I felt comfortable dealing with Chris from the very start. He listened to what I had to say, explained everything and made me feel confident I was in good hands. Communicating directly with him was excellent.

I had an hours advice from a solicitor at the cost of £95 this was worth the money. He was so helpful and gave me a lot of advice on what to do with my small claims court and what to write and what to do moving forward. Also what he can do for me if I needed further help and the costs I highly recommend

We had struggled with a dispute with an ex landlord for over a year. Chris Miller managed to obtain a favourable resolution within a few months despite the ex landlord being very uncooperative. Highly recommended
