Client Testimonials:

'Clear and helpful advice from start to finish.'
November 2010

'I found out about Maura's collaborative work purely by chance, but I will be eternally grateful for her knowledge and expertise in offering such a professional caring service. She clearly has extensive experience of the traditional process and has developed her own approach to collaboration in order to turn divorce into a dignified separation. Having gone through collaboration I am certain that the experience was much lass painful (and less expensive) than the traditional process would have been.'

‘Maura was recommended to me and my ex wife by a friend who wanted to support us through a most difficult time after 27 years of marriage. I would have no hesitation in recommending Maura to anyone who wanted to divorce, as her website suggests, "with dignity".
Maura recommended a colleague for my ex wife to work with her and together we all worked through the issues and difficulties to a mutually beneficial and amicable outcome for us both.
The support given by Maura to me was superb. The collaborative process is what it says on the tin "collaborative", and the pace and structure of the divorce is governed by the needs and wishes of the couple divorcing. As long as you want to, and are prepared to, talk things through together this process is brilliant and fairly painless, both emotionally and from a cost perspective. Divorce is clearly difficult but this process and Maura's involvement was excellent.’

‘The collaborative process provided a supportive framework for the most difficult time of my life. It often felt like the process directed my actions in the opposite direction to those which my emotions would have made me react, but by doing this it focused the outcome on my daughter’s needs and I truly believe it created the best outcome possible from a very difficult situation.’

‘Divorce can never be completely stress free, in fact for most people it’s one of the worst experiences they will go through in their life. However my divorce in 2007 was made bearable by the use of the collaborative process and the good work of my solicitor Maura McKibbin. My wife and I managed to stay on good terms throughout the divorce and reach an amicable settlement on the financial and other delicate issues. I would have no hesitation in recommending Maura whom I found both professional and very personable.’
Bob MacDonald, Timperley, Cheshire

‘Maura’s sensitive and professional approach gave me the confidence to deal with the divorce.’
