Katherine Lauder
Katherine Lauder is a family solicitor that I would highly recommend.
Very professional and understanding. Communication was always clear and given with great care.
Katherine is someone who you can clearly tell is in her job because she loves it. Very approachable and made me feel at ease to openly discuss any matter without being judged. I cannot thank her enough for her time, patience and support.
Olivia and Laura were also great at communicating via emails and phone calls and all communication was dealt with in a timely matter.
Very disappointed with rwk goodman…
Very disappointed with rwk goodman who dealt with my separation of assets and simply paying off an old mortgage , creating issues where there weren’t any being passed to different colleagues weekly and then hit with a huge bill close to 10k , I still don’t have a final statement of costs , slow , poor and very expensive .
Katherine Lauder - Family Lawyer
Katherine acted on my behalf for well over a year. The whole experience from day one was absolutely first class.
Her knowledge (as you would expect from an RWK partner) is second to none. Her manner in helping me through a difficult period was exactly the right blend of professionalism and compassion. She was always prompt in her replies and always made time for me when I needed it.
Katherine achieved exactly what I had hoped for from the settlement, often in very difficult circumstances.
I cannot speak highly enough of Katherine and have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending her. If I were able to rate higher than 5 stars then I would!
Clear & Responsive Solicitor
Mailk and Marie both did a great job of carrying out the purchase of a property for me. They were very responsive to communications and a pleasure to speak with over the phone. I'd happily use their and RWK Goodman's services again.

Jemma and Georgina have been superb and very capable at conducting a purchase and sale of a property for me and girlfriend jade.
they will be highly recommended and hopefully we can work again together in the future
Gurpreet and the team are amazing
Gurpreet, Fajar and the amazing team at RWK have helped me on several occasions with sales and purchases of properties.
They are amazing at what they do, talk in plain English and so honest.
I would highly recommend.

I used Rwk goodman law firm (Oxford) to purchase my property. They were excellent specially my dealings mostly with Mr Malik khalid and Marie Doran, they both were very professional, knowledgeable and kept me updated every step of the process. Excellent service they have provided.
I would definitely recommend others to use them for property purchases.

