Testimonials

“Mary secured for me the representation of a barrister overnight at short notice, and I was represented by MSB Solicitors in court.

This was a very terrifying experience for both me and my partner and the thought of loosing our daughter was never off our minds. Since initially speaking to Mary, she was brilliant, she reassured me, instructed me on what I needed to do and stood by me throughout times when I was struggling with the things we were being put through as a family. Mary was always there.”

“This lady is the BEST there is! The experience and knowledge she holds is on another level, her understanding, her compassion and her approach is everything a family needs to get through these gruelling stages of our lives. Without Mary things could have been a whole lot different for our family and for that we are truly grateful. Mary, we can’t thank you enough, and if anybody asks who represented me, I will be sending them straight to you!”

“I would like to commend the outstanding work and commitment I have been lucky enough to experience during my lengthy, successful child custody case. Mary Holmes inherited my case which was extremely complex. She has spent countless hours going through the paperwork to eventually succeed in my winning custody of my son. I cannot thank MSB Solicitors and Mary in particular enough for the success. I will endeavour to recommend MSB Solicitors for all legal representation in future. Please accept my sincere thanks for all the work which Mary carried out in such a professional manner.”

“I met Mary when I really thought my life was over. I had just had my son removed from my care and within about three hours of him being removed Mary was in contact with me and ready to help. She went above and beyond for me, attended every meeting and chased the local authority and guardian constantly. When I decided that my barrister wasn’t right for me, Mary immediately found me a new barrister and passed over the case very quickly. She was always there for me, to listen to me and fight my corner in every instance. I really cannot thank Mary enough for everything that she has done for my family and I. She is one of the most genuine and caring people I have ever met and is never too shy to provide you with some home truths when necessary. If you are ever in a situation where you need a family solicitor, no case is too complex for her. I was told numerous times that I would never win this case and that my son would be gone forever. However this did not deter Mary and I believe it made her fight even more. Mary was happy to deal with my sometimes unreasonable requests and I felt I could never ask too much from her. She never judged me and always supported me through the whole case. I truly believe that Mary went out of her way to help me, and did more than I could of ever asked from her. Mary is an angel, someone you can rely on to help you in your darkest times.”

“Mary Holmes is the one person I would want to represent me or my family. I have known Mary for over thirty years and she has never lost her enthusiasm or energy for representing parents. Mary goes all out for her clients. Some lawyers are accused of thinking all their geese are swans but Mary sees people as swans who have lost a few feathers along the the tricky road of life and who deserve to be treated with respect. However, Mary is a realist. She says it how it is and the clients love her for it. On a professional front, Mary always sends full instructions in time for hearings. I never worry about having a brief, instructions, a bundle or court details when doing one of her cases. Mary will get involved in the drafting of orders when she feels it appropriate but this is never done in an overbearing way and she always works collaboratively. I can’t recommend her highly enough.”

“I just wanted to say, on behalf of myself and the other counsel, how impressed we were with Mary Holmes. Our case was not only intrinsically difficult, there was a huge amount going on behind the scenes that severely tested all our professionalism and skill. Mary was, however, just fantastic at dealing, forcefully but appropriately and humanely, with everything the case threw at us. The parents could not have had a better lawyer. We all feel that Mary is one of the very best lawyers that we have worked with and are left with immense respect for her and for MSB.”
