First rate lawyer
I have worked with Jo Walia now for some 18 years in my capacity as a costs lawyer and by recommending people to Jo who require expert advice. Jo is conscientious hard work and always puts her client's first. I have no hesitation in endorsing Jo's services.

Excellent, expert advice
From the moment we got in touch with Jo, she provided us with the utmost respect and provided us with excellent, expert advice. Her responses were prompt, professional and beneficial. Jo has a friendly, patient and helpful manner and this allowed us to feel at ease and trust her wholly in solving the situation we found ourselves in. Without her support and guidance, We would not be in the positive position we are in today. We will forever be thankful for Jo�s attention and time. We highly recommend Jo Walia at Van Eaton solicitors. Jo exceeded our expectations and we always felt as though she was always had our best interest at the core of her advice.

Excellent legal advice
A contract dispute with a business partner, if not handled delicately, could have been disastrous. Jo not only delivered excellent legal advice - her calm professionalism significantly reduced the tension during negotiations. I hope I never need legal help again but if I do, Jo will be my only call.

Successful outcome
As a shop owner, I had a commercial property dispute which, if unresolved, would have cost me my business. Ms. Walia of Van Eaton Solicitors represented me in an extremely professional manner and successfully resolved my dispute with the property owner. I needed a successful outcome for the sake of my livelihood. Ms. Walia delivered. I highly recommend her.
