The type of experience you need on your side

This firm stood out due to their advertised years of experience in dealing with employment matters and that counted for a lot with the situation for which I needed their help. They were sympathetic but also able to pick out the key facts and points of leverage within the scenario I had and that enabled them to go above and beyond the role I needed them for to achieve both a fairer outcome and a certain degree of closure. They were clear on the information and decisions they needed from me and managed to keep a potentially volatile situation under control. Would recommend them.

VALOR HACKERS WILL RECOVER YOUR FUNDS

At a point I thought I was going crazy because I started having sleepless nights, I’d be up for days .I never saw it coming , it was a carefully orchestrated crime and till date the world still fall a victim to these investment scams in full wave now. i came across a binary investment page on instagram and my the reviews and testimonial on this page about the wonderful investment scheme they’ve set up plus the thousands of followers on there. I thought to myself why don’t you give this a try and see what happens, till date I still wish I didn’t make that call. I contacted the company about my interest in investing with the company , I was assigned to a broker who walked me through the company policy and their investment insurance policy. I really fell for it all, I got an account set up by a broker assigned to me which I funded with $10,000 at the time to have a full experience of their trading system. My first few trades were awesome with swift access and withdrawal plus high returns and limited risk, I became greedy and wanted it all by investing over 500,000USD . My I was milking these tricksters and by month end around the time I found out about their illegitimacy I was going to deposit ONE MILLION USD , thank for the keen eyes of my son who saw through their fake websites followed by contacting the CFTC that confirmed it to us that this is a fake I ceased all contact with these tricksters and channeled all my energy into finding a solution , with my sons help I found “VALOR HACK” a team of hackers focused on solving the hiccups in today’s internet. “VALOR HACK“ is a team I will confidently recommend to anyone looking to recover his/her lost investment , VALOR HACK RECOVERY TEAM will do it with ease. I can proudly say that VALOR HACK RECOVERED ALL I INVESTED. valorhaq @ g m a I l dot com . Telegram: ValorhaqHQ

New Build Purchase

Marcus and team were brilliant throughout the entire process. Even before instructing Marcus he was able to answer multiple questions that I had and immediately made me feel comfortable. He was very responsive, always willing to help and definitely went above and beyond in my case - and that’s hard to come by with solicitors nowadays! If he wasn’t available, Lauren was on hand to answer any questions and keep us updated. Wouldn’t think twice in using Marcus and team again.

Knowledge and guidance

Paul's knowledge and guidance around my divorce was handled in the precise manor that I was looking for. Paul's advice was honest and balanced and left me with a good undertsanding of the options open to me. Paul's nature and personality were exactly what I was looking for and I am very happy with the process and outcome that Paul guided me to.

Extremely kind

Andrea Kershaw was extremely kind and thoughtful, explained everything in simple language that I could understand. She was very patient and thoughtful. I’m extremely grateful to her. I’ve been using this firm of solicitors since 1968, but as one gets older things get more complicated and you need someone to appreciate this and be patient.

Amit Bhangham is our go to solicitor. Highly responsive, works with us and our client to ensure that our client is protected and is able to close a transaction in a remarkably fast manner, a lot more efficiently than the current industry standard, and that often means life or death to a property transaction so his expertise and commitment are next to none and invaluable.

I had an excellent experience with this company on a house sale. I was lucky enough to get Claudia and Mel acting for me and they managed to balance being extremely professional and efficient with being totally human and user friendly. Couldn't have asked for more, thanks to both of them.

Steer clear of this law firm. My experience with Stuart Ruff started off promisingly, only for us to overshoot the initial estimate by 3x, with charges accrued for every minuscule communication effort. Despite requesting an end to this, it continued.

Numerous typographical errors were evident in their documents, including incorrect agreement dates and participant names.

Complicating matters further, I started receiving bills from Kimberley Deane and Jennifer Scoates, whom I hadn't been previously introduced to. The bills were unclear and their accompanying letters quickly turned aggressive, despite a prior agreement of a one-time payment. Their comments, such as threats of court proceedings if payment wasn't received within 14 days, were unsettling. Here is an example: “Unless payment is received within 14 days from the date of this letter, the debt will be passed to our Debt Collection Department who may issue court proceedings for recovery of the sum due without further notice.”.

I compiled and made the payments, but these unexpected invoices continued to arrive. The firm's departments seemed disconnected with poor internal communication and an aggressive attitude towards paying clients.

Their current rating doesn't reflect my experience. I would strongly advise anyone considering their services to think twice. My hope is that their rating will change to prevent others from enduring similar frustrations.

Absolutely brilliant service, couldn’t ask for a better team to help me as a first time buyer for my flat. Marcus is amazing, replies so quickly and is thorough, professional and very down to earth. Explains things to make them easy to understand and great service from the whole team especially Lauren and Marcus.
