Lawstop Reviews 

"I am incredibly grateful to Siobhan Taylor-Ward and the team at Lawstop for their amazing support with my housing case. Thanks to their hard work, dedication, and professionalism, they successfully overturned the council's decision and secured my Band A priority. Siobhan was very understanding of my health situation and kept me informed throughout the entire process. I highly recommend Lawstop for their excellent legal services. Thank you so much for changing my life!"

I cannot thank Faith Scott enough for all her help and support throughout our SEND Tribunal case for Secondary placement. From the very beginning, she was incredibly knowledgeable, honest, and professional. She always kept me updated, explained everything clearly, and was always available to answer my questions, which made a very stressful process much easier.

What I appreciated most was her honesty and integrity. She advised us that she didn’t need to attend either of our tribunal hearings, which saved us a significant amount of money. It was clear that she always acted in our best interests rather than her own.

Thanks to Faith’s expertise, careful preparation, and dedication, we achieved a successful outcome for our son. He was able to secure a school placement that is suitable for his educational needs, and we are truly grateful for everything Faith did to help us achieve that outcome.

I would highly recommend Faith Scott to anyone looking for a solicitor who is compassionate, trustworthy, honest, and exceptionally skilled in SEND law. Thank you, Faith, for everything you have done for our family.

I would highly recommend Lawstop. They will be with you through thick and thin. Dark and light. I had been working with Rianna Lee and trust me she will get you to a better place. I was stuck in a studio apartment with 3 children for 4yrs and Rianna Lee really did push for me. In a matter of time the council offered a 3 bedroom apartment. Im pleased. Plz give Lawstop a try thank you

I would highly recommend Carla Silvi for anyone seeking immigration assistance. Carla was thorough, professional, and highly knowledgeable throughout my visa application process. She kept me updated at every stage, ensuring I was informed and reassured from start to finish.

Her attention to detail and clear communication made what could have been a stressful process feel straightforward and well-managed. Thanks to her expertise and dedication, my visa application was handled smoothly and a positive decision was achieved without any issues.

I am extremely grateful for Carla's support and would not hesitate to recommend her services to others. Thank you, Carla, for your outstanding assistance and professionalism.

I highly recommend Lawstop. They supported us through our SEND Tribunal case and were absolutely fantastic from start to finish. They stepped in at a time when we felt completely stuck, with very little knowledge or experience of the process.

Their professionalism, responsiveness, expertise, and genuine commitment to helping us were exceptional. They explained everything clearly, guided us every step of the way, and gave us the confidence we needed during a very stressful time.

I honestly don't think we could have achieved the outcome we did without their support. I would recommend Lawstop without hesitation to anyone who needs help with education law or SEND cases. I'll always be grateful for everything they did for our family.

My English is limited but they are very great in every single thing. They really know what they are doing…Very very helpful
Thank you so much Fransesca and Rihanna for always being there for us. So grateful

Carla has been handling my case throughout and I couldn't recommend her enough. She has been very professional and helpful throughout the process. She was on top of her work and just would recommend her and the firm to anyone.

LawStop took over my unlawful eviction case in 2024 when Howells solicitors in Sheffield had to close their housing department due to cut backs on government funding.
At first (after being passed onto 2-3 different solicitors in that same firm of LawStop), I did think the solicitor representing me were quite good until she became none responsive and not replying to my emails.
I accepted an offer by a previous landlord for unlawful eviction in January of this year (2026), the offer included my reasonable legal costs to be paid, as well as compensation which has been paid and is currently in lawstop’s clients safe.
Since January of this year I have been waiting for lawstops billing department to send my legal bill to the opponents solicitors Abby Scott Law, and wait to see if they agree if it amounts to my reasonable costs before becoming payable.
I have been trying to get some answers as to a timeline and when my compensation can be transferred to me because it’s already been going on since February 2023.
I were told numerous times that the statutory charge (legal aid), will not apply to me as my opponent has agreed to pay my reasonable legal fees, therefor there will be no need for LawStop to ask legal aid to apply for it.
My financial situation went from ok, to bad, now worse and this unlawful eviction is the main culprit which caused most of the mess I find myself in today.

All I want is what is rightfully mine, the compensation I accepted which is nothing compared to what I lost during my unlawful eviction.
Imagine coming home after being away for a couple of weeks only to find you can’t get in as your locks have been changed. You look around outside the property and can see your personal belongings half burned in burning bins in the back yard, and then opening the letter box you see other people’s foot ware on the stair case opposite the inside of your door. The landlord moved other tenants in to your flat and discarded every single item that belonged to you, and stole your sofa and other furniture purchased whilst living there.
Imagine on that freezing February evening having nowhere to go and becoming homeless for weeks before finding accommodation in another town far away from your elderly parents, not knowing anyone and I have been fighting this case since then.
LawStop have refuse to give me an interim payment to help me out and yet they don’t even reply to my queries regarding any of the issuer mentioned.
LawStop need to sort these issues out because it isn’t fair to treat us like I feel Iv been treat.
Kind regards

Lawstop was invaluable at holding the local authority to account regarding my child's SEN provision. Our experience was that the local authority was either wholly incompetent or deliberately attempting to withhold provision as some sort of short sighted cost saving exercise. Lawstop secured Legal Aid for us and got the local authority to provide the provision as stated in the EHCP.

