I wouldn’t thank them enough for my case. Mr Wahab, Mr Hasif and Leela. I would certainly recommend them to others, they are funny, helpful and professional. An amazing team and appreciate their time and effort for my case 😊
I would like to thank Mr Wahab for being so kind as to take on our case. Together with his team, they were very accommodating and took the time to explain to us the process of how our matter would go about.
This is very important for us knowing that it was our first time in this situation and having them do that helped us in our understanding and ease our worries.
Throughout the process, we have been communicating with Ms Leela who has done an excellent job by constantly updating us on our matters and kindly taking the time explaining things as they come along especially when we do not understand things. She always assures us that our matter is moving forward and there nothing to worry about.
Overall, even though our matter took longer than expected, we are pleased with the service that Mr Wahab and his team has offered to us and will definitely liaise with you again in the future if we ever come across matters that require legal aid.
