Advocate Barbara Corbett named one of the Top 100 Private Client Lawyers

Heads a fantastic practice - not motivated by fee income but by doing the right thing, particularly for children in the case. Brings the right balance to clients particularly in difficult disputes

Barbara is solicitor of the highest calibre. I have found her to be incredibly efficient, prompt in her replies, helpful, supportive and patient. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to future clients.

A friend recommended Barbara Corbett to handle my divorce, I will be eternally grateful to my friend for this advice. My husband had started divorce proceedings in Jersey and I had been given some erroneous information regarding legal representation and domicile status. The UK law firm I had engaged felt I would be in a better position with a Jersey Lawyer and were unable to assist further with my case. I emailed Barbara in a bit of a panic and was amazed to see her response within a few hours. She was very knowledgeable and professional, she did her utmost to calm and reassure me that the divorce could be resolved in a straightforward manner. We arranged a meeting to discuss my options and during this meeting and subsequent communication, I felt Barbara showed genuine empathy and compassion to my situation. Barbara was very patient and discussed how the divorce process worked, she explained I needed to be realistic in my expectations but she had a quiet confidence that she would do her utmost to bring my divorce and financial settlement to satisfactory conclusion. The fees were fully transparent and fair, and payment options were also available. I would not hesitate to recommend Barbara Corbett or Corbett and Le Quesne to anyone looking for legal representation.

Barbara Corbett is an unusual lawyer. She is not motivated to make the most money she can for herself out of her client. The best outcome for the client is her driving force. She is approachable, personable, prompt in her response, but at the same time measured, with great attention to detail. She does not talk in 'legalese' for those of us who struggle with esoteric jargon, so one is not intimidated. I have yet to come across a lawyer who explains things so well and in so straightforward a way. Now you may assume, in view of the aforementioned qualities, that Barbara Corbett would be soft with the other side. That would be a false assumption, for I would be happy to pitch her against anyone.