Guy is brilliant

I cannot recommend this solicitors firm highly enough. From the outset, they took complete charge of my case, providing expert guidance, clear communication, and unwavering support throughout what was an incredibly stressful process.
Their efficiency and professionalism were outstanding. Knowing that my case was in such capable hands removed a huge burden from my shoulders and allowed me to focus my time and energy where it was needed most – supporting my child.
The team’s knowledge of SEND law was exceptional, and they consistently demonstrated genuine care and commitment to achieving the best possible outcome. I always felt informed, supported, and confident that they were fighting for my child’s rights.
If you are looking for a dedicated, knowledgeable, and highly effective SEND education solicitor, I would not hesitate to recommend them.
Thank you Gregg!!!!

We have had great service, support and advice. A really dedicated team who are proactive and passionate about their work.

Guy at lawstop did excellent work handling my case. I am incredibly grateful for his professionalism, clear communication, and the swift conclusion he achieved on my behalf.

I cannot recommend Bruna Geada, Faith Scott and the Education Team at Lawstop highly enough.

For over five years, I have been fighting to secure the right education and support for my daughter. It has been an incredibly stressful, emotional and often overwhelming journey. There were many times when I felt exhausted and wondered if I would ever get to the finish line.

From the moment Bruna became involved, I felt supported. She was always professional, approachable and incredibly patient. No matter how many questions I had or how worried I was, she took the time to explain everything clearly and never made me feel like a burden. Her communication was excellent, and she always made sure I understood what was happening and what the next steps would be.

What stood out most was that Bruna genuinely cared. I never felt like just another case number. She understood how important this case was to my family and worked tirelessly to achieve the best possible outcome. Her preparation, attention to detail and commitment were exceptional throughout.

I would also like to thank Faith Scott. It was clear throughout the case that I was in very capable hands. Faith and Bruna made an outstanding team, and I always felt confident that they were fighting for the right outcome for my daughter.

Thanks to their hard work and dedication, my daughter has now secured an appropriate educational placement and can finally move forward with the support she needs. After such a long battle, that means everything to us.

The entire Lawstop Education Team has been fantastic. They were knowledgeable, compassionate, responsive and genuinely invested in helping us achieve the best possible outcome.

Bruna and Faith, thank you for all your hard work, support and kindness. You have made a real difference to my daughter's future and I will always be grateful.

And on a lighter note, if Bruna hadn't taken on my case, I suspect I would still be sitting here trying to open Local Authority secure emails and wondering what on earth they said!

Thank you again for everything.

Mustaiza Choudary solicitor was a huge help. Very friendly, very efficient, very co-operative, very thorough, very accommodating and supportive and very informative when needed. Ensured I hadn’t missed anything and went above and beyond for my case resulting in my case being won!! I’m so grateful for her help and support and would recommend and use her again if ever needed.

They are the best in the world for helping people who is struggling with homelessness and housing problems thanks for Lawstop and many thanks again

I would like to express my deepest gratitude to my solicitor, Sameara Maqbool, for the incredible support and professionalism she showed throughout my case. She went above and beyond to make sure I was housed in the best possible way and took exceptional care of me during a very difficult time in my life.
Sameara was always kind, understanding, and truly dedicated to helping me. Her attention to detail, clear communication, and genuine compassion made a world of difference. I always felt that she had my best interests at heart, and I’m so grateful to have had her by my side.
Thank you, Sameara, for your outstanding work and for being such a reliable source of help and reassurance when I needed it most.

Gregg has been extremely supportive, knowledgeable and responsive throughout a very stressful process.
He has taken the time to explain things clearly, kept me updated regularly and has always approached matters in a balanced and professional way.
I’ve really appreciated both his legal knowledge and his understanding approach throughout.
I would definitely recommend Gregg and Lawstop to other families needing support with education and SEND matters.

We have been supported by Gregg at lawstop for a period of time now following a difficult process around supporting a young person with gaining the appropriate support within her EHCP and well, what can I say other than he has been amazing.
Gregg has been such great support, clear around how he communicates, understands the processes that need to be followed and most importantly cares.
Gregg has gone above and beyond for our young persona and I couldn't recommend him enough.
