Children custody

My case was handled very well and professionally. My solicitor made me feel comfortable and she listened to my concerns and dealt with matters promptly. she arranged for interpreters to ensure I was informed and understood every step of the processes at court hearings. She kept me up to date with any changes or decisions and knows about legal matters. I am very pleased with the outcome of my case and very grateful as without her guidance I would have been lost and not had access to my children.

Extremely happy with the service received

George Osuala represented a family friend. He gave a very strong representation and did justice to this gentleman who had been in prison for over 20 years. Very good communication and was always able to contact him without delay when needed.

I highly recommend Duncan Lewis Solicitors, especially Alleena Akhtar, for anyone seeking expert legal advice and representation. Alleena handled our case for Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) in the UK with exceptional diligence and professionalism.

From the very beginning, Alleena demonstrated a deep understanding of immigration law and took the time to explain every step of the process clearly and patiently. Her hard work and attention to detail were evident throughout, ensuring that our case was thoroughly prepared and submitted with care.

Alleena’s approachable and supportive attitude made what could have been a stressful process much easier to navigate. Thanks to her efforts, our ILR application was successful, and we are incredibly grateful for her assistance.

If you are in need of a hardworking and professional solicitor, I cannot recommend Alleena Akhtar and Duncan Lewis Solicitors enough.

I don't know how the whole company work but if its anything like the amazing solicitor Hannah, YOU ARE ALL GOOD!.
I had a LONG 3 year case "arrangments order" even though I had my son and the mother moved away to Scotland!, I was DRUGGED through the mud by EVERY party, that claimed to care for my son safety. Croydon child services, Met police, chair people, GPS and many more, even the courts giving the mother multiplechancesfrom being no shows and talking to her one on one! No matter what I did or didn't do, no matter how I listened, I was ALWAYS in the wrong and blamed for EVERYTHING, painted to be a monsters. Constantly hearing "a child needs his mother" regardless of anything.
Due to how badly I was constantly treated, like I'm a father, I can't look after a child, how I was made to look like a monster with no proof of anything. When I got paired with Hannah, I literally thought "just any other person who will take the mothers side just because", I did not trust her for MONTHS and just rolled with the conversation and did what she asked. As time went on I realised she was the ONLY person who was 1 listening to anything I said and 2 (most importantly) putting my sons safety/what's best for him FIRST!. She would always professional, even if I was a mess over the phone, from the stress getting to me. At one point I wanted to pull my application from the case because nothing was keeping my boy safe. Hannah being her amazing/professional solicitor that she is, never once told me what to do but give me her suggestions and it's down to me wether I listened or not. I'm very grateful that we was able to always keep a level, give me her time when needed and overall (well from my perspective) do her job fantastically.
Hannah if you reading this THANK YOU😊
