What people say about Charlotte

"I can honestly say I have never dealt with a better solicitor. I have dealt with at least 20 over the years!"
"You made the whole experience immeasurably less painful than it could have been and I really do appreciate your professionalism and also your friendliness. It made a big difference. Coming to your offices always felt like an oasis of calm."
"Thank you for your kindness and support over the years, so much appreciated. Could not have achieved all we have without you."
"Charlotte Knappett was excellent, she gave great advice, she as honest and kept me informed at all times. I had a very bad and costly experience previously but Charlotte restored my faith in Solicitors."
"Charlotte has been so much more than a solicitor to me. From day one I have felt she was 100% in my corner, she was empathetic at a very distressing time in my life, showing genuine concern for my own and family's well being. Her advice was always about getting the best result for myself and she was efficient and responsive. Charlotte made sure I was fully informed at all stages of my divorce and the legal process was smooth under her stewardship. A true asset to FJG."
"Charlotte is empathetic, professional and super responsive. She steered me through some complex and challenging financial negotiations always making my options clear and giving advice I could understand but never being pushy. She was responsive and always got back to me on any questions really quickly. I am pleased to say Charlotte helped me reach a divorce settlement that I was comfortable with and I have no hesitation in recommending her services."
