Prompt and efficient service at all times from all the staff we had contact with at K. J. Smith, co.UK

I instructed KJ Smith Solicitors for assistance with a non-molestation order and my divorce and have been very grateful for the support I received. Kulbir Smith was professional, knowledgeable and clear throughout what was a very stressful time.
She explained each step of the process carefully, responded promptly to my questions and handled my case with sensitivity and care. I felt listened to and supported, and I always had confidence that my case was being taken seriously.
I would not hesitate to recommend KJ Smith Solicitors to anyone needing family law advice.

I had a really great consultation call with Amber at KJ Smith Solicitors. She actually listened to what I was saying and seemed genuinely interested, which made such a difference. She explained all the legal jargon in a way that was easy to understand, and she was really clear and empathetic throughout.

Amber answered my questions as well as she could and laid out my options and next steps in a way that didn’t feel overwhelming. Going through a divorce is mentally tough, but after talking to her I felt a lot more confident and a bit lighter about everything.

I am deeply disappointed with the service provided by Kate Evans at KJ Smith Solicitors and would strongly advise avoiding the Oxford branch altogether. Even in urgent situations, there are far better solicitors available locally.

Her case management is non-existent. Her legal knowledge appears largely theoretical, with no meaningful engagement or ability — or willingness — to apply it to the realities of a complex case. She is comfortable producing lengthy but basic emails at £260 + VAT per hour, yet that is essentially all that is offered.

She charged £2,500 to read a court bundle and answer six questions in writing. However, after the initial consultation, I was never offered another in-person meeting, solely because I had not signed a full retainer. Unless you commit thousands more upfront, meaningful engagement appears to be off the table.

To be clear, I can read, write, complete court forms, and conduct legal research myself. What I was paying for was professional guidance, strategic case management, and experienced direction. Instead, I received generic written responses, no discussion, no practical advice, and no sense of ownership of the case.

Overall, the service provided barely qualifies as a professional service at all. With sufficient time, online resources, and the support of AI, the same level of information can be obtained independently. I awarded two stars solely for the effort of drafting lengthy emails. Beyond that, I received no significant value, no support, and no professional engagement.

Excellent communication, empathy and understanding from the start and great service in dealing with the matter

For my divorce proceedings which took upwards of two years, Kulbir Rahi in the Ascot office was invaluable at advising and navigating me through the financial and childcare proceedings. She offered support and advice on the elements that I undertook myself and also kept me up to speed on all things related to the court proceedings. Most importantly to me, she promoted a communications exchange with my ex-wife that was as conflict-free as possible as well as ensuring that the welfare and wellbeing of my children were at the forefront of discussions and considerations. Kulbir was always available for a quick chat for me to run different scenarios/outcomes by and advise accordingly. She really did make one of life's most stressful experiences much easier and 'survivable'.

Excellent Law Office.
KJS Ascot branch dealt with my Divorce application, Consent Order and Pension Annexe.
Very knowledgeable and friendly service. Very helpful with managing the process and costs. Altogether an excellent service.

KJ Smith Solicitors' Ascot office provided outstanding advice during a particularly sensitive time. I required specialist guidance on financial proceedings following my divorce, and Ms. Rahi delivered exactly what I needed - clear legal analysis, practical recommendations, and efficient service throughout.

The advice was thorough yet accessible, allowing me to make informed decisions with confidence. Communication was professional and responsive, and the matter was concluded efficiently. I would not hesitate to recommend their family law services to anyone facing similar circumstances.

I am pleased that I chose Eleanor Tanner as my solicitor for my divorce. She has been highly professional from start to finish and genuinely could not have done anything better. Whilst also demonstrating genuine empathy and understanding throughout the process. Her responses are consistently prompt and her clear communication helped make things more manageable. I have complete confidence that she was acting in my best interest and would highly recommend Eleanor without hesitation.

I had an initial consultation with Rachelle Moore regarding a query as my role as an Executor in a Will and she was amazing! Rachelle provided me with clear, practical and well considered advice explaining terms in a way that was easy to understand. What stood out for me was her empathy and understanding about the situation. I never felt rushed and Rachelle answered all my questions thoroughly (I had a lot), her guidance was reassuring and supremely helpful. I would not hesitate to recommend Rachelle to anyone seeking professional, knowledgeable and empathetic legal advice: I will be back soon to ask Rachelle to re write my own Will!

