Unfortunately a very stressful and in the end unprofessional experience at the hands of Mercy Messenger solicitors. Badly advised at the beginning by the solicitor handling the family side only for her to go off sick indefinitely almost from the very start leaving you in the hands of Mercy herself which proved very damaging and expensive. Her recommendation and usage of barristers proved a complete waste of time and money both for the family and also financial sides. In court not only was one misinformed and totally out of her depth but another charged full day for @3 hours work. Mercy is very good at selling you the promise and comes across with an almost arrogant demeanour that does install some sort of confidence in you that she will deliver but alas proved not so. I have since been informed from a close friend who’s ex wife used Mercy just how much it cost her and how much it echoed my own experience with broken promises and lack of fight. There are so many better law firms out there as I found after coming away from Mercy because I was afraid she would not only wipe me out but destroy all hope with the children side. Alas I should have been brave enough to walk away for the financial as well. To end it all Mercy sent the final bill to my seriously ill father with no communication to myself and did not have the courtesy to complete my divorce. I write this with a heavy heart as I am not normally this annoyed but I would not want anyone else to feel how I do.
