“We were referred to Daniel Stern to defend the business in a substantial international cross border dispute. He proved to be clever, tactically astute and provided very clear advice. As a result of his pro-active representation we settled a proposed claim against the business for only 23% of the sum claimed. We would certainly use him again and highly recommend him”

“I fell in love with my dream home but I later found out was on an unfair lease. I was under no illusion that the sale of this property was going to be a long and bumpy road. Fortunately, myself and the seller had started communicating. I engage the services of Jeffery Gilbert as my conveyancing solicitor. Jeffery Gilbert acted for me in a way that was above and beyond what could ever have been expected from a conveyancing solicitor. He understood that this was my dream home and my journey to get to this point was so important to him that he approached this with such compassion because he was working for a person not a sale. I think that’s what sets him apart from any other solicitor who I have dealt with. Jeffery saw the person, my dream and how much this meant to me and my family. When a solicitor understands the significance of what a house means, ie a home, there is a difference in their approach. I don’t know anybody who works the hours that this man works, I don’t know any solicitor who is as swift to respond to messages and phone calls and fights for his clients. Jeffery did not allow my overwhelming desire to own the property to compromise the legal process. Where I was desperate to cut corners, he insured every attention to detail was covered so that the sale went through. When we finally completed, the emotion and the relief was shared with Jeffery. But this is the thing that I found the most amusing-when I was talking with the seller, he said the next time he moves house, he is having Jeffery Gilbert as his conveyancing solicitor. Thank you Jeffery, for providing our dream home-five days before Christmas and making a very difficult sale, attainable.”

Litigation Solicitor
“I'm an estate agent, and I therefore deal with countless solicitors who are invariably below-par. What a breath of fresh air the team at Elite Law are! Sonia Balrai has just pushed through one of the most difficult transactions that I've been involved with for many years; without her tenacity, responsiveness, hard work and determination the chain would have certainly collapsed. If you're looking for a conveyancing solicitor, you should look no further; this team are at the top of their game.”

“Richard Nelson LLP amazingly took on my case at short notice. They were quick to respond, clear, highly professional and kind. I realy felt listened to. They did their absolute best for the outcome of my case. I am especially grateful to Marie Dancer who took on my case at a realy short notice, Victoria Rees who worked over and above normal office hours to ensure that my case was a thoroughly well-put together piece of work. The barrister Wendy Hewitt from 5 St Andrew’s Hill chambers is the best. She was very supportive, re-assuring and honest which helped me to be more confident when giving evidence. ”

“I contacted 41 solicitors with no great response at all. Telling them my story. I received a call back from Alpa. Alpa took on my case with already a heavy workload which included regular attendance to courts. Alpa straight away emailed the parties to understanding current positions and ways forward. Alpa supports was simply amazing from get go. Thank you so much Alpa from the moment you called me back till date. I look forward to your ongoing support to achieve the best possible outcome. Your experience and understanding gave me so much reassurance on what possibilities I face. Thank you”
