    This firm is A* and above, after being with another firm for a year and a half Sam and Ellen exceeds expectations. The attention to detail, understanding and helping me as a client with severe anxiety, they are golden. I would highly recommend this firm through and through. Sam as the solicitor understands all your concerns and Ellen as the Barrister were just the team I needed. Thank you so much!
