Probate Family Drama

I hope you never need to use her services in such emotional circumstances 😔. But if you do I can highly recommend her! I found Alana following the death of my mother, my family members some of whom were executors of the will decided to start making decisions about my inheritance that were not in my interest. Alana coming from a similar background to myself understood immediately what was happening and offered to be my advocate in the issues regarding my mom's estate. She could have milked this situation completely but has not and maintained a high level of professionalism whilst hearing my point of view. I'm glad to say that since she has been involved my stress level are minimal and I know the situation is in order. If you want a fair assessment of your situation and an upfront appraisal of what's involved from someone who definitely knows what they're doing. Give Alana a call đŸ€™. 10 out of 10 from me.

I’m not sure where to begin, after finding myself in a difficult situation of needing advice on where to start with my personal matter; Blackham’s reassured me from my first phone call and I knew they were the going to support me through out my entire case. They were assertive, their knowledge was next to none and the outcome of my case was proof of the effort and compassion that went into it. Thank you to Taswar and the team, I’m beyond grateful for everything you did for me and my children.

Taswar has been an incredible support throughout the challenging two-year battle for custody of my children. Their unwavering dedication and commitment to my case were evident at every step of the way. Taswar's professionalism, expertise, and personalized approach, including thoughtful gestures like sending Christmas cards, truly made a difference during the most trying times. Without their guidance and support, I don't believe I would have persevered through the toughest moments of my life. I wholeheartedly recommend Taswar to anyone in need of legal assistance, especially in family matters, as their compassion and proficiency are unparalleled.

The conveyancing team at Blackhams did an absolutely brilliant job on my house purchase. It was a complicated scenario with multiple conveyancers involved. Taranjeet and her team really drove the process through to completion. I don't think the transaction would have got done without Taranjeet's determination. If you want to buy or sell a property, I highly recommend Blackhams.
