Very professional and quick

I had to find solicitors for a case at my work place, and I called Sydney Mitchel and everything went very smooth and quick. Moreover the solicitor who handled my case Carina, was exceptional. She took the time to understand my side of the story, and managed to negotiate a better settlement for me. I would recommend her and the firm anytime.

Trudne kupno zakończone sukcesem

Bardzo dobry service od początku do końca. Pani Marta dzieliła się informacjami oraz nadzorowała kupno jak tylko mogła.
Co prawda cała sprawa sporo zajęła, ale było to ponad możliwości samego prawnika, ponieważ inne jednostki obnizaly sprawność całej operacji. Ogólnie cały proceder między mną pani Martą był bardzo sprawny i szybki. Polecam serdecznie, na pewno nie będzie nikt zawiedziony. Bardzo miła obsługa.

Big thanks to Marta Konieczna and all her assistants to deal with buying our new property.
Much to our surprise, knowing our knowledge about buy and sell, everything went smoothly, and without any problems. In a word, the company respects its customers.
