Family Law - Financial

I wish I knew them earlier to also undertake my divorce and child's matters. Their aim is to solve your issue as quickly as possible and not drain you financially. They are quick, efficient, well-read, honest. I would definitely recommend.

excellent assistance with Section 21 Eviction procedure

5

We were assisted by Amber Rainford and Keith Holland at Smith & Co and they were basically faultless in their advice, service and execution of getting us through a difficult period where as landlords we needed to force an unwilling tenant to depart from one of our properties. Everything was clear, concise and cost efficient compared relatively speaking to what we had expected. We would not hesitate to use them again.

Helpful and positive in unusual case.

We went to see Amber with an unusual case. From the start we found her helpful, positive and professional. Amber consulted with us and kept us informed every step of the way until full, legal resolution was achieved. We are very grateful for her services and will most definitely go to her again if we ever need legal advice or action again in the future.
