Philip Kouvaritakis

Tagged solicitor Philip Kouvaritakis

Philip’s support for our son during a distressing time was exceptional. His advice was clear, knowledgeable and shared without jargon. He was empathetic, listened without judgement and demonstrated flexibility around our availability. In court he was excellently prepared, confident and clearly well-known and liked among court staff in Reading Magistrates Court. The outcome secured for our son was the best we could have hoped for. His sound advice also led to him negotiatiating an out of court settlement for a more serious offence. We would instruct Philip again without hesitation.

I cannot fault the service I was given by everyone at this firm. I was totally confident in their abilities and was exposed to just how bad other solicitors were so I had a solid comparison.
