Family – divorce and financial remedy

“Olivia Piercy’s work in the economic abuse space makes her the go to person in this area. She has been my only contact at Hunters Law”

“Olivia Piercy stands out as someone who understands that financial remedy work, in the context of abusive relationships, is about far more than balance sheets. Survivors of economic abuse often arrive at financial proceedings having had little or no access to, or understanding of, the family finances. They may have been deliberately excluded, gaslit about what exists, or left financially destitute as a deliberate act of control. Olivia understands these dynamics instinctively and ensures that her clients are not further disadvantaged by their own lack of financial information.

Her ability to build trust with clients who have been conditioned not to trust — and to translate complex financial matters into language that empowers rather than overwhelms — is a genuine differentiator. She advocates with precision and tenacity, and her clients know they are in safe hands.
In a field where the law and lived human experience intersect so sharply, Olivia is exactly the kind of solicitor clients need in their corner.”

“Olivia Piercy is gaining a formidable reputation for her tireless work on domestic abuse issues, both in children and financial remedy proceedings. She is personable and approachable, but acutely aware of how to present a case and how to take strategic decisions in a client’s best interests.”

“Olivia Piercy is, quite simply, exceptional. What sets her apart is not only her command of the law but her ability to make clients feel genuinely seen and heard — something that cannot be overstated when working with survivors of domestic abuse and coercive control.”

“Olivia brings a rare combination of forensic legal skill and deep human atonement. She does not apply a one-size-fits-all approach; she takes the time to truly understand the individual in front of her — their history, their fears, their capacity at any given moment — and responds accordingly. For clients who have spent years having their experiences minimized or dismissed, this quality is transformative. Her expertise in domestic abuse matters is outstanding. She understands the dynamics of abuse, including the patterns that are often invisible to those outside the experience, and she is able to translate that understanding into effective, strategic legal advocacy. She is a powerful voice in proceedings where clients have historically struggled to be believed. Clients trust her. That trust is hard-won and speaks volumes.”

“Olivia Piercy has changed the law. Her work reflects a rare passion for justice, and a genuine commitment to her clients that goes far beyond the time-consuming nature of the cases she takes on. She fights tirelessly for the right outcome, and her impact on the field speaks for itself.”
