Sophie Rayment was truly incredible. After months and months of no progress and things not going how I'd hope in court, Sophie took over and suddenly everything started to fall into place. She went above and beyond to make sure deadlines were met, that I understood everything that was happening and that my statements were the best possible representation of my position and circumstances. I went from having nothing I wanted to everything in one hearing and I attribute this to Sophie and the incredible barrister she instructed. I would choose Sophie above any other solicitor going forward. Her responses were timely and informative, she took time to respond to my questions, no matter how obscure, and the depth and breadth of her legal knowledge surpasses anything I had experienced previously. I could not say one bad thing about my experience with her. Thank you for everything!

My name is Michel, and this review is for the wonderful lawyer Meghana Vuttaradi. She handled my case with great care and a clear strategy. Everything was smooth and well-organized. Meghana made me feel heard, respected, and genuinely supported – never like just another client. Communication was flawless: fast email replies, prompt phone calls, and clear documents. Her service and availability were excellent. Even when she was busy, she always made time for me. She is highly professional, deeply knowledgeable, and explains complex legal matters in simple words. If you want a smart, kind, and dedicated lawyer – choose Meghana Vuttaradi. Thank you for everything!

My case was handled adequately. Most issues were addressed, although there were some delays and areas where I would have appreciated more support. The communication was satisfactory . Responses were usually received, but sometimes took longer than expected . My case worker was Sailaja Tadepalli .
I would like to sincerely thank Duncan Lewis Solicitors for the excellent service they provided in handling my case. My case was handled with great care and professionalism. I received clear and helpful guidance throughout the entire process, and all my questions were answered thoroughly and in a way that was easy to understand. My solicitor, Trishita Saha, was extremely professional, kind, and supportive. She provided excellent guidance in responding to my questions and always made sure I understood every step of my case. Her communication was clear, respectful, and very reassuring. Communication was excellent throughout, both by phone and email. I always received timely updates and felt fully informed about the progress of my case. Overall, the service was of a very high standard, and the team was always available whenever I needed assistance. Their legal knowledge and professionalism gave me confidence and peace of mind throughout the process. I am very grateful for their support and would highly recommend Duncan Lewis Solicitors to anyone in need of legal assistance.
I would like to thank Duncan Lewis Solicitors for the timely and professional help and support they provided to me while working on my case. All processes and procedures to start working together on my case were fast and not complicated. The company also took into account my need for an interpreter and throughout our work I was provided with a professional translator who greatly facilitated the course of the case. It is also worth noting that we were able to use the help of professional experts in different industries who cooperate with the company and provide the most accurate reports and expertise. I completed my case successfully thanks to the very talented lawyer Shrestha Banerjee. She immediately revealed the strengths and weaknesses in my case and we started working without delay. Her timely reaction to the slightest change in my case, constant control, collection of documents, professional approach and the time she generously devoted to my case helped me cope with it in 5 months, although it could have taken more than two years. I personally advise you to contact her for legal help because your problem matters to her and she will help solve it!
Dear So Vu Thank you for your review. We are glad to hear that Duncan Lewis made a difference to your experience and supported you through the process. Kind regards, Duncan Lewis Solicitors
I cannot express enough gratitude to Duncan Lewis Solicitors for their exceptional handling of my case. From the very beginning, I was met with a level of professionalism that is truly rare. I want to specifically highlight the incredible work of my caseworker, Srishti Shrivastava. Throughout a process that could have been incredibly stressful, Srishti made me feel hopeful and safe. It was clear from our first interaction that she had a 100% genuine interest in the success of my case. Her dedication didn't just feel like "legal assistance"—it felt like having a true advocate in my corner. The quality of communication was amazing; I was kept informed at every stage via prompt emails and phone calls, and I never had to wonder where my matter stood. The quality of service and availability was quite simply excellent. Srishti’s deep legal knowledge and professionalism are highly recommendable to anyone seeking legal representation. If you are looking for a firm that combines high-level legal expertise with genuine compassion and reliability, I wholeheartedly recommend Duncan Lewis and Srishti Shrivastava. Thank you for helping me navigate this with such care and success.
Dear Manga Thank you for your review. We are glad to hear that our team made a difference to your experience and supported you through the process. Kind regards, Duncan Lewis Solicitors

