Child Law

Not only a lawyer but a great human being

I found Shumyla during one of the hardest times of my life, fighting in court for my child. Having her by my side has meant so much to me. She works until late and somehow is there again early in the morning, I honestly don’t know how she does it. She keeps me updated, remembers the details and always makes time to give me advice. But what I appreciate most is how human she is. I try to be strong, but I’m not strong all the time. Sometimes I cry, sometimes I feel lost, and she listens with patience and kindness. At such a difficult time, that means more than people realise. I would choose her and her team again without hesitation. Baris is also an incredible lawyer, and I’m so grateful to have them both beside me. Thank you, Shumyla, for your hard work, your care and for being there when I’ve needed you most. I recommend you with all my heart.

I found Shumyla Sheikh during one of the hardest times of my life, fighting in court for my child. Having her by my side has meant so much to me. She works until late and somehow is there again early in the morning. I honestly don’t know how she does it. :) She keeps me updated, remembers the details and always makes time to give me advice when I go a little crazy But what I appreciate most is how human she is. I try to be strong, but I’m not strong all the time. Sometimes I cry, sometimes I feel lost, and she listens with patience and kindness. At such a difficult time, that means more than people realise. I would choose her and her team again without hesitation. Baris Ulusoy is also an incredible lawyer, and I’m so grateful to have them both beside me, I had the pleasure to meet him in person and we exchanged a good energy. He’s an incredible lawyer, with a brilliant career. Thank you, dear Shumyla and dear Baris , for your hard work, your care and for being there when I’ve needed you most. I recommend you with all my heart.
