§ Reviews
What clients say.
Five Star treatment from start to finish, the Reception for keeping me updated by the post Matthew Nicholson at the Start but the Star of my representation was Nimmi Hirani I felt comfortable and well informed,and help contacting the Social workers ,so I truly recommend this team And Company
Used to defend one of our adult children. Excellent service and communication from Nimmi Hirani, explained the legal jargon in plain english and offered solid advice. Well worth the reasonable costs charged - I hope we don't need to use them again, but if we needed a defence solicitor in Edinburgh they would be my go-to first choice every time.
