Quick and professional
We secured Watkins Solicitors to produce a PAP letter for judicial review. The service was prompt, professional and ensured the local authority made a more timey decision about my child's EHCP.

Yatin and his team at Watkins supported me with settling child arrangements, including attending court. He grasped the situation immediately offering sound advice and support when I was at a personal low. He was excellent at communicating with me and articulating my position to the other party. Yatin was always focused on my child and their needs / welfare, putting things in place to ensure they were safe. I can not speak highly enough him and his team.

“I am pleased to report on my experience with Watkins Solicitors, who represented us in a recent Legal Aid–assisted Judicial Review claim against the Local Authority. From the beginning their manner was professional and reflected a genuine dedication to our matter. Their specialist expertise in SEND and Legal Aid issues was particularly impressive. Both current and former members of the firm handled the case’s complexities with considerable skill and persuasively advanced every point, which sustained our confidence in the prospects for a positive outcome throughout the proceedings. Watkins also demonstrated exemplary communication, keeping us informed at each stage and responding promptly to our enquiries and concerns. On several occasions they contacted us or replied outside normal working hours, which evidenced their genuine concern for our situation and commitment to achieving the best possible result. Ultimately, their persistence helped secure a favourable resolution that we believe would not have been attainable otherwise. I have no hesitation in recommending Watkins to anyone seeking comparable legal representation against a Local Authority; they are effective advocates and professional to work with.” John M.

We would highly recommend Watkins solicitors as a business and also Louise. Thank you.

For me it was such an odd concept of not meeting your solicitor for somthing as big as a house purchase, but Morgan has made the whole process painfree. Has been quick to respond both by email and phone. Has given us great advice and resolved any concerns we had swifty. We couldnt have asked for a better experience as first time buyers.
