Installation of domestic sewage treatment plant

We needed to register drainage rights for our new sewage treatment plant into the neighbouring farmer’s field on our respective property deeds. Rizzwana was amazing at keeping us informed every step of the way, and at responding immediately to any queries we had. The solicitor acting for the farmer was unresponsive for long periods of time in the process, causing the whole thing to take about 8 months in the end. This made us realise how lucky we were to have Rizzwana acting for us, AND to appreciate her patience and tenacity in keeping going in the face of frustrating behaviours by others. Rizzwana was also very human with us, and her personal touch was much appreciated, particularly at times when the process became a bit stressful. She ultimately guided us (and the process) through to a successful conclusion, which had a very significant positive impact on our domestic circumstances. Her technical knowledge in navigating through a slightly complicated arrangement was evident. We can’t recommend Rizzwana highly enough.

Brilliant service provided by Rizzwana. She dealt with everything required both promptly and efficiently. I did not have to chase her once, such a refreshing change from my past history of using other law firms. So friendly and approachable. I would highly recommend Rizzwana and wouldn't hesitate to use her services again.

Extremely satisfied

Rizzwana handled a sale for us, and we were more than satisfied. These days we presume that these things will take forever, but we were wrong. Rizzwana is very professional and friendly, what ever needs addressing or attending to is done promptly and followed up regularly if not resolved. Overall a very positive experience and should we need a solicitor in the future Rizzwana would be our first phone call.

Walker Foster Solicitors came highly recommended when purchasing my new property. My solicitor was Rizzwana Bashir who I can't thank enough! She updated me almost every other day and I can't express how quick she dealt with the whole process. From start to end, it took 6 week which is incredible. I can't thank Rizzwana enough for her work. I would definitely be recommending her to my family and friends
