Testimonial:

“With the clock ticking down to a divorce final hearing (financial remedy) I started exploring the option of a Direct Access barrister for representation, having been a litigant in person up to that point. I called 2KBW and spoke with Daren who was very helpful in terms of my initial contact. He provided clear guidance and pricing. Hannah also provided first class support with submitting information and subsequent questions that arose. They both created an excellent first impression of 2KBW and I was immediately filled with confidence. Based on recommendations from Daren I chose Luka Maxted-Page to represent me at the final hearing. I cannot speak highly enough of Luka. He only had a short window to prepare for the case as I had left it late to appoint representation. With this in mind, Luka quickly got to grips with the salient points of the case and was meticulously thorough in his research. He gave clear directions as to what he considered relevant and his knowledge of family court matters reassured me at a very difficult and challenging time. I knew I had made the right choice. Luka conducted himself with the the utmost professionalism at all times and his preparation for the final hearing was exemplary. On the day, with emotions running high, Luka was calm and assured at all times and used his experience, insight and acumen to achieve a fair result for everyone. Luka is a credit to 2KBW, his friendly, professional dedicated and knowledgeable approach made all the difference. I would have no hesitation in recommending Luka Maxted-Page and 2KBW to anyone needing the help of a barrister”.
