Client Testimonials

"Patient and Persevering"

Sonia, I would like to thank you for the patient and persevering professionalism with which you have handled our case. We were extremely fortunate to have found you as our solicitor. I like the manner with which you clearly outlined our legal case, and how you were always patient, tolerant, and available and ready to address each and every concern we might have.

Mr O

"Compassion and Patience"

In April my son was arrested, he was questioned for 48 hours in police custody and he was subsequently charged for conspiracy to supply drugs. We contacted Powell Spencer & Partners and within an hour we were called by Sandra Riordan (solicitor psp). Those initial 48 hours were extremely stressful, we didn’t know what was happening and couldn’t contact our son. At every stage Sandra Riordan talked us through what was happening and what to expect. It was not just myself or my husband she was supporting it was also my extended family in which she showed compassion and patience.

Mrs O’Connell

"Sonia went the extra mile"

Sonia Dass – immigration lawyer, successfully helped me to bring my husband to the UK on a spousal visa. Sonia provided advice, support on the visa application from beginning to end and clear instructions on what supporting documents were required. Sonia went the extra mile by keeping me up to date with the visa process even on days/hours she was not due to work. Sonia made an extremely daunting process a lot easier to go through. I would highly recommend Sonia Dass to anyone going through any visa/immigration process.

Thank you Sinead for all your support. You are a brilliant Solicitor and we couldn’t have had better. Hopefully we won’t have to use your services again but you would be first choice. Thanks again from the family

"Best Advice Best Assistance"

I am very glad that Nanette was my solicitor during my family law case. She was supportive and knowledgeable and I felt comfortable and secure knowing that she would give me the best advice and assistance. I now have a new life out of London with my son and there is no longer the fear that he is going to be removed from my care by the local authority.

"I am very grateful to Nanette"

I am very grateful to Nanette for all the hard work she undertook on my case. Her knowledge of the law and procedure was essential and she took great care to prepare me for each step in the proceedings. I am happy to recommend Nanette to my friends and family when they need advice.

"Salt of the earth"

Sometimes out of the blue we get emails or letters that reflect the effort we put in over the years…Here is one Greg Powell got on the 24th July 2019:

“Hope all is well with you. Back in February I suffered a stroke but grateful to still be here, alive. It could be worse. Thanks for all you have done for me over the years…Salt of the earth you are. Nice.”

"Puja made us feel at ease"

On behalf of my family and myself, I would like to say a big “THANK YOU” to PUJA SONI, of Powell and Spencer Solicitors, for her brilliance and dedication shown throughout her dealings and representation in our behalf. Puja made us feel at ease and always answer our questions knowledgeably and professionally, throughout our years with the firm. For anyone to comprehend what I’m saying, they would need to experience it themselves. I would surely recommend Puja to others.

Mr P, London

"She is the best"

Sandy Randhawa is a very good Solicitor and I would recommend her to anyone. She takes pride in her work and deals with every case differently. Sandy endeavours to make sure the client is at ease. Sandy makes sure that any case she takes on, she will put her 110% into it and goes out of the box. I had started my case whilst Sandy was working for another firm of Solicitors and then sandy had decided to move on to far better fields and prospects. I had no faith in the existing Representatives and requested that the case be taken with sandy to the new firm she was moving to. Summary in one sentence: “She is the best” Many thanks for what you achieved, as you actually saved a life.

"We Won"

Criminal charges: An Awful and difficult situation for anyone, a private prosecution by a regulatory authority, a first time in a criminal court and on trial. Two earlier firms of solicitors who really were not listening to what I said or felt and in such situations one longs for the rescue by the cavalry. Greg Powell was recommended as a man of solid reputation and one not afraid to take on the odds. I called him; he listened, and then acted. He carefully considered the case and allocated an excellent barrister who was impeccable. We won. My barrister assigned to the case was always on hand and meticulous in preparing the case.

"This was the best prepared case"

Here is a testimonial from a defendant facing serious and sensitive charges for which there was a risk of custody beyond 12 years imprisonment if convicted. The defendant was acquitted of all 10 charges in the case, in lengthy and prolonged litigation: “I know how hard you worked on my behalf and I really do appreciate it. I remember (defence counsel) commenting that this was the best prepared case he’d ever worked on. Thank you so so much for your professionalism, tenacity, effort and attention to detail. Words can’t express how I feel at the acquittal. It’s what I had always wanted and hoped for but had felt was impossible after the inevitable prejudice (of certain evidence).”

"You were positive"

Just a note, to say a big thank you for all your help in securing my Leave to Remain. When I came to you I had already put in an application for leave to remain which had been turned down. But talking to you and discussing my case with you, you felt sure that you could help us to achieve this. So with your help a new application was submitted and I was quickly successful in getting my leave to remain. It was your determination and the content of letters that you wrote that we managed to secure it; and the whole process only took 3 months. You were positive, professional throughout and a joy to work with and I have no hesitation in working with you again should the need arise.
