Manak Solicitors

The case was fare advanced, single justice procedure notice was served but Samir was fantastic and settled the case out of court, with no conviction or criminal record on DBS. Thank you Samir and Manak Solicitors!!!

Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to leave this feedback. I am very pleased we were able to help and that your matter has been resolved. If you ever need any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us directly.

I was facing prosecution from TfL for pass misuse. Samir consulted me and helped me realise that I had mitigating circumstances that I did not even realise, and used this to draft up an amazing and thoroughly detailed response letter that ended up having me receive only a warning. This has been amazing for me as a criminal record will have been detrimental to my career. Thank you Samir!

Thank you so much for your kind words. I’m grateful for the trust you placed in me, and I’m pleased your TFL case was resolved with a warning. Every case turns on its own facts, and I’m glad we were able to present your mitigating circumstances clearly. I wish you all the very best for your career. If you ever need assistance again, please do get in touch.

Samir Moftah defended me against a train operating company which, in response to a period of fare evasion, treated every single journey I made for many years as an offence based only on the fact that tickets existed. Samir was professional and empathetic in his approach, helped me gather my evidence with the necessary structure and negotiated on my behalf. As a result he reduced the settlement demand from $12.2K to £1.3K, which was beyond what I could imagine even in a best case scenario. On top of that, the cost of his work was fixed and really affordable. Especially compared with other solicitors I reached out to, where it seemed that I would end up paying them more than the original demand was before they would even finish negotiating. Very highly recommended.

I intentionally avoided paying my fare on TfL. Not a tap mistake, not a technical glitch – I knew exactly what I was doing. Got caught, got reported, and received the dreaded prosecution letter. I fully expected a criminal record. Then I hired Manak Samir incredibly professional. He didn't judge me once – not a lecture, not a sigh. He just got to work. And he knows every single rule. The one thing you need to do is trust him - because he knows his stuff He's expensive but follow his guidance because it can be worth its. But here's what he pulled off: a formal warning. No fine. No criminal record. No settlement fee. Just a warning letter.

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

I’m writing this review because I too would appreciate an honest and raw review, and I want to help others. I was dealing with a TFL case which was incredibly stressful. I came across Samir; Manak Solicitors. Initially, I had seen good reviews but in hindsight, I was in such a vulnerable position that I didn’t want to dig further and I just wanted my case to be over with. Of course later on, when I did more digging around which I really recommend in doing, I found ALL the reviews very beneficial. I called Samir to book a consultation and it was a two minute call (I kid you not, literally two minutes; I had gone back to check because it felt so wrong). Samir on the call sounded very unbothered, not empathetic, and very cold. He told me that he’ll send me a link to pay him £200 for the consultation and that we will have a mental health approach… I also thought that was odd because it felt like he was reading off a script and most probably used that exact approach to many others. I paid the £200. Organised a date and time for the consultation. I specifically asked if I needed to bring/ do anything to prepare for the consultation and Samir had said no. When it came to the consultation, the whole thing felt rushed which was diabolical because I had paid him for my services. I felt like I was wasting Samir’s time. I felt like he was fed up. When I would ask questions, he looked as if he wanted me to leave the room. He just felt very agitated and annoyed I was there in the first place. Samir had asked me to go through my paperwork and highlight things. Because of his whole demeanour, (I have mentioned above) I felt under pressure and couldn’t concentrate. It annoyed me because I had asked him before if I needed to prepare anything beforehand and he said no. Had I have known to highlight things, I would’ve done that before and felt more prepared in the consultation… When I was taking notes, I felt like he was judging my note taking when mind you, considering my career and years of dedicating my life to education, I know very well how to take notes. Again, he was cold and I felt like I was just another number added to his client list. The action plan after the consultation was to gather mitigations to put forward to my case. I still felt off vibes and I just wasn’t confident that he would win my case. At this point, I still was doing research and hadn’t paid Samir further to have him represent me. Some time later, I felt like Samir was very unorganised and I didn’t feel like he even cared about my case at all. I was completely thrown off. I ended up not continuing with Samir and I am so thankful that I didn’t. I don’t recommend him at all.

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!

I had a fantastic experience with Mr Vijay Payerda and Abdul Nishat interpreter at Wimbledon Solicitors. From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive. He took the time to explain everything clearly and kept me informed at every stage, which really put my mind at ease. His attention to detail and dedication made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and straightforward. I couldn’t be happier with the service I received and would highly recommend Mr Vijay at Wimbledon Solicitors Tooting Branch to anyone looking for reliable and efficient legal support.
