Christopher Fitzpatrick

I first went to Bonallack and Bishop last year, for family law I was put through to Liam Oliver. I was worried at first very panicky but Liam had the time for me when I needed him he made me feel like I was his only client with his speedy response. He made every effort to accommodate my needs and give me advice when needed. I’m pleased to say I got the court order I wanted which was done with out fuss and with out no messing about, my costs were kept to a minimum as a result. Thank you Liam what a credit to the solicitor firm. Thank you Bonallack and Bishop for giving me such a wonderful solicitor.

Liam and the team have been a fantastic support and have helped me enormously. Continually kept me in the loop at all times and have always been happy to simplify things and answer my basic questions!
I would highly recommend Bonallack & Bishop to anyone who needs a solicitor!

Liam was a legend
I was first put in touch with Liam through a friend’s work solicitor and from the first correspondence he was extremely helpful and honest. The moment he took over my divorce proceedings I felt at ease and confident that it would be sorted. Hopefully I won’t need to use him again, but wouldn’t hesitate to use him or recommend his services.
