I would like to say a huge thank you to Karen Reardan who has helped me with my divorce. Karen has been very supportive throughout this and has always explained everything to me very clearly and has done her job flawlessly. I would highly recommend Karen and Askews Solicitors.

Just wanted to give a quick thanks to Askews Legal team, namely Shyam and Candice who have both helped a case I recently had to deal with. The team were very helpful and supportive throughout and gave us clear advice as and when necessary. I would highly recommend Askews Legal, so once again, thank you very much from myself and all of my family.

I had a great experience with Askews Solicitors, especially Sumera Ehsan. Sumera supported me through a really stressful time and made everything so much easier to deal with. She worked quickly and efficiently, taking over communication with my employer’s solicitor, which was such a relief. Her proactivity, professionalism and clear guidance eased my stress significantly, and I only wish I had known to reach out to them sooner. I must mention again how quickly Sumera worked to resolve my situation at short notice. I can’t recommend highly enough. Thank you for the excellent service!

Askews was one of the solicitors recommended to us by our estate agent fortheir lead times when we were selling a house. We chose them based on thereviews and were not disappointed. Main dealings were with Paul andKierandeep and everything went smoothly and any questions were answeredquickly. We had a problem with the first completion date a few days beforehandover due to our buyers buyers not being ready which they had notdisclosed but Kierandeep and Paul listened to our concerns and intervenedand it was rescheduled and completed 3 weeks later. Would definitely recommend.
