excellent service
I had a fantastic service. They were constant, supportive and very helpful. If I didn't understand anything, they would break things down for me. It was very professional and they knew what they were doing.

I had been involved in a lengthy family court matter ,that started in 2021 and ended 2026 . Duncan lewis have represented me from the start in this time i have been represented by 3 solictors and one i believe case worker who was very difficult and showed little interest in helping. The three solictors were absolutely amazing ending with safia khan who was understanding and patient. I am today in care of my daughter after a long 6 years and honestly i couldn’t of done it without the solictors at Duncan lewis If there is any dads out there struggling like i was then Duncan are a very good bet .

I cannot thank Lillie Stubbs enough for everything she did for me and my children during one of the most difficult periods of my life. My children had been placed in foster care after I experienced a serious mental health crisis. I was going through an extremely difficult time and felt completely overwhelmed, frightened and uncertain about what was going to happen to my family. From the beginning, Lillie treated me with compassion, patience and respect. She listened to me, took my concerns seriously and always made me feel that she genuinely cared about helping me and my children. She explained the legal process clearly and made sure I understood what was happening at every stage. Her communication was excellent. She kept me updated, responded to my questions and was there when I needed reassurance or clarification. I never felt like I was just another case number. Lillie was incredibly professional, knowledgeable and determined. She fought for my children and made sure my voice as their mother was heard. Her support and legal representation made such a huge difference during a time when I felt completely lost. Most importantly, Lillie is the reason I was able to get my children back. I will always be grateful to her for helping reunite me with my children and giving our family the opportunity to move forward together. I would wholeheartedly recommend Lillie to anyone going through difficult family proceedings. She is compassionate, professional, knowledgeable and genuinely cares about the families she represents. I sincerely wish her all the very best for the future and continued success in her career. She deserves every success, and I hope she continues to help many more families the way she helped mine. I will never forget the difference she made in our lives. Thank you, Lillie, for helping me get my family back. I will never forget what you did for me.

Premal Patel was my solicitor and he was extremely efficient, empathetic and supportive. Throughout my time working with him, he explained every step in a way I would understand and helped me feel braver and stronger when approaching court hearings. Very hardworking and great at communicating. Grateful to all his dedication to working my case.

I highly recommend Ms Claire Wells to anyone who needs professional, reliable legal support. She was incredibly hardworking, dedicated, and professional throughout my case. She always responded to my communications promptly and kept me informed at every stage, which gave me great reassurance during a difficult time. She is naturally very kind, understanding, and genuinely supportive. I am especially grateful for her efforts in applying for Legal Aid on my behalf to cover the legal costs of family law matters and for working so diligently to secure a positive outcome in my case. Thank you for your dedication, professionalism, and compassion. I truly appreciate everything you have done for my children and me, and would not hesitate to recommend your services to others. A big thank you also to Katie Livermore, who was incredibly supportive and helpful while Claire was on leave.
I was in family court for over a year, with Sophie Jensen as my appointed solicitor, she helped me and my son get the best and what was asked for from the courts. Gave great advice throughout the whole year not just when court was happening. Lovely friendly person, really helped with the stress levels of being a single mum going through court. I couldn’t imagine having done it without. Thankyou so much to the whole team that helped and massive respect and thankyou to Sophie Jensen. Would highly recommend the firm and Sophie herself

An incredible firm, I cannot recommend Duncan Lewis enough, in particular my solicitor Oluwatobi Akinwande went above and beyond for me, from the beginning she supported me through an incredibly difficult and also emotional time and had the patience to listen to me and my feelings, guiding me through everything and advising me on any problem we faced. Throughout the proceedings, I felt that my case was taken seriously and that Oluwatobi Akinwande genuinely cared about achieving the best possible outcome for the children and for myself. She was always a call a way. The case has come to an end with the best possible outcome. Thank you ever so much to Oluwatobi Akinwande and colleagues!!

Premal Patel has helped me for the last nearly 2 years with my case. I can hand on heart say I couldn’t have done it without him. I’ve been dragged through the mill over my children by my ex husband. Premal guided me through each step and I got everything I needed to protect my Children.
I would like to start with a huge thank you to Aleksandra Sawicka, who supported me throughout what was an extremely difficult family court case. From the beginning, Aleksandra took the time to listen and understand my circumstances, providing clear legal guidance and a wealth of knowledge that was instrumental in helping me navigate the complexities of the family court systems. She approached everything with professionalism and compassion, while ensuring that my concerns and, most importantly, my safety remained central throughout. I am also very grateful to the wider team of legal representatives and barristers involved in my case. Their combined expertise and dedication played an important role in helping me achieve the best and safest possible outcome. I would particularly recommend Aleksandra and the team to anyone facing a difficult family court case, especially cases involving domestic abuse or complex safeguarding concerns. Having the right legal support during such a challenging time can make an enormous difference, and I am extremely grateful for everything they did for me.

