Residential Possession Case

David Smith and his team acted for clients of mine on a difficult residential possession case . As a retired real estate lawyer I can easily judge the standard of service. Their advice , both legal and commercial, was impeccable throughout , and this resulted in a successful outcome.

House sale

Sophie is simply the best. From start to finish of my sale she was professional, courteous and it was good to have her at my back. She worked long hours to ensure SDLT deadlines were met but she was calm and measured throughout.
I highly recommend Sophie Maryan of JMW Solicitors

Global Talent Visa | Application to the Arts Council England

Loretta took on my case for my Global Talent visa application and I am incredibly pleased with her services. I am a musical theatre actress and singer. My application was accepted very quickly by the Arts Council England and I can assume my application benefited from her positive reputation. I couldn't be more impressed with how everything went. I would definitely recommend her services.

She was very accommodating and was always looking out for my best interest. She is an incredibly hard worker and even with the uncertainty of COVID-19, everything she did was completed very quickly. From the initial meeting to the end of the application process, I knew my application was in good hands.

I would like to thank her for everything she had done for me. I am incredibly grateful and I wish her the best

Great

I came in contact with Loretta Weber-Pang regarding my visa application to the United Kingdom under the Global Talent category. I am more than satisfied with the professionalism of Ms Weber-Pang and her law firm. She not only supervised the application, but also excellently arranged my application data to have the maximum impact. Her expertise and meticulousness, as well as, experience in handling my visa application, was clearly reflected in her execution and completion of my application. Besides everything, the most commendable aspect was her availability. Ms Weber-Pang regularly communicated with me and answered my queries even during her vacation, for which I remain extremely grateful.

Within less than a month, I was informed by Ms Weber-Pang about the success of my application. She has also helped me with the second round of visa application, where I have successfully received my visa from the Home Office.
