Outstanding Representation

Family Law | Divorce

I couldn’t be more pleased with the outstanding service Evelyn Peacock provided. From start to finish, she was incredibly sharp and always one step ah...ead, keeping me fully informed at every stage. Her empathy and professionalism turned what could have been an overwhelming experience into a smooth and manageable process. Evelyn's attention to detail, clear communication, and unwavering support made all the difference. I truly felt like I had the best possible representation, and I couldn’t have a...

Complicated multi-jurisdictional international divorce

I am a citizen of one country (where my ex and I married). My ex-spouse is the citizen of a second country but we owned property in a third and fourth... country, where neither of us were resident. Only one of these countries is in the EU. I'd interviewed 6 other solicitors in the UK before I met with Frank. Not one of these gave me any confidence that they understood the complexities of the situation and had the delicate acumen to deal with it. I felt the other were just seeing me and my case as s...

I felt in good hands

Due to the international nature of my case, I was looking for a family lawyer in England who would also know about German law, and in Frank Arndt I fo...und that and much more. The disputes had been going on for years prior, before and after my divorce when I first approached Frank and he was very quick to bring clarity, offered brilliant strategic options, and very importantly in the hardest emotional moments, was reassuring, supportive and kind. I would without hesitation recommend Frank for hi...

Clear, transparent care

James has been very kind and clear with his help. I have found him to be incredibly efficient and has achieved a good result for me. James set out his... costs beforehand, detailing what each stage would involve, meaning I was fully aware of the monetary implications of each decision. This is not usual, but has been enormously helpful to me. Overall, I’ve found James to be immensely knowledgeable and so patient making sure I understood every step. I would have no hesitation in recommending James t...

Top Class Family Lawyer in York (and Yorkshire)

Family Law | Legal aid

I was going through a very difficult divorce with my ex husband who is a top notch narcissist. It took me a while and substantially out of pocket to r...ealise that the usual so called top divorce law firms were completely out of their depths. Not only did they lack empathy, they were simply played by my ex. I was distraught and watched in disbelief how my ex manipulated everyone involved. This was going to cost me my fair share in our matrimonial home after 16 years of marriage and most importantl...

My experience.

I heard about Paradigm Family Law through “word of mouth” from a trusted friend. I was a Respondent and had been persuaded into not using a solicitor... by the petitioner to save money. I was offered a settlement and not being of this new world it seemed okay and reasonable. As a final sanity check, I approached Paradigm and asked Mr Frank Arndt for his open and honest opinion. I was shocked to be advised that it was neither okay nor reasonable. I instructed Paradigm to represent me and for the ne...

Would instantly recommend to anyone - Very professional/knowledgeable

My experience of using James Thornton was nothing but smooth, efficient, professional and dependable. James clearly has a wealth of experience and kno...wledge and communicates clearly and concisely, giving solid, informed advice. I have already referred one contact to James and would not hesitate to do so again, to anyone in need of his services. Thank you James for your efforts and best wishes for the future.

Case review - Years later

Evelyn originally dealt with my divorce case, she was great to work with. Professional, knowledgeable and very thorough. I had a question almost 10 ye...ars after the court hearing regarding my child maintenance contributions, not only did she remember the case first hand she was also very quick to arrange a catch up to give me some free advice and run me through various options. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Evelyn Peacock or Paradigm Family Law to anyone.
