“Grant was excellent in dealing with the financial element and finalisation of my divorce. My case was fairly complex and he gave me confidence in what could have been a very stressful situation. As well as being extremely professional, matters were explained succinctly , and all options explored. Nothing was too much trouble, and in addition to the legal advice given, I appreciated the humility that was shown. The service provided has been exceptional and I would highly recommend Grant Stephens”.

“Grant and his team represented me through an extremely difficult and emotional period. Grant offered unrivalled advice and support throughout my divorce and always acted professionally and promptly with my best interests at heart. I cannot recommend them enough. Thank you Grant”.


Damien

“I struggle to find the vocabulary that encapsulates the remarkable essence of this Law Firm. From the second I walked in I was treated as equally as important as everyone else and instantly made to feel part of a family that cares. At every single stage I was kept informed and updated on every point regardless of magnitude. Every phone call and email was answered immediately and instantly actioned. A special mention to Grant Stephens and Nel Roberts who worked tirelessly and relentlessly, at weekends and evenings to ensure that everything ran like clockwork. Neither Grant nor Nel ever took a backward step, rather displayed an unwavering focus on constant progress. Without this team my family wouldn’t have the future we’ve now been afforded. I truly am beyond grateful and I’ll never forget how this team wonderfully changed my son’s and my family’s life. The lovely genuine team at Grant Stephens Family Law operate at an elite level in a time and space all of their own. The passion, service and professionalism is exceptional because they care…. and the warm family feel is a bonus gift all of its own!”


Mr C De-Vulgt

“I had an amazing experience with Grant and Bethany. Grant and Bethany are true professionals, and after my experience with them I am so glad I chose this firm. If you are reading this review and are experiencing any sort of family matter, I urge you to give them a call, my experience was they will start getting things sorted for you from the moment you get in touch. Even though my case was admittedly very complicated, their hard work has taken me from no contact with my daughter, to building a meaningful relationship with her. Their knowledge, experience and professionalism is outstanding and I was extremely impressed with the representation I had from them in court. But what really separates this firm from the rest is the level of care they have for their clients. They wanted to do everything they could to help me, and with my case they truly went over and above. They aren’t just great solicitors, they are great people and I cannot thank them enough for everything they have done”.


Mr A

“Grant Stephens Family Law handled my drawn out, complicated and acrimonious divorce with the utmost professionalism and support. The firm could not have offered me better advice or more support throughout the entire process. Without their expertise and the way they guided me, I can honestly say I would have given up on many occasions. I cannot recommend the firm highly enough”.


Kerry

“I cannot recommend Lisa and Grant Stephens Family Law highly enough. Lisa has been representing me throughout my ongoing divorce and financial settlement, and her professionalism, expertise, and support have been exceptional from the very beginning. This has been an incredibly difficult process, but Lisa has always taken the time to provide clear, honest, and practical advice, ensuring I understand my options and feel confident in every decision I make. What has stood out most is Lisa’s genuine compassion and commitment. She combines outstanding legal knowledge with a calm, supportive approach, making a challenging situation far more manageable. I am extremely grateful for Lisa’s dedication and the excellent service I have received from Grant Stephens Family Law so far. I would not hesitate to recommend the firm to anyone looking for an experienced, trustworthy, and compassionate family law solicitor”.


R.J

“I cannot recommend Bethany highly enough. She supported me through one of the most difficult and emotionally challenging periods of my life, and throughout the entire children matter she was calm, professional, honest and exceptionally reassuring. Bethany always explained the process clearly, gave balanced and practical advice, and made sure that I fully understood every option before making decisions. What stood out most was that Bethany never lost sight of what truly mattered: securing a stable, fair and child-focused outcome. She handled difficult correspondence in a measured and professional way, remained focused on the important issues rather than unnecessary conflict, and gave me confidence at times when I was understandably anxious about the process. Her judgement and strategy were excellent. The final outcome provides long-term certainty, stability and equal involvement from both parents, which was exactly what I had hoped to achieve from the outset. I will always be extremely grateful to Bethany for the role she played in helping secure that outcome. Beyond her legal expertise, Bethany treated me with genuine kindness, patience and respect. I always felt that she listened to me, understood how important the matter was, and genuinely cared about achieving the best possible result for my family. Bethany is an outstanding solicitor and an absolute credit to Grant Stephens Family Law.”


