Vanessa Wiggins is in a class of her own; an exceptionally knowledgeable and gifted lawyer who goes the extra mile for her clients. Fast-thinking and exceptionally resourceful, providing the very best outcomes. Nasteha Jama also at Bark & Co is also an excellent, most helpful advisor, never too busy to assist. Thank you for your clear advice and positive results. You will now be my first port of call should I ever need legal advice.

My brother was charged with joint enterprise including 6 other people. Vanessa. Wiggins was contacted in 2023 regarding this case and from the onset my family and I knew we had made the right decision. Vanessa made sure we had updates regarding every inch of the case and made sure all are concerns and questions were addressed. Vanessa alongside what I could call two of the most amazing barristers (R.kherbane and L.Walker) worked incredibly hard and meticulously to make sure every stone was unturned. They gave us hope when unconsciously I had lost hope. Words cannot describe the incredible work Vanessa Wiggins does. She truly cares for her clients and treats them with the upmost respect. Thank you soo much Vanessa Wiggins

“Highly professional and genuinely understanding solicitor” I instructed Trishna Kerai regarding a case involving possession with intent to supply Class B and possession of Class A. From the very first meeting, she was genuine, understanding, and made me feel listened to without any judgment. Her professionalism and clear advice gave me confidence throughout a very stressful time. Thanks to her expertise, we achieved a great result, and I’m truly grateful for her support. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone needing skilled and compassionate legal representation.

Bark & Co was the perfect choice for me

I hired the services of Mr. Ditesh Patel from Bark & Co, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. He went above and beyond in helping me with a decade-old legal case that was on the verge of moving forward. His expertise and diligence were instrumental in resolving the case ahead of charges being brought, which was a huge relief for me. Throughout the entire process, he was not only incredibly helpful but also highly communicative, keeping me informed every step of the way. What truly set Mr. Patel apart, however, was his affordability. He worked with me to ensure that his services were within my budget, without compromising on quality. His dedication to his clients is evident, and I felt genuinely supported throughout the entire ordeal. If you need a solicitor who is both knowledgeable and compassionate, I highly recommend Mr. Ditesh Patel and Bark & Co. He made a difficult situation much easier to navigate, and I am deeply grateful for his hard work and professionalism.

To honour and to thank you Magdalena Motyl, the greatest solicitor I ever met, for your precious service and support during my difficult time. The whole world should know about the fact that you are an incredible human being and without you I would never keep my freedom. Thank you for protecting me and providing me with the best defence possible, the best barrister Laura Herbert represented me before the court in London, very intelligent person and very knowledgeable about the legal process. Thank you for recommending me Pawel Kozak the best and extraordinary man, lawyer, attorney from Poland, wonderful gentleman, and precious friend who won my case in the courts in Poland. You are all the angels sent to me during this very difficult period of my life. Thank you Kind Regards Jaroslaw Piotr Hofmeister

The gratitude I have towards Bark & Co, especially Stephanie is something I cannot express within this short review. Stephanie was more than my legal representative, she became my rock in such a challenging time in my life, over the span of 2 years. Her level of professionalism, attention detail and care towards my case showed me that she meant what she said when she stated "I am right here with you". The most powerful yet proven words put into material and physical action... despite having so many clients... she always had time for me! Stephanie poured hope and encouragement towards me, showed up for me and went above and beyond for me!...and from this, I can only pray for blessings and greatness to follow her, and they will! I write this "review" from the comfort of my home and the freedom physically and mentally knowing that Stephanie was an angel in disguise, sent to protect and fight for me for my freedom. Steph, continue to make a great impact on and for those who are vulnerable or have become vulnerable ... in a world where people are flawed and where mistakes can cost lives....Thank you for everything... and I feel blessed to be able to now call you my friend.

Called to speak to someone and instead was mistreated by the woman who answered the phone. Who then put me on a long hold and hung up on me. I called back and asked to speak to a manager and was refused. This is beyond unprofessional and I would avoid at all costs. The first impression is everything I need to know about this firm and the way it treats people. Sick!

(Translated by Google) I wholeheartedly recommend Bark & ​​Co Solicitors, and especially attorney Magdalena Motyl. My partner faced an extremely difficult and complex extradition case involving a four-year prison sentence in Poland. From the very beginning, Magdalena demonstrated tremendous professionalism, knowledge, commitment, and determination in fighting for the best possible outcome. Throughout the entire process, we were kept informed of every step of the process, and all legal issues were explained clearly and understandably. Thanks to her experience, strategic approach, and hard work, we achieved a result that seemed almost impossible – avoiding my partner's extradition. She is not only an outstanding lawyer specializing in extradition cases, but also an empathetic person who perfectly understands the stress and uncertainty that accompany such situations. During the most difficult moments, we could count on her support, patience, and complete commitment. We are extremely grateful to Magdalena Motyl and the entire Bark & ​​Co Solicitors team for their assistance and professional representation. If anyone needs an effective and trustworthy lawyer in extradition matters, I recommend this law firm without the slightest hesitation. (Original) Z całego serca polecam kancelarię Bark & Co Solicitors, a w szczególności panią mecenas Magdalenę Motyl. Mój partner stanął przed niezwykle trudną i skomplikowaną sprawą ekstradycyjną, dotyczącą wyroku 4 lat pozbawienia wolności w Polsce. Od samego początku pani Magdalena wykazała się ogromnym profesjonalizmem, wiedzą, zaangażowaniem oraz determinacją w walce o jak najlepszy wynik sprawy. Przez cały proces byliśmy na bieżąco informowani o każdym etapie postępowania, a wszelkie kwestie prawne były wyjaśniane w sposób jasny i zrozumiały. Dzięki jej doświadczeniu, strategicznemu podejściu oraz ciężkiej pracy udało się osiągnąć rezultat, który wydawał się niemal niemożliwy – uniknięcie ekstradycji mojego partnera. To nie tylko wybitny prawnik specjalizujący się w sprawach ekstradycyjnych, ale również osoba pełna empatii, która doskonale rozumie stres i niepewność towarzyszące takim sytuacjom. W najtrudniejszych momentach mogliśmy liczyć na jej wsparcie, cierpliwość i pełne zaangażowanie. Jesteśmy ogromnie wdzięczni pani Magdalenie Motyl oraz całemu zespołowi Bark & Co Solicitors za pomoc i profesjonalną reprezentację. Jeśli ktoś potrzebuje skutecznego i godnego zaufania prawnika w sprawach ekstradycyjnych, polecam tę kancelarię bez najmniejszego wahania.

When you instruct a solicitor in a matter of this nature, you are placing your future and wellbeing in their hands, and trust is absolutely essential. I can honestly say that Bark & Co exceeded all of my expectations. Throughout my case, I was able to reach my solicitor, Ria Kudrati, whenever I needed guidance. If she was unavailable, she always returned my calls promptly. Her responsiveness and clear communication helped keep my anxiety to a minimum during what was an incredibly stressful time. The entire team at Bark & Co were exceptional. They were proactive, professional, and attentive at every stage of the process. I always felt that my case was being handled with the utmost care and diligence. I would highly recommend Bark & Co to anyone in need of expert legal representation. In particular, I would like to place on record my appreciation for Ria Kudrati. She is outstanding—approachable, professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to achieving the best possible outcome for her clients. Thank you, Bark & Co.
