Joanne Phillipson was absolutely outstanding from start to finish. Her command of the courtroom was nothing short of spectacular. She navigated every twist and turn of my case with poise, skill, and confidence.
Beyond her legal expertise, she showed genuine empathy and understanding, always taking the time to explain each step and put me at ease.
Thanks to Jo, what felt like a monumental burden was lifted, and I couldn’t be more grateful.
Absolutely fantastic service! The clerk I spoke to called James was excellent, he was very prompt with things and very polite/helpful with everything. The barrister who represented me Mr Gedal was very professional and provided us with a fabulous service. He gave wonderful representation, was very friendly and presented himself very well. Couldn't be more happy! Would highly recommend them anyone. 5 star service all round ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Many thanks for everything
I was recently represented at family court by Mr Khairie Gedal, Mr Gedal was fantastic from the outset making me feel reassured throughout the day putting his knowledge and negotiation skills to work. The outcome was better than i had expected which I believe was only possible due to Mr Gedal's quick thinking both inside the court and outside during negotiation. Highly recommend as a farther fighting for what's right for his kids, Thank you !
Absolutely shocking and disgusting service. I contacted them through my solicitor who arranged that they would give written legal advice and arrange a conference to discuss where my solicitor would attend. I paid the solicitor 150 pounds to attend this online meeting. Then I received the written legal advice but no meeting having paid the solicitor 150 to attend! They then denied any such meeting was arranged which is contradicted by emails. Worse yet the very expensive legal advice they did provide was total nonsense. Fortunately even I as a lay person could see this and ignored their advice and went ahead with my case with a proper firm of barristers and won overwhelmingly. Please avoid these clowns if you want honesty and good legal advice. David Doran
Incredible professional service received from day one, we cannot recommend Joanne Philipson highly enough. She is an outstanding family law barrister with a wealth of knowledge and attention to detail. Joanne supported through a deeply complex and emotive matter which resulted in the best/safest outcome for a child. Not only is she a wonderful barrister she is a sincerely kind and compassionate lady who goes above and beyond for her clients, her commitment was second to none.
A big thank you to James who also went above and beyond to support .
Khairie Gedal… What can I say, this man can truly perform miracles! I was fortunate enough to be directed to Quartz Barristers after a lengthy battle in court to gain my rights as a father. From the moment I had spoken to Khairie , I knew he had my best interest at the centre of his planning. He took great care and time to understand the history of my case and all its intricacies and was able to give invaluable clarity and guidance throughout. Khairie’s professionalism and personal integrity is second to none, he was phenomenal in his approach and gained outstanding results at a time when they mattered most. Khairie went above and beyond his position to ensure that I was not only heard as a father but given the respect and platform that I had been fighting for over the last 4 years. I cannot thank Khairie enough for his guidance and support. I would not hesitate to recommend Khairie Gedal to anyone who is hoping to achieve the best results. We could not have done this without you. Thank you so much you have changed the lives of our family.
My father and I had the privilege of receiving Khairie's help.
I spoke to a few Legal Representatives to help with my case, however, from the moment I spoke to Khairie I knew he was the best person to represent us. On our first phone call he took the time to understand the details, built rapport and explained the process to me. (This is something others did not do.)
Khairie was really attentive to our requests, was always available to answer any questions and kept us updated throughout.
He made an unpleasant situation much easier to get through. He handled the case well, and we are really happy with the outcome.
Thank you Khairie!
I'm so glad John Hudson took on my case. He is knowledgeable, calm and very professional. I was very impressed with his attention to details when preparing to my FDR, and the hearing itself was just perfect.
I consider myself privileged having John on my side as a Barrister - I'm very thankful.
James was able to source me the best legal representative for my totting up case. I was due to receive a ban of up to 6 months but Khairie managed to get me a brilliant result, he was extremely helpful and professional throughout the process.
During cross examination Khairie’s questioning removed any opportunity for the prosecution to catch me off guard or make me feel uncomfortable and with his expert guidance I was able to answer questions concisely and make the points which proved exceptional hardship.
I was given 3 points and a fine of under £300. I cannot recommend Quartz barristers highly enough. If I need representation in future I will be straight onto them.
Special thanks to John Hudson and team at Quartz Chambers
Enduring thanks to John Hudson. He stepped in to assist several times in my finance matter when the going was tough. I greatly valued how at ease he put me with his calm, reassuring manner, genuine interest, and willingness to listen. He is clearly a barrister who cares. He is the most excellent communicator, naturally detecting how I needed to communicate. He gave so generously of time and expertise, going way beyond. I can’t thank him enough for all he did and for the consequent positive impact both at court and on me.
