I’ve had a brilliant service from Farani Taylor’s. I needed to make a will. Everything was explained to me in detail about the types of will and it was tailored to my needs. The team especially Mr Zahur Chowdhry and Ms Qudsia were exceptional. At any point when I had queries I received a prompt reply from them. Everything was done very quickly and efficiently and costs were very reasonable. I would certainly use them again and recommend to all my friends & family. Thank you. Dr. Samara Afzal

My father and mother recently had their Islamic Wills together with trust planning prepared by Farani Taylor Solicitors, whom we found through the East London Mosque website. Zahur Chowdhury and Qudsia Hameed were very helpful, efficient and provided quick responses to our queries. The whole process was methodical, easy to understand and my parents were happy and satisfied with the service provided. We highly recommend them for those seeking to prepare Islamic Wills with estate planning. Mohammed Q.
