I had an excellent experience with my employment solicitor, Sumera. She explained everything clearly from the start, making what could have been a stressful situation feel straightforward and manageable.

Communication was outstanding - she was always quick to respond, often instantly, and answered all my questions in a clear and reassuring way. She was also very understanding throughout the settlement process and took the time to ensure I fully understood each step.

Most importantly, everything was handled efficiently and professionally, giving me full confidence that my case was in safe hands.

I would highly recommend Sumera to anyone needing reliable and supportive legal assistance.

Really happy with the service we received during our house purchase. Everything was explained clearly, communication was good throughout, and any questions we had were answered quickly. Buying a house can be stressful, but they helped make the process straightforward and kept things moving.

Askews came highly recommended, so we instructed them as our solicitors in the sale of our rather complex property sale. The service we received can’t be faulted, the team were prompt and clear and never had to be chased. Paul and Stephen gave us a brilliant service and I would highly recommend.

We had an absolutely fantastic experience with ASKEWS Legal team during our mortgage process. From start to finish, the service was professional, efficient, and incredibly supportive.

A very special thank you to Parvinder Sanghera, Simran Sanghera, and Anya Gardner. They went above and beyond at every stage, keeping us informed, responding promptly to our questions, and making what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and manageable. Their attention to detail and dedication truly stood out.

The whole team did an outstanding job, and we are so grateful for their hard work and commitment. We always felt reassured knowing we were in such capable hands.

We would highly recommend ASKEWS LEGAL firm to anyone looking for reliable and professional solicitors. Thank you again for everything!

They were very professional and I was carried along the process. I will recommend Askews legal to family and friends for sure, for the good and excellent service. Good job.

Jane & Stephen were both extremely helpful throughout

Adrian W.

I contacted Askews for advice on employment law, specifically voluntary redundancy. From first contact to completion of the relevant paperwork took just four working days. Lianne Payne was the epitome of professionalism throughout. If I am ever offered a similar scheme again, I know exactly who to turn to.

Clare W.

Lianne was excellent dealing with my redundancy settlement agreement. She totally supported me and made sure my settlement worked for me. Communication was first class, everything was explained clearly and thoroughly.

Sampoornam B.

Excellent professional service !! Thanks to Askews and team.

nigel B.

I had used Askews about ten years ago for the sale and purchase of properties. They were so efficient, I went back to them for the sale of my mums house. I first of all worked with Carly and Nisheet, both very responsive to queries.
I then worked with Jane and Stephen, towards completion of the sale. They were again efficient and got things done when they needed to be. I am keen to stay on top of things myself and they did not disappoint.
As I was more than happy with the service, I used Jane and Stephen for the purchase of my house later in the year.

Joey H.

I can’t express my gratitude enough for Mr Mohammad Farooq (criminal department), who was my solicitor during my criminal proceedings.
He really believed in me from the start and knew I needed someone fighting my corner. Mr Farooq could see how much this was affecting me mentally as my situation had a big impact on the relationship with my two year old girl. He showed great empathy and kindness going above and beyond to keep me updated on all aspects of my case, making me feel he was there for me throughout if I needed him.
He was very professional in his work and advice he gave me. He ensured all documents were uploaded on time and I recieved everything I requested in a timely manner. He quickly made himself available for any phone calls or meetings that I requested.
Mr Farooq recommended and secured me an outstanding barrister and between them they ensured the right outcome at my trial. For that myself, my daughters and the rest of my family will be forever greatful.

Thank you Mohammad, a true gentleman and credit to Askews Legal

Joe J.

Lianne helped me from start to finish with my employment settlement agreement and made the whole process feel straightforward and stress-free. She was incredibly supportive, efficient, and took the time to clearly explain everything to me so I always knew where I stood. Everything was completed within a very short timeframe, which I really appreciated. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Askews again. Thank you, Lianne.

Askews made buying my first house a lot less stressful than I thought it would be. Everything was handled quickly and I was only involved when needed. If you are local to Coventry then it is very reassuring and convenient to be able to visit face to face as well.