Ojashwi Sidharth, a reputable and experienced attorney at DUNCAN LEWIS SOLICITORS, handled my immigration case expertly. He was always willing to help, the communication was excellent, and he made me feel truly appreciated. His legal expertise and professionalism are admirable.
I telephoned on 12/10/2026 after being given their telephone number by Shelter. I spoke with a rude gentleman who couldn’t even pronounce my name correctly, lots of background noise, didn’t speak very good English and was very abrupt. Told him it was time limited and needed to speak with a solicitor about a possible judicial review. Gave my details and was told I would get a call back in 24/48 hours. Didn’t hear anything so rang again on 15/10/2026 and spoke with the same rude gentleman. Was told I would get a call back and that I didn’t understand, it was 24/48 working hours which is roughly 4/5 working days, not 24/48 hours! I again said it was urgent but this was dismissed and said I would get a call back. Didn’t hear anything again so I called today, 21/10/2026. A woman answered it this time same rude abrupt telephone manner with lots of background noise so you could barely hear anything, not very good English and could not pronounce my name. I explained that I’d called on 12/10/2026 but hadn’t heard anything and it was urgent that I spoke with a solicitor please. She replied by telling me that they had no availability now. No apology no nothing end of conversation. Absolutely rude! I said thank you for wasting my time and put the phone down. I would not use these solicitors at all total rude!!
I am very grateful to my caseworker, Sai Subbaraj Maganti, for the way he handled my SLM claim. His communication was excellent. He responded to my emails straight away, was easy to reach by phone and always kept me updated. He completed everything on time and submitted all my documents to the Home Office, including the changes we made during our meeting. He also sent me copies for my own records. Sai was professional, patient and understanding, and his support gave me confidence and peace of mind. I felt truly looked after throughout the whole process. Thank you, Sai, and thank you to the team at Duncan Lewis Solicitors. I would definitely recommend your services.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my solicitor, Ms Hema Yaramachu, for all the support, care and professionalism she has shown me throughout my case. She handled my case with great professionalism, followed every stage carefully, and supported me whenever I needed help. I am genuinely very happy with her work, and words cannot express how grateful I am for all her efforts, patience and understanding. She is a dedicated solicitor who takes her work seriously and truly cares about her clients. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a professional, supportive and trustworthy solicitor. Thank you so much, Hema, for everything you have done for me. I wish you continued success in your career. 🙏
Had a terrible experience and I'm not one to quickly write negative reviews. My only correspondence with Harriet Philips was by email and after being recommended through positive word of mouth by a duty solicitor, I thought I would give it try. My query was neglected after two months waiting for a legal aid application only to be told weeks before my hearing that I had to send all information again. Furthermore, information was being requested unnecessarily from my bank to specify certain dates. As my bank only allows statements up to a certain date, I could not provide the requested information. If the solicitor told me sooner, I would have had more time to resolve. Now I'm left without representation. I understand others may have had a good experience due to the number rewards, but this definitely does not include my case.
Exceptional Legal Service and the Highest Standards of Professionalism I would like to commend Shashank kumar for the outstanding professionalism, legal expertise, dedication, and exceptional attention to detail they demonstrated in handling my case. From the very beginning, I felt I was in safe and capable hands. My solicitor handled my case with remarkable competence and genuine care, giving me a sense of security, reassurance, and confidence throughout the entire process. Communication was excellent, with prompt responses to calls and emails and consistent guidance and support whenever needed. Their professionalism, legal knowledge, and dedication exceeded all my expectations. I am extremely grateful for everything they have done for me. My experience with them is an excellent example of outstanding legal services and genuine client care. I wholeheartedly recommend this firm to anyone seeking first-class legal expertise and exceptional professional service. Dylan omar
I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Duncan Lewis Solicitors, especially Hajra Fathima, for all her help and support with my case.

I had a very positive experience with Duncan Lewis Solicitors during my asylum case. I would especially like to thank my solicitor, Sanjana Jawahar Masirkar, for her kindness, professionalism, and supportive attitude throughout the process. She was very kind, understanding, and approachable, and I always appreciated her positive attitude and the way she treated me with respect and care. Going through an asylum process can be a very difficult and stressful experience, so having a solicitor who is kind, patient, and supportive means a lot. I am truly grateful for the support and service I received from Sanjana and Duncan Lewis Solicitors. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a professional and compassionate legal team. Thank you, Sanjana, for your kindness and support. I really appreciate everything you have done for me and wish you all the best for the future. ❤️
