Megan Heger Solicitor

Megan is an excellent solicitor she was so very helpful sorting the probate after my late Mothers sad death last year. I found Megan to be very approachable and friendly whilst also being very professional. I cannot thank Megan Heger and all the team at Sydney Mitchell in Sheldon. I would highly recommend Sydney Mitchell LLP in Sheldon. My family has always used Sydney Mitchell LLP for conveyancing when we've moved house. Megan and the whole team were truly wonderful during what was such a difficult point in my life.

Excellent Service

From the moment we met Kevin he put us a ease, as not ever going through anything like this before. He was very professional, patient and knowledgeable and took the time to explain things thoroughly, it made the situation less stressful knowing we were in his capable hands. He was so good with my mom who is in her very late 70's and explained everything slowly. Thank you very much for your help with this and on this basis I would recommend Sydney Mitchell to anyone.

Dying Intestate

I'd like to thank Kevin Dhanda of Sydney Mitchell for being absolutely brilliant throughout the whole process of a difficult year after my sisters sudden death. She died intestate and Kevin handled the whole matter from applying for Letters of Administration, capital gains queries for the Inland Revenue and sorting out the whole Estate. He was thorough, professional and reassuring at all times. Would definitely recommend him.

Estate of Deceased Relative

During the time that it took to deal with our late relative's estate, Kevin Dhanda and his colleagues at Sydney Mitchell always provided a comprehensive, efficient and professional service. This was particularly important to us due to the geographical distance involved between ourselves as Executors and the location of our relative's home address. Thank you again for your outstanding service. Your professionalism and expertise were truly appreciated.

Thanks to Mr. Andre

I would like to sincerely thank Lawyer Andre Minar for his outstanding support and professionalism. I successfully obtained my Permanent Residence in the UK. Lawyer Andre Minar is the best lawyer I have ever worked with. He is highly experienced, always responds quickly, and truly cares about his clients. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a professional immigration lawyer. Thank you,

Jamie provided exceptional service

Jamie absolutely delivered on all fronts and it was a privilege to get to work with him for our spouse visa. We cannot recommend him highly enough. He is competent, calm, professional, and made a very stressful process feel manageable. He completes all tasks in a timely matter, he is responsive, and his attention to detail is unparalleled. He walked us through every single step of the process so that we felt comfortable and is the kind of person that truly understands what his clients need. Throughout the entire process, my husband and I often found ourselves saying to each other "It's okay, we don't have to worry, Jamie is on it" and I can promise that is the kind of person you want on your team when going through this process. This is not something we would have wanted to do alone, but truly Jamie overdelivered on every single expectation we had. We can't thank him enough!

Excellent Support and Dedication Throughout My Case

Title: Excellent legal support throughout my case I had a very positive experience with the firm throughout my asylum appeal. André handled my case with great care and attention, carefully reviewing my evidence, identifying important issues and guiding me through a very difficult and stressful process. I especially appreciated his dedication and the work he put into my case, including during the urgent stages. I am very grateful for the support and professional service I received and would highly recommend the firm.
