Exceptional Service

As a father, we normally start Child Proceedings in the back foot. That's where Arkadiy Bukh really made a difference in my case. They have provided exceptional support from the day I have applied for CAO and have been there for me to guide me through the long and painful 18 months until the Final he...aring. The court order finally came through - The Child lives solely with the father. I would like to emphasize the great support from my Solicitor. His expertise, his professionalism, his recommended approaches to navigate some of the most challenging days of my life really made an impact on the final outcome. I can't recommend Arkadiy highly enough.

I can’t speak highly enough of Arkadiy Bukh

I had an excellent experience with Arkady Bukh, who represented me in complex financial remedy proceedings following separation. The matter involved a high-conflict ex and was extremely stressful, but Arkadiy was consistently calm, strategic, and thorough. His advice was clear, well-judged, and reas...suring at every stage, and I always felt he had a firm grip on both the detail and the wider strategy. Thanks to his professionalism and commitment, the case concluded successfully. I would not hesitate to recommend Arkadiy Bukh to anyone needing expert support with family finance matters.

Smart, capable, compassionate

Arkadiy guided me through one of the hardest periods of my life with remarkable skill and compassion. From start to finish, they were professional, organised, and always one step ahead. What stood out most was how thoughtful and understanding they were — I never felt like just another client. Their i...ntelligence and efficiency made a daunting process much smoother and less stressful. Arkadiy's kind and calm advice was always correct and demonstrated her wisdom and experience. I also appreciated his subtle efforts to keep my costs down. When I walked into court I realised I wasn't nervous, as I was so confident in my legal support. I’m deeply grateful for their support and would recommend Arkadiy Bukh to anyone looking for an exceptional family lawyer.

Great lawyer

I would like to thank Arkadiy Bukh for helping and getting me through my divorce. I would especially like to thank Arkadiy for helping me with my divorce. His expertise and demeanor kept me at ease throughout the whole process, I cannot thank him enough. I found the price for my divorce reasonable.... I would recommend Arkadiy Bukh to use for a divorce

Excellent service

Many thanks to Arkadiy Bukh for his support through a very difficult time. From the first meeting, he was understanding and empathetic about my situation and always explained everything clearly, ensuring I understood my options, next steps and what I needed to do to move the process forward. He also ...always responded promptly to any queries I raised and ensured there was always a colleague with knowledge of my case who could assist if he was on leave, etc. Arkadiy dealt effectively with the delays caused by my ex’s refusal to engage with the process and worked incredibly hard to ensure we could get the terms of the financial order agreed without a further court hearing, therefore saving me a significant amount in costs, in spite of the lack of cooperation from the other side. I was also impressed with Arkadiy collaborative working culture which meant that when tricky issues came up, He consulted appropriately with specialist colleagues to ensure he was providing the best advice he could.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education

  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
