Thank you Karen

K J Smith Solicitors were the only solicitors (out of four) that gave me any optimism when first approached. This was a very welcome relief after having received a very bleak outlook from the other companies… thank you again [Karen Harvey] for your warmth and kindness

I am grateful.

Kulbir Rahi brought clarity and direction to what had, before her involvement, become an onerous and unwieldy situation. She was able to grasp the nuances of our case with alacrity, and quickly outlined the salient points and actions necessary for me to move forward with assurance. Mrs Rahi has great legal knowledge and a professional but kind manner. Meeting with her made all the difference to me when the going had gotten very tough and I am grateful.

Thank you Eleanor Towsey

I am so grateful for all the support and guidance you [Eleanor Towsey] have given me during this process and for the compassion and understanding you have shown not only with divorce but also with the on-going health issues with my father. It was wonderful to see you on the news at the start of the month, I was with my new partner at the time and said that's my solicitor! I continue to recommend you to any friends who are in need of legal assistance regarding family law due to my experience with you.

Absolutely incredible

Robyn Karimaghaee took over my case part-way through court proceedings. Robyn is absolutely incredible on all levels and she got up to speed with my case very quickly. Robyn is emotionally committed, down-to-earth and professional and has fought my case with integrity and supported me with compassion at every step. Robyn has been extremely thorough, and I have every faith in her ability and passion to see my case through to the happy ending we are working towards.

Very helpful

Today I discussed matters with Laura in regards to the emotional abuse my child is being subjected to by my ex partner. She was very professional and able to offer me the right advice as to steps I need to take. I feel very confident with her advice and appreciative of the time taken to offer me this opportunity to help my situation.

Professionalism. Responsiveness, value and Quality

I have felt supported and empowered to make decisions and life changes that I felt unable to do alone without the guidance and legal advice from you [Laura Gusatu]. You have made a very stressful time much easier for me and my children and I am very grateful for all the work you did for us. and the effort was more geared towards solving my problems than seeing me as a source of revenue. Highly recommended and Thank you very much.

Regarding Dan Norris - Family Law

I just wanted to express my deepest gratitude to Dan Norris for his exceptional support and kindness over the past two years. Navigating through such a messy divorce was incredibly challenging, but your unwavering professionalism and empathy made a world of difference.

Your guidance and understanding provided me with the strength and clarity I needed during this difficult time. I truly appreciate the dedication and care you showed throughout the entire process.

I am now in my new house and finally have new beginnings

Thank you once again for being such a remarkable solicitor and for your invaluable support.

I wish you well for the future.

I can’t speak highly enough of KJ Smith's solicitor. Harpreet has been exceptional in her support throughout my case. From the very beginning, she took the time to explain every detail, ensuring I was well-informed and able to make my own decisions. It was clear that my best interests were her top priority, as she consistently went above and beyond my expectations. Her dedication, attention to detail, and unwavering support were invaluable, allowing me to navigate what initially seemed like a daunting process with confidence. I am truly thankful for all her hard work and couldn't have asked for a more committed advocate. Thank you, Harpreet, for your outstanding service!

A client

Just wanted to thank KJ Smith for being superb practice. What attracted me to this legal firm and especially Mrs Laura Gusatu was, that she took my request seriously and replied to me in 12 hours due to the nature of my case. Bear in mind, that she spent hours explaining to me in detail and advising me how to proceed with no charges it was all free. Mrs Laura gave me legal advice related to my query. Not the least, she was empathetic, showing her respect and consideration for me as a human being which makes such a difference to know someone is genuine and unbelievably supportive.
Mrs Laura Gusatu answered all my questions promptly and fully either by email or on the phone, she was extremely knowledgeable and helpful, with a very kind and understanding nature that helped no end through what was a stressful time. I would highly recommend the company KJ Smith and Laura Gusatu in particular, she made everything easier in a very human way.
