Exceptional Service and Support from Andy

5

From the outset, Andy provided an outstanding level of professionalism and support. He meticulously explained every aspect of the process in a manner that was both clear and accessible, ensuring I was always comfortable and well-informed. The pricing was transparent and straightforward, with no hidden surprises. In a field so far removed from my usual experience, Andy's expertise and reassuring manner made me feel completely at ease. I genuinely felt that I was in exceptionally safe hands throughout the entire process. I wholeheartedly recommend his services to anyone in need of reliable and empathetic legal assistance.

I needed to find a solicitor to handle my redundancy from work. I was recommended Consilia Legal by a friend and i have been delighted with the work completed. I was contacted the same day I enquired about representation by Andy Boyde, Legal Director, who clearly explained the process and costs.

The whole experience was professional and stress-free which is just what i needed.
