Yasmin and Grainne were wonderful in helping me during each step of my divorce process. I could not recommend them enough. If you're looking for a good, friendly, trustworthy and very efficient law firm, you can 100% count on them at BLM. They not only helped me with what I needed, but gave me legal advice on all aspects that I had doubts. I'm a very anxious person and they did not let me down one bit - even when the news weren't what I expected, they were kind enough to offer suitable alternatives and to show empathy throughout everything.
I'll definitely use them in the future if I ever need a lawyer or a legal team. Thank you very much, one more time, to both Yasmin and Grainne. Your kindness and efficiency during this difficult time in my life won't be forgotten.

Yasmin and Grainne have been very helpful in advising and guiding me in my divorce process. I reached out to them in a very complicated situation and they have been extremely helpful in guiding me into the right steps. The advice was very professional and honest. Yasmin have been very responsive and did take time to reply whenever I needed. I have been able to take some very important steps today with their help. Their help has been life changing for me. Thank you very much. God bless Highly recommend their service.

I have been involved in a very contentious divorce, with a variety of complicating factors. Grainne Fahy was quick to realise the complexities and involve other BLM associates where necessary. Grainne and her team have, in my opinion, gone 'beyond' in showing empathy, understanding and compassion for my situation. The professionalism and speed with which information was processed was outstanding. Happily, we won with a very good outcome, all due to the diligence of Grainne.
When you are faced with needing a family solicitor and lack knowledge as to whom to contact it is usually when speed is of the essence. I count myself extremely fortunate to have been recommended Grainne and would have no hesitation in passing on this recommendation.

The company saved my life as i was at a very low point. There helped me with a historic child abuse claim. Sarah Murray-Smith was great, and so was her assistant James Chambers. If you need a caring solicitor who treats you with kindness and respect and does not over complicate matters or make things awkward, look no further. I wont forget your help when i most needed it. God bless you both!

I really appreciated the professionalism of the BLM team, led by Grainne Fahy. At the outset of my case, the team laid out clearly how it would play out and the strategy they would use. They outlined the additional professional resources we would need to bring in for guidance. Those resources operated in a professional manner and in the required time frame.
In the long run, the case played out in exactly the BLM team way they had indicated and that outcome was fair. The success of the case I believe was due to holding a consistent line throughout. They stayed singularly focused on the most important aspects of the case that would impact outcomes, despite many situations which could have derailed. The consistency and focus were extremely reassuring in dealing the main ups and downs of a complicated international case.
The team was super responsive to requests and were always available to carry out calls, when needed. I really appreciated the way that they operated flexibly too especially around the more complicated aspects. The only opportunities I can point to were around the duplication of some of the professional resources on both sides of the case; this could have been perhaps agreed up front. In all, I would strongly recommend BLM to anyone

I have used BLM to assist with my divorce, things were dragging on until I instructed Grainne and Yasmin to assist with the matter. There efficient responses and sound advice have enabled me to conclude a matter that was taking years in a relatively short space of time. I would certainly recommend BLM, Grainne and Yasmin for any family law legal matters and wouldn't hesitate to use them again in the future.

There are obviously many legal firms that purport to cater to their clients needs and requirements, but Yasmin Khan-Gunns and the team over at BLM go that one step further. They have a balanced, measured and proactive approach when dealing with you and treat you as an individual when dealing with sensitive time dependent issues. Yasmin is an asset to the firm and I would highly recommend her services and levels of professionalism. Thank you BLM.
