I can’t recommend Iona highly enough. As a client based overseas, I was concerned about managing legal matters from afar, but Iona made the entire process seamless. She was fantastic—always timely, efficient, and clear in her communication. Iona provided exactly what we needed for our case and did so with professionalism and care. Her support gave me great confidence at every stage. I’m truly grateful for her expertise and would not hesitate to engage her again.

I saw Nina for initial advice regarding a home that I own in joint tenancy with someone from whom I am now estranged. She answered all of my questions and was professional but personable, knowledgeable, and clear about my options, helping me to understand how spotty UK law is around this topic. Nina also wrote up a summary of what we discussed and her suggestions for further steps, which I was not expecting but was very glad to receive after our meeting. I feel quite fortunate that my first experience with a solicitor in the UK was with Nina.
