Fiona McAnaw

Tagged solicitor Fiona McAnaw

We are so grateful to Fiona and her team for all their hard work over the past two years. She represented us in a complex case at the High Court and managed to win a result exceeding our expectations. From the start, Fiona was brilliant. She explained everything clearly, kept us updated and was always honest and straightforward about what to expect. Her attention to detail and ability to stay ahead was incredible. What stood out was Fiona’s determination. She worked tirelessly, making sure every angle of the case was covered. When it came to courtroom prep, her skills in managing her team were second to none – calm, confident, and sharp. You wouldn’t want to face Fiona as your opponent; she’s that good! We can’t thank her enough for the amazing result she achieved for us. If you need a highly skilled solicitor who genuinely cares about her clients, Fiona is the one to call, gosh help anyone who comes up against her!

Anwar Zeb KhattakAsfandyar MahmoodIslam KhanMohammed Aslam Zeb Khattak

Tagged solicitors Anwar Zeb Khattak, Asfandyar Mahmood, Islam Khan and Mohammed Aslam Zeb Khattak

These Solicitors were recommended to me through My Estate Agent, Property People. I blindly accepted there service as they came through an honest and trustworthy source and I wasn’t wrong at all. I received the most amazing service, which really was shocking. I’ve always noted Solicitors can be very narky with there tone but these guys were different. Amazingly professional, well mannered, not even an ounce of egoism, all for a small fee. I encountered a few hurdles whilst selling my house and the advise given was brilliant and clearly showed how much knowledge these guys have. They took the time to speak to me, explain in detail until I understood and was content. No one bothers with these kind of things, most people shove u off, they didn’t. There’s absolutely no need to go elsewhere when you have all in one! Wish them all the best!

George FaulknerGuy Morgan

Tagged solicitors George Faulkner and Guy Morgan

I cannot recommend Guy Morgan and George Faulkner highly enough for their surgical handling of my father’s property sale. When the buyer attempted a last minute ransom tactic to force a large price reduction at the eleventh hour, this team moved from standard conveyancing into elite litigation-grade defense. The property was sold at the price agreed at exchange and I have confidence that we have the best team on our side for any issues moving forwards.
