Reviews and Testimonials
“Fahmida is a first-rate Lawyer whom I had the pleasure of working with on many occasions. She works tirelessly on every case, always putting the client’s needs first. Fahmida is very reliable and exceptionally organised on every case. When I am instructed by Fahmida, I will know that the case will be thoroughly prepared, and the client appropriately advised. Fahmida is a fierce opponent when negotiating on behalf of her clients, whilst also supporting them through the challenging court process.”
– John Asaad (Barrister at 33 Bedford Row)
“Since the very moment I met and worked with Fahmida, I found her to be thoughtful and committed to her job. She has demonstrated to me that even if thrown into the deep end, she is not afraid to ask questions, digest the information and use it to learn and develop her own skills and understanding. The commitment to learning is never in doubt and is reflected in her growth as a practising solicitor.” – Nathan Alleyne-Brown (Barrister at 2 Dr Johnson’s Buildings)
