Cant thank enough for supporting all the way

Sharad Buddhdev is an outstanding solicitor who provided exceptional support during a very dark and challenging time. POCA proceedings are complex and terrifying, but Sharad was always there to offer clear advice and reassurance. He took the time to explain every stage of the legal process in plain language, keeping me informed and grounded throughout. He is not only a brilliant legal mind but also a genuinely kind and empathetic person who truly cares about his clients' well-being. I am immensely grateful for his dedication and hard work. I highly recommend him to anyone needing a top-tier criminal defence and POCA specialist.

Outstanding legal representation at a very difficult time.

In a difficult legal case where the outcome was far from certain, I chose to move my representation to Cartwright King after losing confidence in my previous advocates. The support I received from Leanne Brown at Cartwright King was so much better than I expected. Leanne pulled out all the stops, kept me up to date, and jumped on any case concerns I raised with vigour. Thanks to Leanne and the excellent Barrister chosen to represent me the case was knocked out of the park, so-to-speak. A big win!

I can't recommend Cartwright King Solicitors highly enough. They have helped me with my case not just once, but twice, and both times the service was outstanding. A special thank you to Sharad Buddhdev for all of his support and professionalism throughout. He was always helpful, took the time to explain everything clearly, and kept me updated every step of the way. I always knew what was happening with my case, which gave me great peace of mind. The whole team at Cartwright King were approachable, understanding, and genuinely cared about achieving the best possible outcome. Their communication was excellent from start to finish, and I felt supported throughout the entire process. Thank you again to Sharad Buddhdev and everyone at Cartwright King for all your hard work. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend your services to anyone who needs a reliable and professional solicitor.

Thank you Sonia

I would just like to provide a heartfelt thank you to Sonia for her absolutely top notch work on what proved to be a very complex family court case. After 20 months in proceedings they have today concluded in the best outcome possible for my family. When Sonia took over my case I was immediately reassured by her prompt, responsive communication and her care and attention to detail. Feeling heard and validated was very important to me and it felt like there was no question too silly to ask and She was able to provide reassurance in the lead up to final hearing. Sonia handled communication which became challenging with complete professionalism while also creating a firm boundary. I received clear advice and felt like I could ask for explanations of decisions that I struggled to take on board on hearing days. Her knowledge of my case, together with the work put in to prepare for the final hearing meant I walked out of a difficult day knowing the children are safe and we can start to rebuild our lives. I cannot thank you enough.

Outstanding

I instructed Cartwright King in relation to a compliance issue and Wesley was dealing with the matter. At all times he kept me informed and due to vast experience on knowledge made the journey easy. Wesley got the decision I needed and is worth instructing an experienced solicitor. I would highly recommend Welsey and I have already referred to other friends and they reiterated the above. Once again thank you so much for your help and support.

A truly professional and compassionate approach. We would like to express our sincere appreciation to Cyrus for his kindness, professionalism, and willingness to help us during a very difficult and stressful time for our family. From our first contact, he has been approachable, patient, and clear in his explanations, which helped ease our worries and made us feel listened to and treated with respect. We are particularly grateful for the human side of his approach, his understanding, and the reassurance he gave us during this challenging period. Thank you, Cyrus, for your time and consideration. It means a lot to us. Raúl and Juan , Granada / Spain
