Raj is one of the most knowledgeable individuals on property related matters and an expert in his field.

Raj has helped me over many years and recently assisted in a highly complex conveyancing issue. There were multiple elements which all had to come together at the same time for the completion to take place. Once again, Raj was able to deliver an excellent service, in a timely fashion and on budget. One of the most knowledgeable individuals on property related matters and an expert in his field. Furthermore, his assistant Vicky was invaluable throughout the process and kept me updated at all times. Would recommend to anyone.

Made buying a flat going through a lease extension stress free.

I bought a flat that, alongside the buying process, was going through a lease extension and as a first time buyer, this was all alien to me. However, Joanne and her team (Nicola and Olivia) made everything so much easier for me. No matter what questions i had, simple or otherwise, i always got a reply very quickly with the answers i needed. They were also great at keeping me up to date with the latest news regarding the purchase and lease extension progress with frequent reports that laid out the information in an easy to read and understandable format. I can't fault anything really, they really are a great firm with great solicitors and would highly recommend them for conveyancing services.

Andrew Liddell recently acted for me in the sale of my house and purchase of a new property. As I had been in my old property for nearly fifty years this seemed rather daunting but the whole process was very clear and professional and I felt very reassured I was in safe hands. I have no hesitation in recommending Sternberg Reed and in particular Andrew Liddell. Susan Fyfe

Sternberg Reed LLP

Dear Susan, Thank you for your feedback, Susan. We are delighted to hear that Andrew Liddell provided clear, professional, and reassuring support throughout the sale and purchase, especially given the long tenure in your previous home. Your recommendation of Sternberg Reed and Andrew is greatly appreciated.

Dealt with Andrew Liddell to do our lease renewal and then to deal with property sale, nothing was to much trouble. He was speedy when replying to emails as well as returning calls.

Used them for conveyancing a few years ago when buying, but they forgot to register the lease. Caused massive delays when it came to selling and nearly caused the sale to fall through. They were dishonest as they contacted me at some point with no explanation why and wanted to sort out their admin work at my cost even after house purchase was sorted. It was because they messed up at the time but didn’t tell me the importance of sorting it out at their expense. I found out what happened as when selling new solicitor was on the ball but sternberg reed showed no interest in a speedy resolution as we needed to constantly chase them. As someone said, recommend them to your enemies. Didn’t take it to SRA as was too stressed at the time.

I recently used jay hussain to handle my case . Jay Hussain was incredibly professional, efficient, and kept me informed at every stage of the process. Legal matters can be incredibly stressful, but their clear guidance and prompt communication made everything straightforward and manageable. I would highly recommend jay Hussain to anyone looking for expert legal support.

As a family member our experience was extremely good. Preet Matharu acting as our solicitor, was very professional and prompt with dealing with matters that arose. Preet is very knowledgeable in law and used it to her very best capability. She is down to earth and very understanding and helpful.

We recommend Kelly To highly at Sternberg Reed for family law representation. Kelly is not only exceptionally thorough and professional, but she also genuinely cares about her clients. She kept us well-informed throughout the entire process and ensured we felt confident at every stage. Her advice was always clear, realistic, and practical. If you need a family solicitor who is responsive, approachable, and will work incredibly hard for you, look no further than Kelly

I honestly cannot recommend Kelly To at Sternberg Reed enough. From the very beginning of my family court case, Kelly was there to support me every step of the way. What was an incredibly stressful and emotional experience for me was made so much easier knowing I had someone so professional, knowledgeable and genuinely caring in my corner. One of the things that stood out to me most was how supportive Kelly was with my anxiety surrounding the case. She never made me feel like I was being difficult or asking too many questions. She always listened, reassured me when I needed it and took the time to explain things to me in a way that I could understand. That support meant more to me than I can really put into words. Her communication was also brilliant. I was always kept updated and never felt left wondering what was happening or what I needed to do next. Kelly was approachable, responsive and always made me feel that my concerns mattered. Throughout the whole process, Kelly was incredibly professional and thorough, but she also showed so much compassion and empathy. I never felt like I was simply another case. I felt listened to, understood and supported as a person and as a parent. Kelly worked incredibly hard for me and my case, and went above and beyond throughout, from the very beginning right through to the final hearing and beyond. I will always be grateful for the way she supported me through what was one of the most difficult periods I have experienced. If you are looking for a family solicitor who is not only extremely professional and knowledgeable but who genuinely cares about the people she represents, I would wholeheartedly recommend Kelly. Thank you so much, Kelly, for everything you have done for me and my children. I truly appreciate it.

Absolutely awful firm to deal with specifically kelly To, im a litigant in person in child arrangements, she has not followed the proceedural rules 2010, she has not followed the code of conduct set out by solicitor regulation authority, barrister kissing his teeth at me because i stood up for myself, another barrister suggesting he could cut contact with my child as the mum told me he suggested it to her probably to line their pockets with more hearings, the most recent barrister wrote an order that doesnt reflect what was agreed in the hearing or ordered by the judge on the day causing me to have no contact with my child going against a child arrangements order and reccomendations from social services, forced me to buy the transcript to correct the illegal sly move they made, good job i have a good understanding of the law and going to ask for an order against them for costs and potentially take them to court to sue for damages. Messed with the wrong litigant in person which i think they have recognised.
