Sharon Lyon

Tagged solicitor Sharon Lyon

I was terrified of having to go through the legal process of resolving my matter, but Sharon and the team made it so simple and stress free. I had met with several solicitors before, but they had made me feel the issue was too complex or had wanted vast quantities of paperwork before they would even give me a breakdown of the process. From my first conversation with Sharon I knew I was in the right hands, she listened and broke everything down at our first meeting, so I knew what was ahead of me. Both Sharon and her assistant Tracey were always quick to respond to questions, and I never felt out of control, overwhelmed or that I was asking silly questions. My case is now complete and a 15 year nightmare is now at an end. I cannot thank them enough for their time and support and would highly recommend them.

As a lawyer practising in Spain, I contacted on behalf of a client who required a power of attorney for use in Spain. Carolina responded immediately to our request and handled the matter with great professionalism and efficiency. We received a scanned copy of the executed power of attorney in a remarkably short time. An excellent and highly responsive service, which I would be pleased to recommend.

Thanks once again for your legal advice, time, and effort. Your courtesy and professionalism was outstanding and we would highly recommend Rachael Heale and the rest of the law firm.
