The award-winning Fosters Legal in Stevenage is celebrating over a decade in business, but the ethos which has underpinned the practice’s 10 years of success remains firmly at the forefront of founder Sandra Foster’s thinking as she looks to the future.
First and foremost, Sandra has placed Fosters Legal at the heart of the community, with an unwavering commitment to ensuring that local people on lower incomes and benefits have somewhere they can turn to for legal representation.
To underpin this commitment, Fosters Legal offer a free initial 30-minute consultation to new clients aimed at those least able to afford legal advice.
Said Sandra: “We also provide pro bono advice in cases of domestic abuse. The team works to ensure that vulnerable individuals are not left without support when facing life’s toughest challenges.
“Fosters Legal aims to bridge the gap between those people and the legal services they might otherwise struggle to access.”
In February Sandra was in San Francisco to attend a graduation ceremony, where she received a Honorary Doctorate of Philosophy in Strategic Business, Law & Community Empowerment."The doctorate is all part of my work here in the community," added Sandra.
Fosters Legal has carved out a strong reputation across several core areas of law, particularly those that impact everyday lives. These include:
- Family law, including divorce, child arrangements and domestic matters
- Employment law, helping individuals resolve workplace issues
- Immigration law, guiding clients through often complex UK processes
- Wills and probate
This breadth of expertise allows the firm to support clients through many of life’s defining moments – from relationship breakdowns and employment disputes to planning for the future or starting a new life in the UK.
For Sandra, who heads up the Family Law section of the firm, Fosters Legal’s personal approach is an integral part of the firm’s DNA, she said: “Rather than a one-size-fits-all model, we pride ourselves on listening carefully to each client’s situation and tailoring its advice accordingly.”
"We have proven experience, effective communication, and a compassionate approach. Foster Legal’s family law team offers personalised advice tailored to each client’s unique circumstances, with transparent fees and a commitment to accessible legal support for low-income clients."
Whether offering direct legal representation or connecting clients with specialist barristers and partner firms, the focus is always on ensuring individuals receive the right help at the right time.
Fosters Legal’s work within the community hasn’t gone unnoticed. The firm has been recognised for its contribution to the community, including national acknowledgment for its work supporting low-income clients, and the work the firm does in relation to Child and Family Law.
