Thoughtful and Diligent family law firm

5

I've used RIAA for both Wills and Nuptial agreements, as well as Deed in Trust. They are an intelligent and friendly group of people, looking out for their clients.
The only ding is 1) change of attorneys mid case due to the departure of previous and 2) an IT issue that delayed work for a few weeks. This is not the fault of the law firm so would still very much recommend.

Older People and LPAs

We used James McMullan and Charlotte Barbaroussis to have our Wills/LPAs amended. We felt that this process was a little more complex than usual. However, we were given suitable options in the present financial climate, to all questions asked and additional guidance on matters we had overlooked. We were kept informed of the process and contacted by Charlotte every step of the way and found her friendly, personable but polished, approachable and professional.

Divorce & Wills

5

I had my initial free consultation with Vandana Chitroda who was knowledgeable and excellent. When she left the firm, Pippa Marshall took over my case and together with Maheen Khalid, they both saw me through the remainder of my Divorce proceedings to an amicable end. Pippa is competent, thorough, and knowledgeable and was spot on with her advice and together with Maheen Khalid who played an extremely important supporting role throughout. James McMullan and Charlotte provided exceptional service with clear guidance on the preparation of my Will. I highly recommend the Firm as I feel they will guide appropriately and endeavour for the best outcome for their client and I trust their advice completely. Whilst I do not wish the situation on anyone, but somehow if you do find yourself in this difficult position, these are the Team you can trust completely. Couldn't recommend highly enough.

Should you need further assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Thank you again for your kind words.

We were advised by Charlotte Barbaroussis. Her dealings were very professional. She was pleasant easy to deal with and very approachable. Her help during the process of setting up my wife's and my will made the task a lot easier.

James McMullan, at what was Barker Gillette, has looked after my affairs for many years now and it is reassuring to have solicitors that I trust implicitly. Charlotte was an excellent addition to the team and I was impressed from her arrival with her prompt replies and general efficiency.
