Client Testimonials
Dear Alice. The right sound legal support from yourself has made such a difference to me. Thank you Alice, I have always trusted your advice and couldn’t have asked for more from you.
Alice was amazing from start to finish, gave me accurate and sound advice. She always kept my expectations to a realistic level, and I would recommend her to anyone in a similar position to me, a credit to George Ide solicitors. I always felt I was dealing with a friend not just a solicitor.
Alice provided an exceptional service throughout the year and a half that I used her. She worked tirelessly on my behalf while I went through an extremely painful divorce and child separation issues. As well as her diligence and hard work, she demonstrated a compassion towards me, and a human side that showed that she truly cared about my situation. She has been exemplary in every way throughout the time that I have required her services. I recommend her to anyone, particularly anyone going through a painful legal process that requires an empathetic lawyer who treats you like a friend. She was also very good at explaining complex legal issues succinctly, which was incredibly helpful.
Alice has always replied promptly to emails/telephone calls. She was extremely helpful and made the whole process go smoothly. I would definitely recommend her to anyone thinking of a divorce.
I can enthusiastically recommend Alice Leadbeatter/George Ide. I was extremely grateful for the clarity of her communications and for demystifying many of the processes. Alice was prompt in her replies and very professional – both of which were appreciated in navigating a difficult time.
Alice was reassuring, kind, easy to talk to, very clear in her advice and very efficient. What more does anyone need?
I would like to mention my solicitor, Alice Leadbeatter. I have received such great, professional service from her throughout my case. Alice has been so patient and shown enormous empathy towards my situation. I feel I get good, honest advice from her and I feel I definitely have made the right choice of solicitor.
Dear Alice, thank you for your professionalism, kindness and guidance. It has been an emotional rollercoaster. We feel you have been a shining star in our lives. Alice, you are great asset to your chosen profession and to George Ide LLP. We are privileged to have had you on board.
