Quartz Barristers Avis 

This was my first time being in court, I received really helpful information and I could not have asked for more support, Khairie Gedal was brilliant! He was really friendly and offered great advice and in-depth information about my case. I cannot thank you enough!

Represented by John Hudson for FDR and final hearing. Pleased with John's expertise and delivery. Much better than previous solicitors/barristers. Without John's good work I'm not sure if I would have achieved the same outcome.

Just had a experience working with Mr John Hudson, a pleasure to deal with, extremely professional and a really nice guy. Thankyou for all your help and advice at this very difficult time for me, all the best going forward. DK

Having finally been granted a successful outcome in a lengthy legal process, I can firmly say that Khairie is simply the best there is. Khairie was appointed as my third barrister in my proceedings and there really is no comparison. From the moment we met I knew I’d struck gold - he had read every single detail of my case, he understood the complexities of it, and quite incredibly, he genuinely cared. He is the upmost professional, he is prepared, flexible, person-centred and dynamic. He represented me and my case in the most powerful way, bringing the truth to light and securing a safe and successful outcome for me and my family. I hope to never need legal representation ever again, but if I do, there’s only one person I would trust.
Khairie - I’ll never forget what you’ve done for me and my family - thank you, thank you, thank you a thousand times over

I would highly recommend Richard Bloomfield of Quartz Barristers.

I was introduced to the idea of finding a Barrister at short notice by a solicitor. The only way this felt possible was through the internet. James at Quartz Barristers was very helpful in finding the right person, Richard Bloomfield.

I would recommend Richard Bloomfield to anyone who needs representation in a Bankruptcy matter. This is a very complex specialised area of law. The witness statement he prepared was professional, detailed, and thorough. His passion, expertise and experience were reflected in his winning edge.

The solicitor representing a very large European Accounting and Trustee Company offered not to go ahead with the court hearing as Richard Bloomfield's expertly prepared witness statement gave my case the winning edge.

I had the good fortune to instruct Khairie Gedal on a direct access basis to represent me in a family matter. He was excellent. Put me at ease, explained the relevant law and how he proposed dealing with the issues on my behalf before the court hearing. But, at the same time involved me in that process so I was comfortable with that and understood his approach to the case. At court, he was excellent, drew the court to the relevant issues and succeeded in getting an order in my favour. I hope I have no need to use a family barrister again, but if I do he will be my first port of call.

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 case has been ongoing for over seven years. I have lost count of the numbers of Barristers and law firms I have tried. It appears to me that most law firms over promise and under deliver.
I was recently put in touch with Catherine Hewitt via Direct Access Barristers. I can safely say it has been an absolute pleasure to work with Catherine and James (Catherine’s clerk). They have been professional throughout and more important to me – Honest and efficient.
I have no idea when the nightmare of dealing with the “court system” will end. But I now sleep through the night.
Thank you Catherine and James.

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!

A huge thank you to John Hudson. His thorough and meticulous approach ensured the optimum outcome in the case. His cross examination of the witnesses was entirely systematic, rigorous and effective. John Hudson is someone you want on your side. He is worth every penny. He is the best investment I have ever made.

As a litigant in person, I highly recommend him. He made himself available when I needed even on weekends and at short notice. He ensured I was aware of everything that needed to be done and anticipated the advice that I needed when I was unaware of things. He also provided priceless modelling and advice for the crucial section 25 statement.

I cannot thank John Hudson enough for his hard work, dedication and enthusiasm. I will be forever grateful for his expertise. John Hudson is an excellent investment.

Thank you to Senior Clerk James for your efficiency and speedy response.Thank you Kairie for your expertise,confidence and ability to do the unthinkable and turn things around in a positive,professional and calm manner.I highly recommend!

Contacted James Petts at Quartz who listened to me and made me feel at ease to then put me in touch with Claire Litchfield, Claire is very friendly and professional throughout can not thank her enough would recommend %110

Esther Cantor is a genuine person, she really gets to the heart of the matter. Esther is excellent at what she does and I cannot thank her enough. I highly recommend her as a barrister.

