I can’t recommend highly enough. Going through a divorce is never easy, but they made the entire process as smooth and stress-free as possible. From the very beginning, they was incredibly professional, compassionate, and attentive to my needs.VIPAN KUMAR
I would like to say a big Thankyou to Gurjit at Charles and Co for assisting me in resolving my divorce and financial matters. Gurjit went above and beyond to get me through a really difficult time during the breakdown of my marriage. She had been really supportive throughout the process and made sure that I got through my divorce proceedings and financial matters quickly. I am really grateful and would highly recommend Gurjit to represent any individual going through a hard time and looking to be freed from a difficult divorce.Reema Osman
Gurjit came recommended to me to help support with my divorce case. Using Charles&Co was the best decision i ever made as they have been nothing but professional, knowledgeable, transparent, efficient and had my best interests at heart from the very beginning. Gurjit and Jeevan looked after me during my matrimonial proceedings and their knowledge and experience helped navigate what should have been a simple matter (but turned into a very complex and messy one!) with a level of care and support that was needed at such a overwhelming time.

Jag handled my civil matters in a very professional and transparent way, engaging the most experienced barristers when needed and explaining complex legal matters in a way that normal people could understand! I couldn’t recommend this firm enough, they got the job done with a better outcome than i expected all whilst saving me thousands by being efficient and proactive in their ways of work.Sharan Soul
