Excellent legal advice

I was very impressed by Chloe's professional attitude, her swift responses to my queries, the way she grasped the details of my case, and the clarity of her explanations. I have no hesitation in recommending Southgate Solicitors to anyone seeking legal advice and services.

Rajan from Southgate Solicitors

I had Rajan from Southgate Solicitors on my case in a last minute appointment before the hearing last year. It was so frustrating going through the divorce where the other party's solicitor behaved extremely difficult and nasty, I can't imagine how things could be without Rajan. I would like to say big thank you to Rajan for helping me through the darkest time in my life, really appreciated everything from you!

Intelligent legal advice

I have just concluded a legal matter with Sonia Rola. She was extremely efficient, intelligent and a clear communicator. Altogether a very worthwhile experience. I have no hesitation in recommending the firm and in particular Sonia.

Sonia Rola

Sonia is currently working on my family law case and is an absolute pleasure to deal with. On my journey to finding a divorce lawyer I have never met anyone quite like Sonia. She is exceptionally efficient, professional and extremely dedicated to her work yet at the same treats you with patience, kindness and compassion always, however stressful the situation.
Sonia has also represented me in court and was so understanding and supportive through this difficult experience, she really put me at ease. She remained composed, calm and precise to the point and achieved a fabulous result and I could not be a happier.
I never thought working with a lawyer for my divorce could be pleasurable and I would highly recommend Sonia to anyone who needs a family law lawyer.
Thank you for your continuing hard work Sonia.

The best law firm in town!

About 6 months ago I was in desperate need for a solictor to represent me. The law firm that typically represented the women in my circumstance proferred that "no law firm (in the UK) would be able to get me legal aid." So I approached Southgate Solicitors as that was the first one that came up from the list. I was running out of time as the first court hearing was literally weeks away. Rajan Thandi, my solictor, called me in 3 weeks to tell me that I was granted legal aid. So technically, Southgate solicitors can be rendered as the BEST law firm (in the UK). Also, my barrister, Delphine Breese-Laughran, was equally as supportive and meticulous. I highly recommend Southgate Solicitors to anyone who is looking for conscientious representation.

Sonia is exceptional

I have had the privilege of discovering Sonia on my journey to finding a good family law solicitor, and I knew straight away that I wanted Sonia to take on my case. She was direct, open and to the point. Sonia is the most professional and reliable solicitor I have come across.

I have also had the luxury of being represented by Sonia on one occasion at court and I was even more impressed. For the first time in many court hearings, I felt supported during the stressful experience of attending court. Sonia made me feel secure with her knowledge and expertise and she was responsive to my needs. The way she navigated the court experience from beginning to end was exceptional. Sonia went above and beyond what I would have expected to make my voice heard during the hearing.

In my opinion, Sonia is not only more skilled than some of the barristers who had previously represented me; but more importantly her approach was far more personal as she made the effort to listen. I felt heard and understood for the first time. Thanks to Sonia, we walked away with a victory on this day and I couldn't have been happier. However, her efforts didn't stop there and Sonia graciously helped me with further paperwork pro bono! I cannot thank her enough for her generosity.

I am continuously grateful for her constant hard work and diligence which always pays off. I would highly recommend Sonia for any family law matters.

Hasan Hadi

Hasan has expertly guided me through a very stressful divorce which has included complicated child and financial matters. All is now settled and I am eternally grateful to Hasan for the outcome. He is extremely dedicated, professional and knowledgeable. I trusted him from the start and this never swayed. He always responded promptly to questions I had and kept the essential communication going where necessary. I would highly recommend him to anyone going through a similar situation to me. He is exceptional.

Chloë - southgate solicitors

When working with Chloë I had been blown away by her professionalism, knowledge and helpful attitude towards all of her work. Chloë helped me on a number of occasions including with my Will and Deed of Name Change. She made the whole experience quick and smooth from start to finish.

I would not hesitate to recommend Chloë Rodway for any future legal advice and services.

Chloe Rodway

Chloe handled our probate case so professionally from start to finish, included the legal oversight of the house sale and distribution of funds to beneficiaries. It was a complex Will and we will be forever grateful for her thoughtful, caring and professional handling of all matters. We would highly recommend using her for any legal needs you may have.

Family Law Solicitors

I previously had 2 other family law solicitors. Unfortunately, they didn't help with any progress dealing with my divorce matter after so many years. Finally, I found Sonia from Southgate Solicitors. She is kind, helpful, quick and responsive in solving all the problems. She is excellent. Thank you, Sonia for all the great help.

in safe & trusted hands

Hasan, I would like to say a huge thank you for all the help, support and guidance during my fathers divorce. In the outset we thought this would simply be a straight forward situation with a quick conclusion, however the other side seemed fairly adamant at drawing this out with a lot of nonsense and repetitive requests, thankfully your no nonsense approach and push back on many occasions have been greatly appreciated. These times can be hugely stressful for everyone concerned, however due to your knowledge and professionalism throughout the process my father felt safe and comfortable knowing he was in safe hands, whilst receiving the best legal advice possible.
It;s easy finding a solicitor but finding a firm which has compassion for your situation is not so easy, I firmly believe we made the perfect choice as you have been there through every step of the way, providing the right guidance.
A big thank you Hasan,Southgate Solicitor's are highly recommended and have been extremely efficient in handling my fathers case.

A law firm with a difference

A law firm with a difference. Mr Hadi’s knowledge and expertise is unmatched to any other. He has a no nonsense approach to all family law issues; providing prompt and accurate assistance whilst sensitively navigating clients through any difficulties faced be it in financial ancillary relief proceedings, child arrangements or divorce. I had quite complex proceedings and I am truly thankful to have received Southgate Solicitors’ highly competent assistance in all three matters. The firm is modern and forward thinking and there is a real dedication all round in ensuring the client is treated as an individual; the ease of how well communication is facilitated being an example of the same. Thank you so very much to Mr Hadi for all the support given to me throughout. I highly recommend Southgate Solicitors for the wonderful service they provide and how well they provide it.
