Bio
Becky Prescott
Lorna represented me through my painful and stressful divorce, offering guidance and support throughout. Lorna was empathetic and made me think about demands my ex husband was making. If he demanded X from me Lorna advised I fight back with Y. Lorna is an efficient and very knowledgeable solicitor who fights your corner to the end. Lorna maintains the pressure on the other parties solicitors to ensure the aim of her client is achieved as smoothly, quickly and stress free as possible. I would not hesitate to recommend Lorna if your going through a separation with a partner.

Lorna has recently represented me throughout my separation and divorce and I cannot praise her enough. I met with several solicitors but I chose Lorna to represent me during my separation with my wife because of her professionalism and personable approach from our first meeting. Lorna was very knowledgeable, she made me feel very comfortable and secure in the fact that I could trust her and that she'd look after my best interest but also advise me if my opinion or views were slightly off kilter, as this does happen during stressful times. Lorna was swift to respond to any request I had and dealt with incoming issues from my wife with equal speed. I cannot thank her enough and I highly recommend her.