When I decided to apply for asylum, from the first consultation with Hina via the online meeting, Hina believed in my claim without requesting any type of evidence. She told me, "If you are unable to pay for the service, I am willing to support your application in full." For me, I informed her that I’m working online independently and I’ll be able to pay. Hina knew my case is complex and hard to prove my claims, so she guided and helped me. For several times, Hina was working during the weekdays and the weekends. She sent me emails after 1:00 AM in the morning, and finally, within two months since I applied for asylum, my application to the Home Office was accepted as a refugee without requesting any evidence or an applicant's asylum statement. I only did the first screening, then within one month, the Home Office emailed me with my first interview, and today I’m officially a resident.I didn’t use any public social media platforms to prove my claims; I just hired Hina. I always followed her advice and I never argued with her. I just asked her all the time, "Do you think I should do these things?" She always responded with honesty, "Thamer, the decision is up to you, but I think you should do it." So I always trusted her because she never let me down and always recommended the right things for me. Lastly, Hina Kargar will be, one day, well-known globally because she’s the most powerful woman I have dealt with in my entire life. Thank you, Hina Kargar. You helped me to achieve my childhood dream, and you know that I came to the UK for a vacation for two weeks, and then you also know why I decided to apply for asylum. I decided to celebrate my victory today in my own way. I purchased an England football shirt and printed your name on it, including the number three, which matches 03/06/2026—the day you informed me that the Home Office accepted my application. Whenever I wear this T-shirt, I want people to read your name so they can know who is behind me: the most powerful woman, Hina Kargar. Thanks, Thamer Altaher
Mr Patel helped me in a very complex case regarding family law matters and children matters, Mr Patel always communicated with me in both phone calls and emails to make sure I understood what was happening and if I had any "instructions" to give him. He has a legal knowledge that is beyond what I have ever seen, my case has been ongoing for years, but Mr Patel has a patience that is admirable and over and over he explained to me even when I didnt or couldn't comprehend it myself , the situation, or understand. Mr Patel always had me and my children's best interest and he made sure legally I was aware of my rights.. Mr Patel went beyond for us, I will always be grateful and remember what he did for me. Kindest Regards N.P
stressfull experience- My experience with Nicole francisco at duncan was disappointing . throughoout my family lawmatter , i experience significant delays , lack of support and poor communication. she bever understood the case and repeatedly explained the case updates chashing for inofrmation. I raised formal and writted complaints and the replay was either supervisor on the case has left the firm or the solictor is new, why would you assign big case to unexperience lawyers , they charge you advance and they will charge you till the last penny when you raise concern. ,would not recommend this firm and especially if you are dealing with the above mentioned solicitor .
I cannot recommend Jade Whitelaw highly enough. She represented me in relation to a Non-Molestation Order and Occupation Order and handled my case with exceptional care, professionalism, and compassion throughout. Jade was attentive from the very beginning, taking the time to listen carefully and ensure that every detail of my situation was properly understood. She was incredibly patient and thorough when taking my statement, guiding me through the process with sensitivity and reassurance during what was an extremely difficult and emotional time. Her expertise, dedication, and attention to detail helped me achieve a positive outcome, and I always felt supported and well-informed at every stage of the proceedings. Jade's calm and compassionate approach made a challenging situation much more manageable, and I am truly grateful for all of her hard work and support. Thank you, Jade, for your professionalism, kindness, and commitment to securing the best possible result for me. Kristiana Thomas

I am very grateful for the ongoing support I continue to receive from Duncan Lewis Solicitors Ltd, especially from Bansari Mevcha, who has represented me across multiple ongoing family law matters, including Financial Remedies. Dealing with family, children, and divorce matters can be incredibly stressful and emotionally challenging, but throughout the process I have felt genuinely supported, listened to, and reassured. Bansari has always been professional, approachable, and understanding. She explains everything clearly in a way that is easy to understand and provides practical and honest advice which has helped me make informed decisions during a very difficult time. I have always been kept updated on my matters, and communication has consistently been timely, professional, and reassuring. What I appreciate most is her calm and supportive manner alongside her strong legal knowledge and commitment to my case. The support I continue to receive has made a difficult situation much easier to navigate, and I feel confident that my matters are being handled with care and professionalism. I would definitely recommend Duncan Lewis Solicitors, and Bansari Mevcha to anyone needing reliable and supportive family law representation.

Hello. I would like to express my gratitude to Tehseen Afreen as a caseworker who worked hard to achieve a positive outcome in my case. As a responsible person, I recommend him to other clients.
I had an excellent experience with Duncan Lewis Solicitors, particularly with my lawyer, Raj Vardhan Choubey. From the very beginning, he handled my case with a high level of professionalism, dedication, and expertise. Throughout the process, he took the time to explain every stage of my case clearly and ensured that I fully understood the legal procedures involved. Communication was outstanding. Raj was always responsive to my emails and queries, and he provided detailed explanations whenever I needed clarification. I was kept informed about the progress of my case at every stage, which gave me confidence and peace of mind during what could have been a very stressful time. What impressed me most was Raj’s knowledge and commitment to achieving the best possible outcome for my case. He demonstrated genuine care, attention to detail, and a strong understanding of immigration law. His willingness to answer all my questions patiently and thoroughly made me feel supported throughout the entire process. I am extremely grateful for the assistance and support I received from Duncan Lewis Solicitors. I would highly recommend the firm to anyone seeking legal representation, especially in immigration matters. If you are looking for a solicitor who is professional, knowledgeable, approachable, and truly committed to helping their clients, I would strongly recommend Raj Vardhan Choubey. Thank you, Raj Vardhan Choubey, for all your hard work, support, and dedication. Your assistance has been greatly appreciated.
I had an amazing experience with Duncan Lewis Solicitors, especially with my lawyer Ojashwi Sidharth and the translator Mr. Mina Ebid. They were incredibly helpful, patient, and professional throughout the entire process. Ojashwi explained every single detail clearly and was always very quick to respond to my questions, while Mina made communication completely seamless. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for an honest and dedicated team. Thank you for the outstanding support
