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.
