I had a really good experience working with Sumera. She was very friendly, professional, and provided prompt service throughout (as I I needed to complete urgently). Everything was handled efficiently, and I felt well supported at every stage. Highly recommended!

I had an excellent experience working with Sumera at Askews Legal. From the very beginning, she was professional, approachable, and clear in explaining every step of the process. She handled my matter with care and efficiency, always keeping me updated and ensuring I understood the options available. Her support made a potentially stressful situation much easier to manage, and I am very grateful for her guidance. I would highly recommend Sumera and Askews Legal to anyone in need of reliable and compassionate legal assistance.
