Can anyone please recommend a London based lawyer who is familiar with narcissism (specifically covert)?

I would be really grateful to receive more recommendations if anyone has any?

Judgeyjudy: I think I have come to the conclusion of narcissism after stumbling across information on it... what makes you think of it? I'm not sure how it manifested itself, I think it has always been there but buried under the guise of communication issues.

If you can agree most things between you then costs wont mount up. Its only when one or both parties are unreasonable that it gets ridiculous.

Mediation might help.

i can only sympathise with you OP - my fees were £95k and i got fully stitched up - my solicitor claimed got all the narc bullshit but it was just a ploy to lead me to final hearing - for those of you suggesting mediation and fees wont be much if you are reasonable have no idea what c77nts these men are - they play a game to emotionally and financially destroy you - check out on here - www.reviewsolicitors.co.uk/

unfortunately i found this site too late - good luck

Jaxinthebox, would you mind sending me the details also? Thank you v much

How on earth do those fees rack up? If a lawyer charges £400/hour + VAT, what are those hundreds/thousands of hours allocated to proportionately?

I am bewildered!

My partners solicitor was £200 per hour +VAT, they charge for receiving the email, reading the email and a response. Phone calls are charged for.
If you have a narc ex wife like my partner then the bill easily goes into thousands. She complained about everything! Picking fly sh!t out of pepper they said. The barrister in court for the FDR was £5k.
If your not being petty and playing stupid games then you'll have a smaller bill. Good luck

@southbailey Hi, I know this is an old thread but please if you see this - could you tell me who your solicitor at crisp and co was and which crisp and co branch (as there are several)? I'm at a total loss, my narcissistic ex is getting everything he wants and I am starting to lose faith. I need to change lawyers, and find one who knows how to deal with narcissistic types.

Thank you so much for your help. I hope you and your family are well in these difficult times!
