If you need the best call them

Well what can I say about Whiterose Blackmans……. At the worse time of my life I chose them firstly for my civil matters when going through a relationship breakdown to protect my assets and ensure everything was divided correctly. This then mentioned I used their family department to get back my access to my children. Unfortunately do to the mess my life was turning into I needed their experts in criminal law. Initially this was covered by Kamran Hussain who guided me through various police interactions he was always supportive and at the end of the phone to answer and questions. The reigns of my case were then handed over to Rizwana Mahmood for the next 3 years, yes 3 years!!!! She became more than just my solicitor I now count her as a friend as she went above and beyond, reassured me when worried, calmed me down when anxious and generally just there for me 7 days a week. Gave amazing advice when selecting a counsel when my trial became a reality after 4.5 years. Due to her and the whole team at Whiterose Blackmans I walked out of court a free man and my life that at several points I conceded could be over can now start again. I will always be grateful and thankful. If you ever find yourself in a situation that you never thought in your wildest dreams you would. Do not hesitate in calling them. Thanks again to everyone especially Riz she was a star!!!!!!

Would like to extend my gratitude to Rizvana Mahmood. Riz was incredible with me throughout with both her legal expertise, as well as on a personal level helping to keep my mind more at ease throughout the entire case. Was in safe hands throughout and was given the best possible barrister from them as well. Could not recommend Whiterose Blackmans or Riz anymore to anyone looking to use them to help with their case. Will never be able to thank them enough for what they have done for me!

I highly recommend Whiterose Blackmans Solicitors. They were exceptionally friendly from the initial contact, easing the process. Rizwana was truly amazing, ensuring I had one of the best barristers in the UK for my defence for the trial and making me feel at east throughout the whole process. I could have been behind bars right now if it wasn’t because of Rizwana and her team! Thank you so much for the help and support.

Over the moon with the outcome 5* SERVICE!
