I had a very positive experience with Mrs Isatara islam and Mr Ashar khan as my solicitors. They helped me a lot throughout the whole process and were always very supportive. Both of them were professional, kind, and extremely helpful whenever I had any questions or concerns. They made everything much easier to understand and handled my case with care and dedication. I truly appreciate all their hard work and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and excellent legal support thank you Ashar and Ishatara for your help

My paralegal Sandra was absolutely amazing. For over 2 years she supported me through court and helped me win my case and my safety by going above and beyond. The most organised, attentive and kindest person I have ever had the pleasure of being a client of. I am so happy with my service from the whole team at faranhi taylors as they honestly are so hard working and complete every task with 100% effort for their clients.

I spent a very difficult few weeks, trying to find  the right legal advisor  to help me. It's  a big step to tell someone your  situation when you've  never told anyone  before. Within minutes of seeking professional advice from Mr Ashar Khan, I was totally reassured. Without hesitation, he explained in a few sentences what the options were and how my situation could be resolved. I expected some loopholes and difficulties, but everything  he said, he backed up with  clarity,  time scales and the law. I  left  the appointment confident , amazed and immensely relieved. Ashar Khan was totally reassuring at every stage of the process, I felt able to raise any issue troubling me with him. He  answered every concern and resolved it , which seemed utterly unimaginable just a  few weeks previously. Everything followed the plan as he had initially described and he kept me fully informed at every stage of the process. He took the time to really understand the issues and his  attention to recording  details accurately  was reflected in the subsequent legal papers. I am so  grateful  for the  hard work and incredible support Ashar Khan and his colleagues Samira and Mrs Islam have  given me throughout this process. I never had to repeat things , they all were up to date with my case, showing that communication is clearly exceptional in the team. I always felt safe in the knowledge that my case was in the best possible hands  as  a positive relationship had been established at the very first meeting. I highly recommend Ashar Khan and the  Farani Taylor Team to anyone who is seeking a lawyer they can trust to take on their case  and look after their wellbeing with integrity, professionalism and care  to achieve the best outcome. I will always be grateful for the life changing impact Ashar Khan  has had on my life and future.

My case lasted two years—an incredibly painful and emotionally draining experience. Throughout it all, Sandra Brown was a constant source of strength and clarity. She was a bright light during one of the darkest chapters of my life, and I truly couldn’t recommend her more. Her professionalism is unmatched, but what sets her apart is the genuine human touch she brings to every interaction. She’s not just a skilled professional—she’s a deeply compassionate, authentic person who truly cares. I’m incredibly grateful to Sandra for her unwavering support, guidance, and kindness. I honestly don’t know how I would’ve made it through without her.