Further to my recent review about the refusal to refund £2100 I have lodged a claim in the Small Claims Court.
They are using a firm of solicitors to respond to this and offered £100 in full and final settlement.
I have rejected their offer.

Richard Bloomfield is an exceptional Barrister with a wealth of knowledge & experience which shows. I had a several large fraud cases on going at Newcastle Crown Court and it didn’t look promising from the outset with masses of files and over 30 witnesses & £197k in dispute.

Richard used his knowledge and experience to pull the case apart with financials and followed the money something the prosecution never done.

Richard is not only a lovely gentleman but an exceptionally experienced methodical and meticulous man who put my mind at ease during the most stressful period of my life.

Cannot recommend Richard enough to anyone in need.

"Words can not express my gratitude to John Hudson. He dealt with my non disclosing partner with intelligence and tenacity. His skills in cross examination was incredible to watch. He secured me a fair settlement far beyond what I was expecting. I shall always be grateful.
John responded to all of my concerns straight away whether or not it was an evening or a weekend. He managed to keep me calm during what I always knew were going to be very difficult proceedings."

Everything about them is great. First contact was with James Petts, senior Clark, and he is very efficient and intelligent person.For example I sometimes found him working even evenings on weekends. In short, he is always there to help nevigate clients any time they need.

Background:
Throughout the journey of family law proceedings, I remained unrepresented as I remained hopeful one day I could save marriage and my children will be benefited. I know I lost initially due to that approach, but I do not regret as I did what was right.

Other party took advantage of my weakness, and got all orders against me and in their favour, and almost all of them with my consent.

Seeing my soft position, my wife applied for Non Molestation order for 5 years and her solicitor started openly blackmailing and threatening me in his letters that if I won't accept Non Molestation order they will report my employer etc.

They even slummed so low in morality that they actualy started reporting about the Family proceedings and court orders to my employer and made flagrant breaches of court confidentiality orders only to harm my career.

I remained patient and never took any unethical step despite other party/mother of my children was acting blindly on solicitor malicious advices.

Finally I decided to stand for my rights and instructed a counsel Miss A Howey. She represented me in court and Non Molestation order was discharged.

In finance proceedings I met my Counsel personally, I was impressed by her friendly and benevolent nature.
For example , she even reminded me to collect my luggage when she realised I might forget to collect my belongings in court room due to emotional stress.

As an upright professional, she tried to settle proceedings within Dispute resolution to save finances of both parties when she found my wife has managed to spend around 30/40 thousand pounds on legal costs despite all orders were with my agreement, and consent.
This is evident how solicitors especially in Family law proceedings are unprincipled and are even detrimental to their own clients and make whole family proceedings spiteful with motive of financial gain. Clients never realise the financial loss till the dopaminergic effect/ satisfaction with winning case is over.

I will continue to instruct Miss A Howey in my further Child care proceedings.

In a profession of very mixed abilities and service levels where the only certainty is the big bill, John Hudson is the real deal. He is knowledgeable, calm, thoughtful, prepares effectively, focuses on getting the best possible result and is not a schmoozer like so many in the divorce business. Settled at FDR against the pestilent tactics of the other side, very satisfied with his work.

I felt I received all the guidance I needed to enable me to the end result I deserved. Khairie was nothing but efficient.
For me your service was above excellence, huge thanks to Khairie for all the help and support he provided me with. He is knowledgeable, very professional, helpful and friendly, very well-versed in dealing with even the most complex and voluminous cases. I would highly recommend him from Quartz Barristers.

James sourced a range of Barristers who were likely to be available for the Court Hearing. We had a pre decision talk through the problems to date and what was required of the Barrister chosen Catherine Hewitt no pressure. The Barrister was Professional throughout and grasped the complex situation. She was also warm with a friendly manner. We feel that she went above and beyond and was great in her communication throughout.
