Shuhena Khanam- Sternberg Reed

Shuhena Khanam from Sternberg Reed is amazing. She dealt with my family law case (Contact arrangements and Non Molestation orders) for over 3 and half years. She is very professional, her advice was always very clear and kept me informed at every stage. She was also very experienced in her field. Highly recommend!!

Excellent Service

The service we received from Jo & Emma was first class, from the first correspondence to the moving date, they were on the case, dotting every I & crossing every T.
Moving can be stressful and our move had a few ups & downs down the chain, but this didn’t alter their work pace, they were prompt, professional & attention to detail was spot on, they kept us up to speed with everything we needed to know & got the job done efficiently.
Highly recommend.
5 Stars from us.

Wills

We were a bit worried about how to go about making sure our son would benefit fully from our estate once we have passed. Made an appointment with Sternberg Reed to clarify and possibly rectify those concerns. Lauren the Solicitor gave pretty clear and constructive advice regarding our issues. From her advice and recommendations all issues and concerns have now been resolved. Would highly recommend this firm.

I used Sternberg Reed for conveyancing - I had a difficult experience working with the seller and the sellers solicitor, their communication was poor and I encountered numerous issues.

Raj Sharma and Vicki were a pleasure to work with. Raj gave us expert advice and helped us secure our purchase.
Thank you to Raj and Team!

I had the pleasure of dealing with Richard Cooper since 2014 in a complex case. Richard was professional throughout and represented me exceptionally well from day one. I would not hesitate to use his services again if required and cannot recommend him or Sternberg Reed enough.

Richard Cooper the assigned solicitor for my partner’s case, got us a better outcome than we’d endeavoured. Although the case was finalised, I had a lot of questions
following this, which Mr Cooper was always at hand to answer

He’s been immensely supportive and professional, he never once made me feel that I’m bothering him. He works transparently with no sugar on top
