Exceptional support.

Sunahjit supported me when I was taken to court by my ex-husband after I fled domestic violence in my marriage and was living in a shelter. It was a very difficult time in my life. She really understood me, even when I found it hard to express myself. She was very kind, patient, and supportive throughout the whole process. I am very grateful for her help and for treating me with respect and understanding. I will never forget the support she gave me during such a difficult time.

Outstanding service

Couldn’t have been better. She listened to everything I had to say and did everything that needed to be done, it was last minute me asking them to represent me but regardless she still made sure everything was in place and made sure she was there on the day. Overall an amazing service and I couldn’t recommend her enough, very professional and skilled, would definitely recommend.

Overwhelmingly positive experience

I sought legal advice from this firm post-final court order, and Sunahjit with her swift and tenacious work ethic, was an absolute wonder to work with. Sunahjit understood my limited finances and at no point was I made to feel as if my case was any less important. I was understood, approached with care, and kept at full communication throughout the duration of my application to the court. (I made the mistake of not going Bhatia Best Solicitors the first time around; I will not be making the same mistake again!)

Excellent service

I have had the pleasure of Sunahjit Mahal representing me at court very recently, in family proceedings. Sunahjit has been thorough and understanding in all of our communication, and has acted professsionally whilst also being compassionate. I have very limited personal experience of court and the legal system and I was very anxious, Sunahjit explained every step to me and possible outcomes which helped me understand proceedings and minimised my anxiety and fears. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sunahjit or Bhatia Best to friends and family. Thank you so much.

Top quality service

I couldn’t have asked for a better solicitor. Sunahjit has always answered all of my questions & helped to put my fears & anxieties to ease when attending court. She was with me every step of the way & supported me through a very traumatic period. I can’t thank her enough for all of her time & hard work in enabling us to be safe.
