Thorough and professional

Sara took time to create a bespoke set of documents for a niche consulting practice. She took time to go through the documents in detail, explaining the legal implications and made all requested amendments to suit my needs.

Excellent Service

I had the pleasure of working with Sara on finalizing the Shareholder Agreement between myself and my business partners, and I can confidently say that she exceeded all expectations.

From the outset, Sara demonstrated exceptional professionalism, attention to detail, and a deep understanding of shareholder agreements. She made sure that my interests were well-represented while also ensuring that the terms were clear, fair, and legally sound for all parties involved.

Her communication was always prompt, clear, and concise, making it easy for me to follow along and understand the more complex aspects of the agreement. She took the time to explain each clause in detail and provided valuable insights, which made a significant difference in the overall process.

Sara was incredibly responsive and managed the entire process smoothly, from negotiating terms to addressing our questions and concerns. She showed a great deal of patience and empathy, which made working with her a true pleasure. Thanks to her expertise and dedication, the agreement was finalized efficiently and effectively, and I felt confident in the result.

I highly recommend Sara for anyone seeking a skilled, reliable, and professional solicitor. Her outstanding service and ability to manage complex negotiations with ease make her a top choice in the field.

Mr Seerat Ali - Hands Down A 100% Recommend For Spouse Visa Cases!

Mr Seerat Ali from Adam Bernard Solicitors is knowledgeable and gives straight advice.

My son who is a British Pakistani National got married to a Pakistani National living in China. We could not register the marriage in China, but there was one option of getting the marriage ceremony conducted via zoom in Pakistan, and getting the marriage registered by the witnesses in Pakistan by providing them letters authority to sign on the bride and grooms behalf and to register on their behalf in Pakistan.

We spoke with many solicitors who advised us different things, about whether the marriage would be legal or not, and most all of them just didn't know and gave us conflicting advice, including that the marriage must take place in Pakistan, that zoom marriage was not allowed, that spouse visa was out of question and we should invite on fiancee visa first and then pay them again for spouse visa.

Needless to say were very confused as what was best course of action to take after speaking with over 15 solicitor firms in the Greater Manchester and north west region, who all advised something different, and none sounded sure about their own advice.

Finally we tried Adam Bernard a London firm when we were in Manchester and we spoke with Mr Ali. He gave us categorical directions as to what would constitute a marriage and advice that we could follow to ensure we were not jeopardising chances of calling my sons wife-to-be on a spouse Visa after the Nikah Ceremony and not on a fiancee visa as most everyone else had advised. Following that free advice (as we had not instructed Mr Ali at that time) we proceeded to China and my son and his fiancee got married. We all celebrated the marriage and returned to the UK. Once back in UK we approached a firm ranking number 1 in the country for immigration on this platform as they were Manchester based to proceed with the case. They first took the case but ahead of accepting payment, they refused to take it on as they felt it was high risk of being denied. They consulted their Barrister and told me he felt the same. I then approached Mr Ali again on whose advice we had gone to China and proceeded. Just under 2 months later my daughter-in-law has her spouse Visa. Thank you Mr Ali. You gave clarity when advice was foggy. You shone light where all seemed dark. You gave hope where others dampened it. You held belief in your knowledge when others doubted their own. I highly highly highly recommend you to all and everyone who reads this.

Resolved Settlement Agreement with Sima Patel

My query was picked up by Sima Patel. Her competence was felt. She immediately got the process underway and delivered for me a positive outcome within a very tight deadline. Her assurances , approachable nature, transparent and clear communication meant that we worked collaboratively and as a result achieved a focused goal. I knew I was in good hands on my first call with Sima. It was clear she was on my side!!!

Motor offences

I was extremely scared regarding my traffic offences and was told I am facing a ban and will lose my license. I came to Adam Bernard for legal advice regarding my motor offences. My case was handled by Mr. Wahab and Mr. Ray perfectly and very professionally. Wahab’s legal advice was flawless and Mr. Ray executed it so well in court. I did not get any ban and still have my license. I am very thankful and would highly recommend this firm. Definitely a happy and satisfied client.
