The best solicitors!!
We are very grateful for our lawyers Phil Mahoney and Ed Youlton. They handled our case with compassion and they were very understanding of our situation. During this difficult time I was always lent a sympathetic ear which was very much appreciated. I hoped for total support from them but I got so much more. I would highly recommend GT Stewart and would definitely use them again in the future. Many many thanks again for everything, you were brilliant!

Patricia Walker was always very prompt with her replies and working out of hours to assist my case. Derek Duffy was professional, very personable and always reassuring. His knowledge and understanding at all times of my case was outstanding. The service he provided every day was reliable and also outstanding. A true gentleman.

Review left for GT Stewart
The whole team at GT Stewart were very pleasant. As I struggled to find the location a staff member came to get me which I found very generous even though we had snow that morning. A very big thank you to Phil who dealt with my Court hearings. There are not enough words to describe how grateful I am to Asmah Khalid for taking time in explaining everything to me. I would definitely recommend this firm to family and friends. Thank you.
