Testimonials of James' work

Due to the nature of work, all testimonials are private

Clear, transparent care

James has been very kind and clear with his help. I have found him to be incredibly efficient and has achieved a good result for me. James set out his costs beforehand, detailing what each stage would involve, meaning I was fully aware of the monetary implications of each decision. This is not usual but has been enormously helpful to me. Overall, I’ve found James to be immensely knowledgeable and so patient making sure I understood every step. I would have no hesitation in recommending James to anyone. The legal element of divorce is lifted from your shoulders, so well worth the cost!

Top Class Family Lawyer in York (and Yorkshire)

I was going through a very difficult divorce with my ex-husband who is a top notch narcissist. It took me a while and substantially out of pocket to realise that the usual so called top divorce law firms were completely out of their depths. Not only did they lack empathy, they were simply played by my ex. I was distraught and watched in disbelief how my ex manipulated everyone involved. This was going to cost me my fair share in our matrimonial home after 16 years of marriage and most importantly, my ability to look after my child in the short term. When I found James online I was apprehensive due to previous experience but after our first call I felt I was in safe hands. James was credible, professional, patient and available. He appreciated the emotional and financial implications of my case and worked hard to come up with an excellent strategy. In short, James helped me win my case and restored my faith in lawyers. If you’re going through a difficult family situation and need an experienced, credible and responsive lawyer who can get you RESULTS, don’t waste your time elsewhere, please contact James. I highly recommend his services- it is simply first class.

Divorce settlement

James Thornton was instrumental in the success of my divorce settlement in 2018, for which I am truly grateful, his support and reassurance together with a calm approach got me through a difficult situation. James was once again successful in a recent follow up court case that I had to endure. Hopefully I will not require his services in the future, however, I would highly recommend James to resolve any divorce case with great humour. Thank you for everything!!
