    They are on your side

    From start to finish with the sale of my old house and the purchase of my new home, Tanya was calm and clear in her communication with me. This stopped me from getting stressed. She heard all my instructions and let me know what to do and when. This made the process very smooth as it is too easy to barrage the team when there are periods when it seems as if nothing is happening. House selling and buying will take several months to complete and there are periods when the team gets on with the work and we don't have to. Tanya was professional and light and protected me when other party's were quite impatient and obviously only concerned about themselves and their commission! I would heartily recommend Manak. They will look after you. Thank you Tanya and the team.

    from Manak Solicitors

    Thank you so much for this fantastic and highly detailed review! Moving home is famously one of life's most stressful events, so hearing that Tanya’s calm, clear communication kept you completely grounded and stress-free means a great deal to us. You’ve perfectly highlighted one of the trickiest parts of any property transaction, those quiet periods where a lot of heavy lifting is happening behind the scenes. We are so glad Tanya kept you perfectly paced so you always knew what to do and when. Protecting your best interests and shielding you from the impatient, commission-driven pressures of other parties is exactly what a great legal team should do. Congratulations on your move, and we wish you every happiness in your new home!

    Brilliant experience with the Manak team

    We had a truly seamless experience with Manak Solicitors during the purchase of our house. They were attentive, responsive, helpful and incredibly professional throughout the process, which is not something you hear often during the property purchase experience! We cannot thank Duygu and Arjan enough for their service. Duygu was especially prompt and helpful, always one step ahead and helped us complete in a very impressive time frame. Thank you all!

    We had the pleasure of using Arjan, Duygu and Indervir at the Sevenoaks office for our house sale and purchase. I have no doubt that our sale would have fallen apart if it wasn’t for the knowledge and professionalism of both Arjan and Duygu. We had some major bumps in the road due to poor solicitors on the buyers side, but they continued to chase and ultimately we managed bring the sale to a successful close. Both were contactable and replied to emails very quickly, always putting us at ease through what was a stressful few months. Huge thank you to the team! If we ever decide to move again then we wouldn’t need to think twice about using Manaks. Highly recommend!

      All I needed was an affidavit witnessing, instead what I got was above-and-beyond service and exemplary client care.

      I would like to sincerely thank Holly and all of her team, including Kerry and Sunita on reception, for everything they have done for me this past month. When unforeseen issues arose regarding my document’s legalisation process (after the services at Manak had concluded), I required further help from Holly to sort the matter ASAP. If it were not for the urgent action of the whole team, I would not have resolved this in time - they treated my problem as their own, all off of their own backs, and for that I am extremely grateful. I could not recommend them high enough; if you need a legal matter resolved, entrust it with these people.

      I recently visited Manak Solicitors for my deed poll, which was signed by Adella Thomas, and I honestly could not be happier with the service I received. From the moment I arrived, the receptionists were incredibly warm and welcoming, and the whole team made me feel truly seen, heard, and supported throughout the process. Everyone was so genuine, professional, and compassionate, which made a huge difference to me personally. I really appreciated how much they genuinely wanted to help and ensure everything was handled smoothly. Their kindness, professionalism, and exceptional service made what could have been a stressful experience feel comfortable and reassuring. Thank you so much to Adella Thomas and the entire team at Manak Solicitors — I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for supportive, professional, and genuinely caring legal services.

      I cannot thank Adella Thomas, Baldip, and the whole team at Manak Solicitors enough for everything they have done for me over the last 5 years. Family proceedings are emotionally exhausting and at times overwhelming, and there were many moments where I felt stressed, anxious and unsure about what the future would look like. Throughout it all, Adella showed professionalism, patience, compassion and incredible dedication. What impressed me most was that I never felt like just another client. Adella always took the time to explain things clearly, guide me through difficult decisions and support me during some of the hardest periods of my life. She consistently went above and beyond and exceeded my expectations. I would also like to thank Baldip, who represented me as my barrister. His professionalism, preparation and guidance throughout the proceedings gave me confidence during a very stressful process. Having strong representation at such an important stage made a real difference and I truly appreciated his support and commitment. No matter how complex or stressful matters became, I always felt that the team genuinely cared and wanted the best possible outcome for me and my family. Their hard work, attention to detail and commitment never went unnoticed. I’m truly grateful not only to Adella and Baldip, but to the wider team at Manak Solicitors for standing by me through a very long journey and helping me reach the finish line. I would wholeheartedly recommend Adella Thomas, Baldip, and Manak Solicitors to anyone needing legal support. Thank you all for everything