Guided me through an inquest process
Guided me through an inquest process, with counsel and barrister, and a further compensation, with kindness, clarity and efficiency.
Word of mouth recommendation
I was recommended Jayne Martins by word of mouth to help with my divorce's financial settlement and paperwork. After an initial free consultation with her, I felt it was the best out of all the options I looked at and was happy to use her services as my solicitor. Other companies were charging extortionate rates in comparison, and if you didn't know what you were going to get, then that doesn't help. The fact that Jayne and RWK were recommended to me was already a big plus. Jayne is really nice, patient, super professional, timely, efficient and knowledgeable and was able to provide me with guidance and reassurance during this time. I felt very supported and confident that everything was in good hands. Her assistant Sam was also incredibly professional and efficient. Really happy with the service and outcome, especially as you don't really know what to expect if it's your first time. I can't recommend her and RWK highly enough, thank you!
Medical Negligence Claim
Sophie Angwin-Thornes dealt with my medical negligence claim with such compassion and professionalism, she kept me informed throughout the process. I couldn't recommend Sophie highly enough. A gem to the company. Thank you so much Sophie
We had David Hughes act on our behalf…
We had David Hughes act on our behalf he came to our house all the way from Oxford. We appreciated that.My late husband Trevor John had mesothelioma that he got from working with asbestos. David was very supportive and understanding so very nice and pleasant nothing too much trouble ever. Especially as we had only just found out what Trevor had got and trying to take it all in and with making a claim. David was so sincere I couldn’t have wished for anyone better and he succeeded in getting a good settlement for me so that I will not have to worry financially. I can only thank David so much for what he has done for me.
A Testament to Exceptional Legal Support and Understanding
From the very first call, it was evident that this firm genuinely cares. Unlike other law firms that dismissed my case without listening and within minutes or failed to follow up, this team not only took the time to listen but also demonstrated an in-depth understanding of the complexities involved.
They approached my situation with a level of empathy and expertise that is exceedingly rare in today’s legal landscape.
Having endured the challenges of post-traumatic adjustment disorder, I often find it difficult to articulate my thoughts swiftly. However, the team’s patience and attentiveness made me feel truly heard. They not only grasped the intricate details of my legal matter but also fully appreciated the difficulties I face in communicating due to PTAD.
This firm possesses sharp, swift legal minds who prioritise understanding their clients’ unique needs. Their combination of legal acumen and compassionate service, I believe sets them apart as an extraordinary resource in the legal field.
Exceptional in every sense—highly recommended for anyone seeking both depth of knowledge and genuine care.
Mesothelioma Compensation Claim
Michael Wolstencroft has been dealing with my dad’s asbestos compensation claim since I contacted RWKGoodman in January 2023. He has guided us through the whole process with such empathy, kindness and professionalism. All contact that was made with my dad during his battle with his terminal mesothelioma was done in a very sensitive way. Once my dad sadly died, he helped myself and my brother through to the end of the claim, being on hand whenever we needed his help or advice. With Michael’s expert help we won the claim with the insurance company and this has lead to a sizeable amount of compensation being paid to my mum for her loss. We can’t thank Michael enough and would highly recommend his services at RWKGoodman
Where do I start….
Where do I start….
I found my self in a really
Horrible personal/family situation last year and realised I needed legal support. I contacted Katherine and within a few days had a free 30 minute consultation with her. Katherine was genuinely so caring, kind and understanding and yet so professional. She explained everything to me and answered all of my questions. She gave me advice on what I needed to do next meaning I didn’t have to actually instruct her just yet but she explained if at any point I needed to instruct her she would be more than happy to. 1 year later we found ourselves being taken to court. I contacted Katherine who arranged a call straight away. I was really struggling with my mental health due to the stress of everything and again Katherine was so understanding. Katherine and her team where there every step of the way. Emails and calls responded to quickly and efficiently.
Having never used a solicitor before I didn’t know what to expect but Katherine and her team went above and beyond for me and my family resulting in us getting the best result in court!!
I can’t thank Katherine enough. Obviously I hope I never need legal support again but if I do I will be contacting Katherine straight away. For me finances was a huge difficulty. Katherine was very open and honest from day 1 about the fees and never put any pressure on us which again really helped us trust in her.
It’s really hard to put into words how incredible Katherine and her team where without going into my personal situation but honestly if you find yourself going to court for any family related issues including domestic violence and child protection concerns then I highly recommend you get in contact with Katherine.
Injury claim review
RWK Goodman's team thoroughly and diligently handled my injury claim over a protracted period of time, due to its nature. They were clear about the process, consequences of decisions and their advice throughout the case. The cases complications and legal pathways were expertly handled and brought to a final conculsion.
Prepared to go the extra mile
Laura and the team at RWK Goodman worked hard on our case. They were thorough and across all the detail of the claim. We were happy with what was achieved on our behalf.
Forced house sale - the Dream Team
I can’t praise the team of Ian McEwan and Scarlett Doyle,who took over my case, enough. I was in an awful domestic situation where I needed to force a house sale. Scarlett held my hand throughout the whole traumatic process. Nothing was ever to much trouble. She was kind,caring and her professionalism whilst dealing with the other parties Solicitors was second to none. I am now in a settled place and I know that this wouldn’t be the case if it wasn’t for Scarlett
Professional and compassionate
Loosing Dad was awful and we really weren't relishing going through the legal process. Rachel Hicks was absolutely amazing to deal with. She was professional, compassionate and friendly. She had patience with us when we had tears and we felt we could completely trust her to do the best for my Dad's memory.
Thank you Rachel, we couldn't have done it without you.
Micheal was amazing
