Soulla kokkinos been my rock

My first baby was taken away from my at 4 months of age from the hospital and was one of the most painful heartbreaking and challenging times for me mentally,  thank you to Soulla and her team was a very calming supportive influence in a very uncertain time.  They helped me to navigate the situation and put together a deal that protected me and my future.  Whilst I flapped and stressed they calmly advised me to get to a resolution.   It was a very tough situation that Soulla and her team helped me to manage and navigate to a positive outcome. and after 7 months fight I got back my baby Thank you to Soulla and her team for all the efforts they put please keep going the good work

Very blessed to have found Sternberg Reed.

After 7 years of extensive family proceedings I started to lose hope in the legal system and found it hard to trust again, until I was recommended Sternberg Reed by a friend my relationship with Sternberg Reed became strong very quickly where they offered support when needed and were always available. They believed in me and wanted to resolve the issues as quick as possible so our family could finally move forward. This had all been achieved by all the members of staff that supported me and the children and I'm extremely grateful. Thank you to all the staff at Sternberg Reed Barking. Jeanine Cherry

Katie is the best!

Katie talked me through every step of the process of what I needed to do and what she had to do to get the outcome we desired. And thanks to her brilliant communication and fast work we got exactly what we wanted. Was there for me every step of the way no question was too silly and was always honest and had mine and my children’s best interest in mind. Would highly recommend!

Danielle Apenteng represented me for an occupational order.

Danielle has been absolutely amazing from start to finish in my case. Very knowledgeable and efficient she explained the process and listened to every thing I said. I got in contact with the firm after different solicitors failed to represent me properly and I am so happy I did. Everything has been dealt with quickly and efficiently. Danielle has been so kind and showed real empathy during what has been the most stressfull time of my life and for that I am eternally grateful. I will recommend Danielle and the Sternberg reed team to anyone who needs family law representation.

Danielle has been absolutely amazing from the start to finish of my court cases for an occupational order. I switched over to her from a previous solicitor as they really failed to act on my behalf. Danielle explained things thoroughly and was quick to act in the short amount of time given. She’s been so kind and empathetic throughout, quick to respond and organise all court hearings and legal representation for me. Thank you Danielle and team you will never know how much I appreciate how hard you have worked for me over the past few months.

Exceptional Legal Support

I recently had the pleasure of working with Judith Gould from Stenberg Reed regarding an employment law matter. From the very beginning, Judith demonstrated a level of empathy and knowledge that immediately put me at ease. She went above and beyond to provide me with the necessary information, ensuring I felt heard and understood throughout the process.

Judith's expertise in employment law is unparalleled. She patiently and considerately explained all aspects of my case, addressing every concern I had with thoroughness and care. Her ability to break down complex legal jargon into understandable terms was immensely helpful, allowing me to fully grasp the situation and make informed decisions.

What truly sets Judith apart was her genuine care. She treated me with the utmost respect and consideration, taking the time to listen and respond thoughtfully. Her compassionate approach made a world of difference, turning a stressful situation into a manageable one.

Judith's dedication to her job is evident in the way she goes above and beyond her job description. She consistently exceeded my expectations, providing support and guidance every step of the way. Thanks to her, my concerns were alleviated, and I felt confident in the resolution of my case.

I wholeheartedly recommend Judith Gould and the entire team at Stenberg Reed for anyone in need of legal assistance. Their professionalism, knowledge, and genuine care for their clients make them an outstanding choice. Thank you, Judith, for your exceptional service and unwavering support.

I used Sternberg Reed for conveyancing - I had a difficult experience working with the seller and the sellers solicitor, their communication was poor and I encountered numerous issues.

Raj Sharma and Vicki were a pleasure to work with. Raj gave us expert advice and helped us secure our purchase.
Thank you to Raj and Team!

the website speaks completely the opposite from real life ,when i called today i had a very poor service i am not going to mention her name but within 2 minutes she told me as a valued customer to slow down not in a nice manner but loudly and then she repetedly told me £240 which i didn't get at all .instead of giving a proper professional service and be nice i do understand is friday probably been hectic for them the whole week there is no need for bad service .i will keep looking i think i will extend my search to seaside bournemouth or brighton they're more relaxed i believe ,bit disapointed i must admit i think you should stay on a furlough imho.
