial disclosure and an agreement to split the marital assets, to 4) the Decree Absolute - my lawyers at Rayden Family Law have been reliable and professional. I am very grateful to Bhini Phagura and Che Meakins in particular. It has been such a pleasure to have received their guidance and to have known them as kind, compassionate people. I have enjoyed paying the bills! That can sound a bit odd, but I really appreciate the support and advice they gave me throughout the divorce process. I can now move forward in a confident and relaxed way. I know this is down to good decisions that I made, guided by Bhini and Che. I can recommend them highly.

Raydens sorted my divorce and child arrangements in 2013. Not cheap, perhaps 50K in total, should imagine that's a lot more with inflation. That said they pretty much provided a London service but not on London rates, so in reflection it was good value. Julian Bremner took on my case, which was an existing case from two other practices, and it was very messy, and completely out of control. I was on the verge of a mental breakdown, just about to burn down the marital home after liquidating my investments to buy gold bars etc, my narcissistic ex-wife attempting to stop me spending time with and parenting my son and control and abuse me as she had done throughout my short but horrific marriage. I'm surprised Julian didn't show me the door, that's what I expected, but he robustly got to grips with the situation and dealt with the complex matters very professionally. Lots of folk here complaining about cost, but trust me, good service comes at a price and I think if I hadn't had poor service prior, from other solicitors, then I wouldn't have been in the state I was in, and it would have been cheaper and easier for Julian to deal with and the outcome may have been more favourable.
