Without a doubt one of the best criminal law firms out there in London would be my first port of call always. Great attention to detail and always provided first class customer service. Must give a big shout out to both Rohit Sharma and Deepak Vij without whom I most likely would have recieved a custodial sentence...thank you so much for your tireless work over the last two years you are absolute legends!

It’s been a number of years since we have been in contact with Avb but I would like to thank Deepak, Amirah and Fergus for all their help and support through a very difficult time, this team are on hand to help every step of the way, nothing is too much trouble, excellent advice given, very professional and understanding to your needs, with their help our case was thrown out by the cps and we could get on with our lives once again. Thanks AVB couldn’t have managed without you .
