Ajantha Brabaharan

Tagged solicitor Ajantha Brabaharan

Ajantha handled my FLR(M) application as an unmarried partner, and from the moment she took it on she went through everything with me point by point. Nothing was assumed and nothing was left for me to guess at. Every time I contacted her she came back quickly, and the answers were never generic. I have dealt with a lot of lawyers in the US and in Korea over the years, and what stood out here was that she responded to my actual situation rather than reciting the rules back at me. When something was unclear she told me what it meant for me specifically. There were several points where the online system threw errors, and more than a few where the problem was simply my own mistake. I know I made her job harder than it needed to be. She never once let it show. She stayed calm, told me what to do next, and made sure I did not panic about any of it. On more than one occasion she was still helping me well outside office hours. When the decision came through she let me know straight away, before anyone else, and she sounded as pleased about it as I was. That is not something I expected from a solicitor, and after months of waiting it meant a great deal. English is not my first language and immigration rules are hard to follow even in plain English. Ajantha made the whole thing manageable. I will be applying for an extension in a few years and I would not consider going to anyone else. Sincere thank you for everything, Ajantha.

Upon meeting Graham Twist my solicitor I was impressed with his knowledge and the time he took to listen to my concerns. He was very approachable and understanding. The issues around pensions which can be complex was explained at length allowing an informed decision to be made.

Andrea Bell

Tagged solicitor Andrea Bell

I instructed Hansells for the creation of a health and wealth POA for myself as they are the custodians of my Will. The person dealing with my POA was Andrea Bell who on my arrival put me at ease and was very approachable. During the process of filling in the forms I made a couple of mistakes and again Andrea corrected these for me which made the whole experience less stressful. In my opinion Andrea made an exceptional job of my POA.

Tagged solicitors Claire Sargant and Karen Moores

I engaged Karen Moore for divorce proceedings on the recommendation of a friend. I was so pleased I did. Karen was honest forthright and clear. She was totally professional and kept me up to date with everything. I felt she always had my best interest at heart. Although an expensive process she was worth every penny. She was very up front about cost expectation and process. I would have no hesitation it recommending her services. Her supporting team also deserves praise . Thank you for your support during what was a very difficult time.
