Thanks for the wonderful service found in the website. I’m able to look and engage solicitor David Nayar to assist in my case. The service rendered was impeccable and really worth recommending to others. I’ve encountered a few bad experience on previous recommendation by friends.I was glad and impressed by the service found in the website.
I went to see Mr Nayal and he was very helpful for the time that I consulted him.
The case has been resolved.
He was extremely helpful and friendly. I now consider him my official lawyer, should I need any further legal services!
I’m still working on the case, and I think that he gave me really good advice.
