When I found myself around a table with my solicitor and her team discussing the most shocking and disruptive bomb that had been dropped on my life. I found there were two very clear sides to divorce. Emotional and logistical. She was very clear and provided the stability in helping steer the logistical legal process, however, after allowing me the space to get my head around this she then recommended speaking to Ashley to help me get my thoughts in order and to achieve my end goal.
My overwhelming memory of my solicitor was ‘she is an expert in control’ so when she suggested another ‘expert’ to help I of course investigated it for myself and made the decision to contact Ashely. I was enabled rather than told which was the key. Having a weekly meeting with Ashley was imperative to succeeding in being able to negotiate a very complicated situation in as calm, considered, and creative way as possible.
Ashley has the legal expertise to understand but was able to allow me to develop and grow as an individual, so my emotional wellbeing was being stabilised alongside the more clinical legal process. In my case I was particularly impressed with the way that Ashley allowed me to talk and then actively guided me through a variety of different situations so I could feel in control as the case progressed. It has also benefited me in all areas of life for which I am very grateful.
