As a father of a 3-year boy separated from my son following the breakup of my marriage I was devastated.

My ex-partner wouldn’t let me see my son and refused to negotiate fairly on splitting the proceeds of the house so we could both move on.

I was lost and didn’t know where to turn.

I saw an advert for Fair Result on the internet offering a free consultation and a fixed fee for their work. I thought what have I got to lose. So, I gave them a call.

I had my first consultation with the team on a Sunday afternoon and after listening to my side of things they said I had a great chance to increase my share of the sale proceeds from the house and put on a sure footing my arrangements to see my son going forward.

They gave me a fixed quote to negotiate on my behalf with my ex’s lawyers and got to work straight away.

On Monday they sent me a copy email they proposed to send my wife’s lawyer setting out why my financial needs weren’t met by what was currently on offer and explaining what a reasonable and fair split of the marital assets in the financial division in a divorce was.

They also set out my case for increased time with my son and why it was important to agree on a sensible co-parenting plan that gave certainty to our arrangements and structure for our son.

After the brick walls I had met up to this point I was not optimistic about getting much movement from my ex but within 2 weeks of back and forward emails my wife had increased her offer for my share of the house, and I can now look forward to regular times with my son and taking him away on holiday.

I know I’ve got to wait for the no-fault divorce process cooling-off period for the divorce to finalise, but I’ve got an agreed consent order in place and once the Final order is approved by the court I can move on.

I can’t thank enough the team at Fair Result for the enormous effort they put into my case. I know it wasn’t the most prolonged or most complicated they have ever dealt with. Without their clear plan for how to approach things and negotiate on my behalf I think I would still be bashing my head against the wall in frustration. And I did get all their work and effort for the fixed fee they quoted me on the first Sunday afternoon.

I honestly can’t thank the team enough. I can get on with my life.

My situation was that my husband owns a business which was quite successful with him having taken it over from his father in the mid-90s. I work for the local authority and have done for many years in local government admin so have a relatively good index-linked pension which I was keen to preserve and we have a holiday home in the Burgundy region of France which we always went to in the summer holidays with our children but who at the time of my divorce were approaching A-Levels and university.

The divorce group I’m in told me about Fair Results and how they gave a fixed fee right from the start to do everything in the divorce including court costs barristers’ fees and all valuations. So, when I heard Chris was on the discussion, I joined to see how everything worked.

Chris explained it all to the group in the meeting and I private messaged him afterwards to see how we could move matters forward. He arranged a zoom call with him and Pete the next day at a time that suited me – 7 in the evening so I didn’t even need to take time off work.

When the case was presented at the FDR I couldn’t believe how much work had gone into preparing my case. You forget what’s been done for you in the 8 months I was working with the team at Fair Result. All the time I emailed, and they responded within 24 hours – all the comforting phone calls I had with them when I was in the middle of desperate moments not knowing how it would all turn out.

I cannot thank the team at Fair Result for all the care and effort they put into my case and I was delighted with the outcome. Yes, I thought the fee was high at first but when I heard how much my husband had paid, I knew I got the bargain and I got the best result. I’m sure overall at the end of the day I saved myself 25% on fees that I would have paid with traditional lawyers. If in doubt pick up the phone and have a chat with the team.

I had been working with previous very expensive lawyers for 18 months who dragged me into more and more contentious court hearings and got me frankly nowhere other than appearing to annoy the court and run up fees.

I saw an advert for Fair Result and checked out their website. They had a strong and unique message that divorce settlements were about sorting out finances and co-parenting issues in a fair and pragmatic way. They promised to fight hard for me and gave me an all-inclusive fixed fee however long it took to fight on my behalf. My previous lawyers never gave me a fixed fee at the start they just kept on asking for money on account every two months. I never knew where I was up to and could see an end to it.

I was excited by the idea of knowing my fees going forward would be fixed and these fees included the costs of my barrister as well. I must admit I was sceptical at first and wanted some reassurance. Within 36 hours the team at Fair Result had carried out an appraisal of my case analysed and provided a breakdown of my finances and monthly income needs as well as coming up with a new settlement suggestion my previous lawyers had never discussed with me.

Within a week of engaging with Fair Result, a new offer had been sent to my ex which was fair and one which they ultimately accepted and the case was concluded within 6 weeks with the court consent order approved. The model from Fair Result is unique and they stick to their word about the fixed fee and even reduced it slightly for me because they sorted the case out so quickly. Give the team a ring – you have nothing to lose.

“I could not have been any more relieved the whole process was dealt with so smoothly by Fair Result. They were approachable efficient and confident in what they could deliver, and it is the best way I could have handled a difficult emotional and financial period in my life. Not something I was ever expecting but with Fair Result behind me I got the best outcome possible and was able to move on with my life emotionally and financially secure.”

“I engaged with Pete and Chris. It was my second divorce. I was sceptical that their fees were fixed and they could progress a settlement as promised. But the contrast in their services between my first traditional divorce using lawyers was astounding. They were honest, straight to the point and delivered me a fair settlement without all the emotional stress I had the first time.
