Possession of Class A drugs

5

After a stop and search and being found to have a tiny amount of class A drugs I called MPR. Seema was extremely professional, got an understanding not only of myself as person, but a clear idea of the situation. She was able to advice me really clearly in terms of how to approach the situation, the most likely outcomes and was extremely professional in her approach. With no previous record, no history of offences and other personal factors considered, the ideal outcome was reached with the police and a community resolutions was offered. I can not thank Seema and MPR solicitors enough.

Great care and attention

5

Seema helped us with a very upsetting and potentially devastating situation for our family.
She was supportive and thorough.
She knew exactly how to handle such a delicate situation with professionalism as well as personal sensitivity.
Thank you for all your expertise at a time when we were in need of not just professionalism but also grace.

I can finally owe you guys a drink. What's your poison guys? Make sure its strong!

Thanks so much for your support over these last 3 years. Both Seema Parikh and Micheal McKee gave me a lot of hope even when things were looking down. You both worked the hours to give me the best result and simplified all the law jargon I never understood. You guys guided me above and beyond. I couldn't of got a great result without your hard work and dedication to my case.

I made the right decision in choosing MPR Solicitors and much gratefully to Seema and Micheal.

Its only now I can relax and send this email because before that I always thought what else can they do to me. Now they have discharged the restraint order it brings a lot of relief that its over. Bless and much love.

MPR helped our son

5

Our son went through a very difficult period when a false allegation was made against him. MPR acted empathetically, professionally and with dedication. Their work and support led to the removal of this dark cloud over him and he has been able to flourish, as the kind, determined and giving human that he is.

Exceptional solicitor with an excellent team

5

Being a professional and spotless history, I never imagine that I will be pushed into a nerve wrecking experience and found myself shamefully clueless in the legal world and left wondering how to find best legal firm. I started with two legal firms via Google, but soon realized that something is missing in their advice as both firms said, wait until you are charged by the police and only then we will initiate the defense - imagine your life being hung up and you have no idea as when and what comes next. After a long search, I found MPR Solicitor through https://www.reviewsolicitors.co.uk/. I spoke to their client services person and in few hours received a call from the firm senior partner Barrister Abdullah Al-Yunusi. He patiently listened to my emotional story and asked some key questions. The key message that I picked up from this conversation was that his firm's aspiration is to start the legal process ASAP with the intent of getting the case dropped before charges are pressed - obviously depending upon the nature of the case. This approach is very different compared to the other firms I have spoken to and in my case this proved to be the game changer. Just to give you the context; I have categorically asked the other firms if I can take any action at the early stages that might help my case and both firms responded with a big 'no'. Mr. Al-Yunusi delegated my case to Ms. Seema Parikh, partner. Seema immediately got in touch and worked with me over the next few days to get a full picture of my situation. She worked with me until late hours, even during the Christmas period, and finally proposed a strategy which ultimately got me the best outcome that I could have ever thought about - unbelievable!

I found Seema, not only professionally committed but empathetic towards her clients; I was treated with a human touch and all my interests even emotional and psychological were taken care-off. There are other issues linked to the primary legal matter and I found her very flexible in working with other solicitors outside of her area of expertise and even with a solicitor external to MPR. While she is diligent, committed and empathetic, she is professionally open and candid and always put up pros and cons before proposing her advice as we moved along the case. Ms Parikh is extremely knowledgeable in her area, clever, trustworthy, clear in her thoughts and expression, and very reassuring and I always have this feeling that she will put her best fight to get the best outcome. She also shared her mobile number to keep me at ease. In fact she also worked with my immediate family members during lengthy conversations on my case. In terms of the cost, although these matters are inherently expensive, she has been prudent in making the best value of my money. Her advise is professional regarding things which do not need to be followed up having no bearing on my life and just a waste of money and can be taken up at a later stage.

Beside Seema Parikh, Ms. Sapna Shah also handled my case on a different front and she was also outstanding. She always keeps me settled when I was kind of getting frustrated and want to take a different route. She insisted on her advice, which looks counter intuitive as my thoughts were kind of muddled and emotionally driven. That strategy ultimately brought another big relief. There is still work left which is being taken care of.

The case was conspired against me over a period of few years rather being a stand alone incident and hence challenging for the defence to prove innocence. MPR solicitors is a firm that treats their client with a human touch, they are flexible, easy to reach, their advice is professional and in the best interest of their client. I am very happy to recommend MPR solicitors to anyone.

I am a young professional who got into a bit of a pickle.

Seema right off the bat, at very short notice, advised and attended with me my first interview with the police, at 3am.

Her commitment to my case persisted where she was always supportive and also kept my parents in the loop, taking their calls late in the evening after working hours.

She secured a great barrister the very day after my initial hearing. In gearing up for the trial, she went out of her way to make sure I was confident and prepared, having multiple calls in the days leading up to the trial. She always kept my best interests in mind.

My case ended up being dismissed. I have Seema and her team to thank for taking care of my case (and me!) from start to finish.

Thank you Seema and MPR Solicitors

Seema and her team are amazing and must have patience of a saint when I was their client. Seema and Oliver went above and beyond to help me with my case. Seema was brutally honest, even when at times, I did not want to hear it, but she is the best at her job. I cannot recommend Seema and MPR Solicitors enough. Thank you all so much for all your help and patience with me.

I can highly recommend the services of MPR Solicitors, very professional and friendly. They are careful with every little detail and gave me the feeling that I was their only client. Seema Parikh and Abdullah Al-Yunusi are both both highly competent and extremely knowledgeable.

Like every company MPR is only as good as it's people, so although this review is about MPR it is primarily about it's people and in particular one person; Seema Parikh. Her desire to ensure the upmost is done is truly above and beyond professionalism and enters the realm of care. Lawyer's are often characterized in ways that are far from flattering, and sometimes for good reason, but if you want someone who will do everything you hoped could and would be done and then more, call MPR and ask for Seema.

First class service from Seema Parikh Senior Partner of MPR Solicitors. After harrowing allegations were made against me MPR responded with an assertive defense on my behalf, reassuring and an eye for detail ! this meant the allegations made against me by the Police were dropped.
I would highly recommend this company.