Lastly, special thanks must also go to Paul Wright, CEO of chambers and James Petts, senior clerk. They stand out from other chambers with their human touch.
I highly recommend using Quartz Chambers.
Alison Howey a real geninue kind human being who has worked hard to reach an excellent outcome
Ms Alison Howey representated me with children and financial matters, I had her for 4 years altogether and only just finalist the financial matters in November 2022. I would say I am in a pretty good position to give feedback on her work.
Alison is very Knowledgeable when it comes to the law, she was able to guide me and advice on what were my negatives and positives on what the law states regarding children and financial matters. It helped me to focus on doing the right thing
Great Communicator- Alison responded very quickly to my emails, text messages regardless of the time of the day or day of the week. I worked week days so most of my emails were sent on weekends and late evenings and the responses were efficient and spot on. If she couldn't respond she would apologise and it would only be 2/3 hours later because she was in court or a meeting.
Responsiveness- Even though at times I was litigent in person , I would email her for advice and she would still respond and guide me to the right place . I am so grateful for her patience and understanding knowing that as a single mother I couldn't afford all the legal fees, therefore still supported me without demanding money or watching the clock when I was crying but she listened and that is very rare amongst the legal sector.
Great Listening Skills- again her patience to listen to my cries, I can't begin to thank her enough for her time and patience. If I have to pay her for all the hours she spent responding to my emails, listening to my complaints I would be in a serious debt by now.
In my final fianancial matter court, Alison worked tirelessley to keep up with my disorganised, endless emails and overwellming documentations I was sending her . She worked weekends, evenings and Persevered with the case until we saw an excellent result. I still can't believe the outcome of the court, its better than I had anticpated or expected. I feel as if I am dreaming.
I would highly recommend Alison to stand by you with child and financial matters, for her its not just a job but a passion and determination to see justice.
I feel that I have not paid her enough, the only thing I can do is to pay her with prayers as no amount of money would be enough.
Last but not least James Petit in the office was also very supportive and helped me out at short notice when I was stuck with bundles. I am very grateful for all your help.
In the course of over three years of litigation in Family Court, and more recently in Civil Court, I have run through a host of Direct Access Barristers. Not until I engaged with Catherine Hewitt did I find out what it means to “work with” one’s legal counsel - and to get decently treated by their clerk
I have firm convictions about my case; Ms. Hewitt has her wealth of experience and sharp insight. As a result, we have been able to negotiate the very best strategies to tackle my case.
Quite apart from ‘winning’ - and ultimately that involves forces beyond our control – we have advanced, step by step, in presenting a better case than I had ever hoped for, or would have achieved with anyone else. It is true to me, and due to her.
To put it bluntly, she is a top-notch barrister who renders her services available at a very manageable cost - in a spirit of reciprocity.
I consider myself to be lucky to work with Catherine Hewitt.
Raj Kanda provided representation for me on a recent court hearing. He provided excellent support throughout. He is dedicated and works to secure both positive and successful results. He is approachable and willing to listen, whilst providing extensive knowledge and expertise given his years of experience. He aims to deliver great client satisfaction. I would highly recommend Raj as a trusted barrister, and have been very pleased with the representation he has provided.
Rai Kanda was instructed for a hearing which was postponed at the last minute, he worked over and above to secure a new date with the court that worked for all parties. I can honestly say he went over and above the normal service expected from barristers. He took the time to read and understand the case to the level that I am happy to not only retain him for further cases but to also recommend him to anyone who requires a barrister with his skill set.
His insight into the case and relevant area of law is such that he can not only respond to the events as they happen but can prepare for multiple outcomes and foresee any eventualities that could arise.

Stay well clear of Katherine Hewitt
I called upon Katherine Hewitt’s services for my contested final hearing A BIG MISTAKE. She says all the right things in your free 30 min consultation but actually when it come to the final hearing she bottled it. If a CAFCASS officer told me she did not like my client that would have been my motivation to challenge her, not Katherine she saw the officer had more fight and that was that. She will tell you she deals with CAFCASS all time she shown none of this in the morning of my hearing. Katherine talks the talk but sadly does not walk the walk. It is a good job she got paid in advance and I had run out of time or she would have been binned off 100%.
