Protecting you, and helping you to move forward safely and securely.

Domestic abuse can happen to anyone. Accepting that you are in an abusive relationship is the first step. Finding the courage to reach out for legal support is the second.

Our specialist team of domestic abuse solicitors can help. After listening carefully, we’ll clearly explain the options available to you.

If the situation presents an immediate risk, we can step in and act urgently to protect you and your children. This may involve applying for emergency injunctions, which we can organise swiftly and without the abuser’s knowledge. We can also attend court at very short notice and, if necessary, out of office hours.

Your safety is our priority, and our objective is to provide short-term protection allowing you to consider your long-term options and move forward.

Let our specialist team advise and guide you during distressing times.

“Our greatest thanks to Mariam Hussain and Natalie Intasean for doing such a sterling job under very difficult circumstances. Communication was first rate, although they were extremely busy with the additional pressure caused by the SDLT holiday deadline, which they completed for us with hours to spare before its expiry. They must have had so many completions to get through within a precise timeframe! Mariam is happy to phone re queries, clarification, and information. What a great team – wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them. This is the NINTH time we’ve used SE-Solicitors for four sales and five purchases.”
Client 2021
“We couldn’t recommend the team at SE-Solicitors enough. Having used their conveyancing services when we bought our first house, it was only natural we would return to them in the selling and buying of a new house.

We wouldn’t use any other solicitors, SE-Solicitors are certainly the best in the area.”

Client, Google Review 2023
“Having used the Brackley branch of SE-Solicitors for the sale of my house I was more than keen to use them for purchase of my new property a few months later. Terena has been incredibly efficient and kept me fully informed throughout. I’d happily recommend her to anyone looking for conveyancing.”
Miss S (Cheltenham), Gloucestershire
“I purchased a plot of land for a self-build property in the North-East. Finding a firm for conveyancing was tricky. Many firms said they could, but I soon learned they didn’t have the competency. SE-Solicitors came to the rescue, and were knowledgeable about such transactions. At every step of the way, Karen provided precise instructions and communication was open. She followed up in a timely manner to keep things moving. SE-Solicitors were patient as the transaction took longer than expected due to the purchase being tied to approved planning permission. Despite the complexity, I couldn’t have asked for a more painless process. For me, SE-Solicitors was a safe pair of hands.”

“I purchased a plot of land for a self-build property in the North-East. Finding a firm for conveyancing was tricky. Many firms said they could, but I soon learned they didn’t have the competency. Spratt Endicott came to the rescue, and were knowledgeable about such transactions. At every step of the way, Karen provided precise instructions and communication was open. She followed up in a timely manner to keep things moving. Spratt Endicott were patient as the transaction took longer than expected due to the purchase being tied to approved planning permission. Despite the complexity, I couldn’t have asked for a more painless process. For me, Spratt Endicott was a safe pair of hands.”
