Testimonials
Brilliant outcome! The client will be happy that the Claimant’s claim was dismissed. Thank you for all your help with this case. Appreciate your advice pre-trial and then your telephone call after the trial explaining the outcome of the case. I look forward to working with you again soon.
I instructed Wajid to act for a small business in a consumer dispute that proceeded to trial. The case involved some challenging issues, both with the allegations and voluminous evidence presented. Wajid was able to grasp the key issues and present a calm yet forceful case that led to a successful outcome at trial. My clients were impressed with his performance and very pleased with the outcome. I would recommend.
Wajid’s preparation to our case was shown from the outset. Pre-trial conversations to discuss evidence and strategy helped us build the case and understand what was going to be argued on the day. There were some tricky liability issues within, but with Wajid’s support and legal expertise, we managed to overcome these and Wajid provided a perfect outcome. The Client has also expressed his satisfaction with Wajid’s work stating he was ‘impressed with his professionalism and strategic approach'.
