  • Did you think this was underpriced, overpriced or about right?
  • Overall experience

Outstanding! Genuine! Excellent Customer Service and Customer Care

Excellent Service received from IBB Law Uxbridge. I would highly recommend Jennifer Lewin, an outstanding knowledgeable and professional defence solicitor who was able to help through complex health issues in a defence case. JL ensured my son had all the support/reasonable adjustments as and when needed throughout the case in and out of court. I would recommend IBB law, Jennifer and the team she works with as trusted legal defence professionals from head of chambers/barristers, admin staff and out of hours staff.

EXCELLENT SERVICE

I had the sheer pleasure of being represented by Mr Fayyaz Alam in my court case that started at the Reading Magistrates Court and ended at Slough Magistrates Court. Mr Alam was diligent, articulate, simple, kind and very effective in disposing his duties. The outcome of my cases was more than I had anticipated. I am forever grateful to Mr Alam and, Alexandra at their offices. IBB Law and especially Mr Alam come highly, highly recommended. bless.

Park Home Purchase

I used IBB Law for my park home purchase, I went for the Gold package for extra piece of mind. Christina Barnes was my solicitor, a trainee Solicitor at the time. Christina's knowledge was superb, any questions on rules and regulations that I had she knew off the top of her head. I was always kept in the loop and any concerns were answered quickly and efficiently. Christian's work ethic was exemplary, my estate agent also commended her. Many thanks to Christina for the effort she put into getting my purchase through quickly and thoroughly.

Excellent service

One of the few solicitors that actually answered the phone on my initial enquiry. Very helpful and more importantly we received the correct advice that informed our decisions. Advice that would have been a bit unusual but was very critical. Always answered calls and emails promptly and they were always helpful and polite. Not the cheapest firm in the book, but value for money. Highly recommended.

Approachable and Friendly

My husband and I went to Michael Charalambous at IBB Law when looking for a solicitor to deal with my late brother’s estate.
From our first appointment with Michael we found him very professional, but also friendly and easy to talk to. He really helped us deal with a difficult situation and very awkward people. He always replied to our emails and phone calls promptly.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Michael and IBB Law to anyone looking for a good solicitor.

Drink whilst unfit to drive.

Never heard this kind of charges before even being under the breath limit, police decided to charge me. Sometimes you have to be very careful with police. I had to go through a rough time googling to find the right solicitor most of them were scaremongering showing the worst outcome and trying to charge a hefty fee. I really do not know why I choose IBB solicitors.
Natalie Demerist was my solicitor very calm and softly speaking, knew what she was doing without wasting any time, she dealt promptly with my case, My case was bit complicated as two county police were involved but with her professionalism she managed to convince the prosecutor and withdrew my charge and let me free without any disqualification or fines. I would really want to thank Natalie for taking my case and would want to recommend IBB solicitors hope they will keep up their good work and keep fighting for people like us who want to live a decent life but do not know what is on the corner. I would also like to thank Alexandra who always was calm and polite on the phone Thank you.

Jennifer Lewin is an outstanding knowledgeable and professional defence solicitor and comes across as a lovely caring lady too. JL represented my son, a young man who did have complex health issues in a complex defence case. She ensured my son had all the support and reasonable adjustments as and when needed throughout the case. I would recommend Jennifer highly, as a trusted legal defence professional who has links with head of chambers/barristers. I trust that JL will provide excellent customer service and genuine customer care.

IBB Law were faultless in their provision of conveyancing for the sale of my mother's house for whose estate I was the executor. As with many people who researched the property sales process I was advised that delays in conveyancing were one of the major barriers to the speedy sale of a property. IBB Law however were 'on the ball' from the inception. I would recommend them highly.
