Thakmina Begum and Mehreen Rahim-Bux

I have had an excellent experience with National Legal Service. Thakmina and Mehreen have made me feel at ease all throughout my case (nearly 2 years - mainly due to covid). They both have been very helpful, compassionate and have gone the extra mile in helping me in any which way they can. I was always informed and updated with any information regarding my case, which gave me peace of mind. Thakmina and Mehreen are both amazing at what they do! And I couldn't be anymore grateful for all they have done for me. Thanks again, Chelsea x

Excellent service from Jasmin Khatun

I had a really positive experience with Jasmine at National Legal Solicitors. She handled my case with professionalism and care. What I really appreciated was her ability to keep me calm during a very stressful period whilst I was feeling very nervous and anxious about the whole process. Her communication was excellent - she was always prompt in responding to my questions and kept me well informed throughout the whole process. I felt confident in her expertise and would definitely recommend her services.

Excellent service

I couldn’t be happier with the service I received from Emily. She was incredibly efficient, ensuring every step of the process was handled quickly and professionally. Whenever I had a question, she was always available to provide clear answers and guidance, which gave me complete peace of mind.

Emily is also very easy to talk to – she explains complex matters in a way that’s straightforward and understandable, and she genuinely listens. Her approachable manner, combined with her professionalism, made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and manageable.

I highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for a solicitor who is both skilled and personable.

Child arrangments

Krishna Booi was my solicitor while I was fighting for my child custody, was a though process but she was there standing for me and my family. I would chose her as many times possible. Krishna is very professional and she has empathy and she put all effort to help me. I trusted her since day one and she never failed me. Her advise is always to the best.
She knows what she is doing and no doubt that she is the best.
Even when I wanted to give up as the case seen without solution, she never gave up and she fought to the end with me.
Thank you Krishna for everything.

I just wanted to send a heartfelt thank you for everything you (Ibtissam El Boumashouli) did during my case. Your calm support, expert guidance, and unwavering commitment made such a difference. I honestly don’t know how I’d have navigated it all without you.

Thank you for being not just my lawyer, but someone I could count on. It means a lot.

I phoned several solicitor firms in order to find a solicitor that I felt had the necessary skills to protect my son and ensure his future. The first time that I spoke to Harvey Daniels, I knew that he was the right solicitor to represent me.

Harvey is not your traditional Solicitor. He, is a knowledgeable, caring, understanding, patient and professional Solicitor. He comprehensively explained every stage of my legal case, including action plans for every eventuality. This alone is evidence of his expertise and experience. Harvey has a gentle and genuinely caring nature about him. He actively listened to my worries and concerns and reassured me where possible without making any false promises.

Harvey spent hours on the phone answering my numerous questions. He never got impatient with me, despite the fact that I would ask the same questions repeatedly during the same phone call. Instead, he insisted that I asked any questions that I felt were necessary untill I understood the purpose of his phone call. I never felt rushed or that I was taking too much of his time. Harvey made me feel that I was never overwhelmed by my unusually long court case. He also updated me immediately of an actions. He also made feel that I was his only client despite the fact that I was not.

The applicant would constantly make late applications to the court on purpose, in an attempt to ambush Harvey. These applications were often made between 2 to 3am on the days of hearings. Nevertheless, Harvey was always ready to address these applications and never sounded flustered or unprepared.

Through Harvey's hard work and dedication, he achieved a successful Court Order that gave me Solely FULL PARENTAL RIGHTS UNTIL MY CHILD IS EIGHTEEN YEARS OLD WITH A BARRING ORDER THAT PREVENTS THE OTHER SIDE FROM MAKING FRIVOLOUS COURT APPLICATIONS FOR THREE YEARS. IN ADDITION TO NO DIRECT OR INDRECT CONTACT. NO VISITATION UNLESS THE COURT ORDER IS CHANGED.

I do not have the words to express my gratitude to Harvey for not only his tiredless work but the gueniue support that he gave me through my long court case.

Thank you Harvey.