I can only say how despondent and disappointed I was after my appointment. My disappointment was due to the fact that I felt that, given what the solicitor said, a divorce would mean I could come off worse. The solicitor seemed more focused on what my partner would potentially get. I should have known given my initial request for a face to face appointment was ignored and they gave me a telephone appointment and I had to request it again with a response from them that I had asked for a telephone appointment. I’m not convinced they would be working for me either given the above. I gave the solicitor information at the start of the appointment but she didn’t write it down as she asked me a question that showed she hadn’t. This was not a good experience at all and I won’t be going back.

I was so glad I chose Antonia to act for me in my recent divorce and final orders, consummate professional at every turn with sound advice and assistance.
I would not hesitate to Reccomend her services, something I’m immensely grateful for.
Kind regards
Dr L Gilson

Rachelle and Lauren were lovely to deal with and explained everything clearly so we understood all implications of our decisions when drawing up our wills.
We chose KCS because they advertise a Marlow office and did not realise that the actual base is Woodley so we feel it is important that the personnel are available at the Marlow office at all times.

I recently sought advice from Amber Howton. Amber was absolutely amazing. She is incredibly knowledgeable as a solicitor and demonstrates a depth of expertise that immediately puts you at ease.

What stood out most was her passion and genuine care. Amber provided clear, thorough advice, signposted me to the right resources, and helped me feel far more confident in the decisions I needed to make. Her guidance gave me clarity during a very difficult time, and I truly felt supported throughout the process.

I highly recommend Amber to anyone seeking legal advice she is exceptional

Thank you Rachelle and Lauren at your Woodley Branch for helping my wife and I with our complicated Wills. The information was explained clearly and we could understand everything that was explained to us. The service we were given was 1st class and our Wills were completed within 2 weeks.
Thank you
Ian

Personally I’d like to Thank Them For Everything, Liz & Lauren I had absolutely no idea what I could or couldn’t do without your Help I couldn’t have gotten through all this, So Thank You so Very Much, It’s Very Much Appreciated Many Thanks ☺️

I cannot speak highly enough about the consummately professional service provided by my advocate Jasmin I. She has been professional, patient and deeply knowledgeable; quietly reining in my excesses during an emotive period while firmly and clearly expressing my position to opposing counsel. She has kept me calm and positive. A great advert for K J Smith and I would recommend both firm and Jasmin to anyone else seeking family and / or divorce legal support without hesitation.

Very good! I work professionally!

Stephanie Glover who first worked on my divorce case was very personable and also thorough. I felt in safe hands with her. I felt she was practical and didn't make matters more complicated than they should be - which was not true of the other side. When Stephanie left, Jasmin took over and it was a very smooth transition and I had no concerns at all.

Engaging with a solicitor, especially at such an emotionally charged time, can be emotional and difficult - to say the least!
In my situation, I was facing the breakdown of a 20 year relationship. The relationship had become highly toxic, my relationship with my children was beginning to suffer and my partner was increasingly irrational, demanding and cruel. My partner was being guided by their own legal counsel and had clearly decided to ignore all the agreements our marriage bas built on, all the trust and good will that had been created over 20 years and was prepared to use the children against me - I'm not sure I could face a more challenging and emotional situation! My trust and faith in humanity was rock bottom. The lies, the deceit, the claims being made about me were absolutely shocking!
Fortunately the team at KJS, lead by Aaron in my case, encouraged me to speak up, help me find my confidence and helped me make clear assessments on what was fair, reasonable and morally correct - irrespective of my partner's views. Understanding the landscape of a divorce, how people change and how they can suddenly behave so differently was a very hard lesson indeed. Anyone would be wise to seek support through something as tragic as an unwanted divorce.
The space, patience and time I was afforded has unequivocally resulted in a much better outcome for myself and my children - without compromising the lifestyle of my partner; but certainly not allowing them to get everything they claimed they 'needed'.
Having a calm and trusted solicitor, someone on your 'team' to offer a balanced view and someone with an expert knowledge of a very challenging situation has been invaluable!
