Stephanie Heijdra Barrister Reviews 

Thank you for being my saving grace. Won the case for me after I messed it up trying to represent myself. Now I can see my kids just as I wanted . Can’t pay you enough for all your effort . Even when I call her midnight ,she is there to listen and advise me on what step to take . She did her best to make sure the case does not extend beyond the ordinary. I'm grateful for not trying to extort like other barristers wanting to prolong your case just to extort. Thank you steph

I engaged Stephanie Heijdra for a child arrangement matter. I will describe my experience with her as remarkable. She is professional, intelligent and very friendly.

Stephanie Heijdra is incredible! I was representing myself up till now, and my abusive ex has continued his manipulation and control throughout proceedings. Stephanie put a stop to it today, and I cannot thank her enough. She understood my case perfectly, and was an absolute boss in the courtroom, this hearing went 100% my way, he ran off with his tail between his legs. 🤣
Thank you so, so much Stephanie. X

Stephanie Heijdra recently represented me for the 4th time through several review hearings and an urgent hearing that I had to call regarding my children. Throughout the proceedings, Stephanie has been supportive, understanding, given sound advice and reassurance. She always shows true professionalism and is very experienced in her field. She is a highly skilled barrister and takes the time to explain complex information and handles all parties with compassion. I would highly recommend her services.

Stephanie Heijdra is simply amazing. I've been going through the court process to see my son for almost a year and I finally called upon Stephanie's expertise. Thanks to Stephanie attending my hearing and passionately fighting my case, I will now get to see my little boy. Thank you so much Stephanie

Stephanie Heijdra, I can not thank her enough. She is such an amazing woman and Barrister. Her dedication to my case was outstanding. She went above and beyond and was always available to help with anything. I was so nervous at the hearing but she made me feel relaxed. Her knowledge of the Law, understanding and empathy was amazing, she really does put her clients first.I represented my self in the beginning and made a few mistakes. If only I had Stephanie to represent me from the start.I would highly recommend her to fight your corner with everything she has.I truly am grateful for everything you have done Stephanie.

Honestly Stephanie helped me so much, fast efficient and a pleasure to have her helping me though a very difficult time, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her!

Stephanie heijdra is AMAZING !
This is the second time I’ve asked her to represent me and I will be using her again. She really did calm me down and reassured me. It should have been an hour case which turned into a full day
Thank you Stephanie

Stephanie is absolutely fantastic!! Worth her weight in gold and the best money we have ever spent! She took our case on at such short notice and nothing was too much trouble!! She made us feel at ease immediately, knew the law inside and outside and how to handle any situation! I would highly recommend Stephanie to anyone but in particular fathers who feel they are about to lose their children because of her I feel like now there is light at the end of the tunnel. We also personally want to thank Sam at Clerksroom Direct! He was quick to respond, so very helpful and on the end of the phone/email if we needed him! Without him and his expertise we would never have known about Stephanie! We highly recommend both these people to everyone!

Stephanie is so great - the type of barrister you do not want to be up against and definitely the one want in your corner! She’s diligent and direct and got fantastic results for me, I wish I’d hired her sooner.

NOT RECOMMENDED.

I HAVE LOST MY 3 CHILDREN AS A DIRECT RESULT OF FAILURES CAUSED BY THIS BARRISTER.

The reply provided by the barrister is false & based on misleading & lies by her.

I can add all my communications, correspondence, instructions about this barrister & to this barrister online if needed for public to read.

This barrister is not even reading the case. She was asking for the case documentations ( all of which were already sent to her at the point of her instruction) on the day of hearing about 1 hour before the hearing while she was driving from London to Bournemouth in the snowy motorway.

This Barrister’s idea is no need to read the case, just turn up on the hearing day, agree with everything the Cafcass person & other party says & close the case.

At my previous hearing the judge ordered the Cafcass person who wrote section 7 report to attend the court for Coss-Examination due to numerous factual errors within her report.
On the day of trial Stephanie decided instead of cross-examination to negotiate with the same Cafcass person!
Stephanie took her laptop & just typed whatever the Cafcass person & my ex-partner ( both with the same Polish Nationality) told her.
She then presented that agreement to the court & that became the court order.
Within that agreement were fortnightly supervised contact centre & community visits with the duration of approximately 2 years at £65 per hour plus other additional charges.
Also within her agreement was a supervised video calls.
I have NEVER been any risk to my children. Totally opposite; I am a devoted father, dearly love my children & I was seeking justice for my 3 children.
Therefore my barrister failed to defend me & just wrote whatever the Cafcass person & my ex-partner told her.
Furthermore, the family court could not decide on the case because my barrister already made an agreement with them.
My ex-partner who is a qualified solicitor used her knowledge & experience in Law to completely abuse the Legal System, falsely played the victim game & she got away with it.
My hope was that Stephanie expose my ex-partner together with the false report created by Cafcass person, let the court to decide the case & get justice for my 3 children.
A 3 hours community visit would have cost me in excess of £300 per session.
My barrister ( Stephanie) did not do what I instructed her to do during the trial hearing and instead of showing to the court the Cafcass report was false & court should set that report aside, Stephanie allowed the same Cafcass person literally write the court order during the trial day.
Due to the financial implications of the court order created by Stephanie, I have not been able to see my 3 young children.
I truly believe my case was a clear example of miscarriage of Justice.

On the morning of the trial, I arrived 1 hour early to have conference with my barrister & discuss the case.
While I was in the court building , The barrister called me and said she was driving to the court & was asking me to email her numerous documents; that was few minutes before my trial began.

That indicated to me my barrister has not read the case & prepared herself for the trial hearing because all those documents she was asking for were already emailed to her few months earlier.

Stephanie is an AMAZING barrister, she knows the Law In and Out. I must say, I had a really messed up hearing initially with another solicitor and it felt like I was losing my kids. Then I hired Stephanie for the final hearing and she helped TURN the case around.Her professionalism is excellent, great communication, engagement and she took her time to break down my case and advised on possible outcome.