Matthew

“There are simply not enough words to express my gratitude to Nel and everyone at Grant Stephens Family Law. Nel listened without judgement, gave honest and practical advice, and guided me through one of the most difficult and emotionally challenging periods of my life. Every step of the way, I felt supported, informed, and confident that she was fighting for what was right. What truly sets Nel apart is her professionalism, dedication, and genuine compassion. She never once wavered, no matter how challenging the process became. She was always prepared, always approachable, and always had my son’s best interests at the heart of everything she did. Because of Nel’s hard work, commitment, and expertise, my son and I now have the meaningful time together that every father and child deserves. I genuinely believe the outcome would not have been the same without her dedication and determination. If you are looking for a family law solicitor who is exceptionally knowledgeable, genuinely cares about her clients, and will stand by you through every stage of the process, then I cannot recommend Nel and Grant Stephens Family Law highly enough.”


Mr A Morris

“The Most Kind and Lovely Person to Have Evie was and is an amazing, kind, and thoughtful person who I had the pleasure of dealing with my case. She helped me and reassured me in difficult times. I don’t know where I would be without her. She helped build my confidence and trust with people again after my ex. She gave me back my power. I genuinely mean this from the bottom of my heart; she saved me from so much negativity going around me at the time and supported me with coming out of my abusive relationship. She supported me and dealt with thousands of calls off me, which probably done her head in. I feel I have my confidence back and I am able to be me again and be the best mum to my daughter”.


Rhianna

“I cannot thank Nel and the team at Grant Stephens Family Law enough for the support they’ve given me throughout my divorce over the past year. It has been an incredibly difficult and emotional time, and their guidance, expertise, patience, and professionalism have made all the difference. Nel not only advised me expertly on every legal aspect, with her and the team being extremely responsive and skilled, but also consistently supported my wellbeing and advocated for both me and my son from a welfare perspective. I’ve always felt genuinely supported and well‑advised at every stage. The whole team has been extremely communicative, available, thorough, and truly invested in helping me move forward. I’m deeply grateful for everything they’ve done and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone needing family law support. Without Nel and the team, I would not be moving into a new home, with a fair settlement and agreements that above all, work in the best interest of my young son”.

John Morgan, Newport

“Thank you for all of your work towards finalising my divorce. It seems a bit strange to be thanking someone for that but your good humour, honesty and efficiency really made a huge difference through what has been the hardest time of my life. You even managed to make me laugh! Thank you.”


L, Cardiff

“At a time that I really needed help, I not only got it but I got the best! You take your job extremely seriously and you were a breath of fresh air. I have never experienced the level of service that you provided and feel that you are a credit to your profession. Keep up the good work as you really do make such a difference to people’s lives.”


F, Cardiff

Having used Grant recently in a Court matter relating to contact with my son, I found Grant to be approachable, understanding, empathic, considerate and ultimately very professional with the way in which he conducted himself throughout the case.  Always there to give you that peace of mind, guidance and support when it’s most needed.  I would have no hesitation in highly recommending Grant for his services.”


Stephen Loynton

“From the moment we met Grant we had confidence in his ability. He was clear in his advice, and he avoided legal jargon. He set our expectations on costs and was careful ensure all his work was productive. While a contested financial resolution was never going to be pleasurable, Grant’s good­ humoured nature ensured that our meetings were enjoyable as well as business-like; particular thanks to him for helping Cheryl through the Court Hearings which would have been very stressful without his support. Throughout we were lucky to have Grant “in our corner” and the end result was a fair settlement: we recommend him without hesitation.”


Nick
