Manak Solicitors Anmeldelser 

From first contact Manak Solicitors / Samir ensured we were contacted quickly and talked through the process and possible outcome.
At each stage Samir supported us and settled the case quickly and without further action.
I would definitely recommend Manak.

Samir was able to take a huge stress away from our family, by dealing with a train fare issue for us. Handled the whole thing in a day. We also appreciated his calm reassuring manner, and talking us through the process and what to expect - Thanks Samir.

The outcome of the case was a success I had less than 50% chance of winning but they handled it.
Thank you

The ethics of this company are highly questionable - my advice - AVOID THIS ORGANISATION.
Nosheen Bukhari, who works for Manak Solicitors as a solicitor & commissioner for Oaths, witnessed 6 statutory declarations on 23/4/24 for a planning application within the parish of Hever.
These 6 declarations were of highly dubious veracity and cast massive doubt about the integrity of Manak Solicitors.
I think the law society would take a dim view of this unprofessional activity.

Tanya acted for me in the sale of a house. She was always professional, helpful and responsive - for example, if I asked a question she would typically get back to me in less than an hour. I was very impressed in my dealings with her and would certainly recommend her to my friends.

My fare evasion case with Chiltern Railways was entirely brought about by my own stupidity and thoughtlessness. I had 2 years worth of fare-evaded tickets and I was petrified how my life was going to be affected by a criminal record because of this, something that hadn't sunk in until after I was caught one day without a valid ticket.
I contacted Samir the day after I was caught, during my initial consultation with him, he reassured me he could get the criminal conviction dropped, with only a settlement to pay.
After my expected prosecution letter came through 4 months later (Chiltern have a huge case backlog so the expected time to receive a letter is 3-6 months), Samir was able to get the case settled in 3 days, as planned, with the criminal conviction dropped and me paying Chiltern the money back that I owed + admin fees on their end - a very fair deal.
I'm relieved with the result Samir was able to give me and can now continue with my life with this all behind me, having fully learnt my lesson.

I absolutely cannot thank Samir and his team enough for settling my fare evasion case. My own poor decisions had led me to finding myself with a court hearing and this could have been potentially career ruining for me, plus causing me incredible anxiety. Samir was fantastic and so reassuring! He settled my case quickly and was supportive and kind. His words on our zoom call reassured me and I could appreciate his expertise straight away. I trusted him completely and was incredibly relieved when my case was settled. I would recommend anyone in the same situation to use Samir. His fee is completely reasonable for his service and so worth it, if not just to take away some anxieties.

Thank you again Samir and team for your hard work!

Arjan and his team acted for us in the purchase of a new build.
I cannot talk highly enough of their professionalism in dealing with every aspect of the purchase. I was particularly with the speed of response to emails and phone calls. Every contact was answered within a couple of hours, in many cases, by immediate return.
Many thanks for working with us.

Tanya looked after us seamlessly during my Aunts house sale. Thank you for your efficiency and diligence, it went without a hitch.

Although I had no intention of evading a fair, the strict liability offence that TFL were alleging still carries a criminal sanction and for me, professionally, that was potentially a real issue. Samir was thorough, responsive and very clearly knew his stuff. Once I had had an appointment with him, it took about an hour for him to resolve the matter, partly luck for it to be that quick I know, due to peoples availability, but still a huge relief for me. His fees, given his obvious experience, are very reasonable. I highly recommend him.

If you’re reading this you’re probably looking for the best lawyer after getting caught by TFL agents for fare evasion or tailgating. You didn’t know that you could face prosecution and a criminal record, you probably thought that the worst thing that could happen is paying a fine but after receiving a letter from TFL or reading forums you realized that it was way more serious than you thought and you’re probably panicking thinking about your future and the consequences that it could have.

You’re probably reading all the reviews and you’re conflicted because most of them are really good and some of them are quite bad, depicting Samir as arrogant, only looking for your money etc…

I was in the exact same situation, and I still decided to go forward with Samir. Does he come across as arrogant? I would say so. Was he rude to me? I will not lie, he was sometimes. Is he looking for your money? I mean yes, it’s his job at the end of the day, not his hobby. But more importantly, is he a great lawyer who helped me avoid prosecution with chances of success very low? Absolutely.

You need to understand that Samir is not a therapist. I understand that in your situation you’re probably looking for someone who is going to reassure you and tell you that everything will be okay but that is not his job. His job is not to make you feel good, reassure you or whatsoever. His job is to win your case and that is what he did when my chances of avoiding prosecution were really low. He is what we expect from a lawyer: someone who knows what he’s talking about, professional and simply good.

Samir is a really good lawyer who is very familiar with this kind of issue. I’d recommend him to anyone who is facing a prosecution or a potential prosecution with TFL. Just make sure to give him all the details that could help your case, prepare yourself for the meeting with him, and he’ll do everything he can to win your case/avoid prosecution.

Samir was calm and reassuring throughout. He was very honest and professional.

I contacted him at the weekend and he responded immediately. The case was settled out of court working within a very tight timescale.

I would recommend him to assist in this type of case.

Samir was absolutely phenomenal in resolving an issue for a family member. Rapid and clear communication, sensible cost options, worked efficiently and without judgement to make the case. And he delivered in rapid order! Cannot thank enough.

Train Fare Evasion - 100% Recommend Samir

Contacted Samir after being stopped by SE Railway. Samir was extremely quick to respond to my enquiry and work on the situation with a successful outcome in about a week.

I was worried about the whole process but Samir was professional and put me at ease. Price was also reasonable compared to other firms. 100% recommend.

Professional and effective
Handled the case with great precision
Made sure i was aware of key steps and procedures
Would definitely recommend
More than satisfied with the outcome

Excellent service, sorted it all out quickly and easily, and I was delighted with the outcome.

I would highly recommend Manak Solicitors. I worked with Samir who was effective, efficient and an excellent communicator. Very positive experience.

I cannot Recommend Manak Solicitors Orpington Kent, highly enough. Exceptional Legal Services, from the moment I spoke to Samir, I knew I was in capable hands. Their team provided me with personalised advice and support that was second to none. Don't hesitate to contact them, you will not regret it. Everything was carried out in a clear and precise manner.

Samir M. was very responsive, gave clear advice, and answered my questions well. After my initial consultation I felt equipped to make good decisions about my legal options.

I had an initial meeting with Elizabeth Gibson regarding my divorce and she and the team handled my case with ease, I would highly recommend them .
