Report
I do not recommend. Had a very poor experience with one of their solicitors, Gurleen Kaur. Whilst representing me she showed no interest in my case at all, actively worked on other peoples cases during our face-to-face time, did not bother responding to any of my emails until I was forced to CC in her manager (and then when she did reply, she gave me the wrong information.) That said, I did get the outcome I was after.
