Totally Fantastic & Very Professional

I used these guys due to a personal problem / issue I was having and they are worth every penny! What a great outfit these guys honestly are my solicitor was Sophie Bell but I was always in contact with Rob Borwick if I needed any advice or just a chat regarding certain situations. I 100% would recommend this company! Sophie Bell was amazing and took time to see my evidence and read everything as well as talking to me where I felt understood and respected. Sophie Bell is such a lovely and kind woman I am so grateful that she represented me, the trial couldn’t have gone any better than what it did... Thank you Sophie you were amazing... And thank you Rob, I know at the start I became annoying but in your professional and kind way you relaxed me, so thank you whole heartedly 😊👍

Service

When ever your arrested there’s no way of feeling positive or reassured but in a moment of darkness my night in shinning armour Emma was sent to the rescue who gave me sound and reassuring advice. I highly recommend in asking for her specifically if and when you need legal aid from the station to court

Excellent Service

Mr Robert Borwick at ABV provided an excellent service from start to finish. I was given regular updates on the case and felt completely safe and relaxed and everything was dealt with at a very professional level. I highly recommend Mr Borwick and ABV for a service that goes that extra mile compared to other firms. When dealing with Mr Borwick it is clear to anyone that he is a gentleman of the highest caliber and will not let you down.

ABV are an Amazing, Brilliant and Vigilant Law Firm!

ABV Solicitors are without doubt the best Solicitors I have come across, I have no regrets in selecting them as my representatives. They are an organised, articulate, committed and supportive group of working law professionals, all fully educated in the law. I would highly advise anyone in an awkward or bad situation with the law to utilise ABV solicitors for the best possible outcomes. I would specifically like to thank Solicitor ‘Ms Ashley Tibble’ whom I believe to be one of the best amongst the ABV group, someone who worked tirelessly to support my needs and queries, giving me great advise, support and communication. ABV were incredibly detailed and informative, offering me a high level of professionalism, granting me the best possible outcome! Highly recommended!!

Case Discontinued

My partner was arrested for serious criminal offences and was held in prison. We instructed Somsul Hoque from ABV Solicitors privately. Somsul was very friendly and approachable and provided us with a first class service. Somsul was very proactive when dealing with my partner's case and kept us fully informed. Somsul was great value for money and we would highly recommend Somsul and use him again.

I was recommended Anwar from this set of solicitors as he had represented a few of my friends children. I was very impressed with his service. My younger brother was arrested at Maidenhead station and he attended for him. The police let him go without charge so I am really happy. Thank you Anwar for keeping my family updated also

I was represented in a DV case by Sophie Bell and Zaki Hashmi where i was accused of CA. Thanks to their methodical approach, i won my appeal. I was really impressed by how seriously each of them took my situation. Each of them worked through the weekend and evening and were extremely responsive to my emails and messages. As someone who had never been in trouble with the police before, selecting a solicitor was extremely daunting but i am delighted with my choice and can recommend them to anyone.

I was represented by Anwar in 2018 at Maidenhead station. I been on police bail for 1 year over and for something I not do. This caused me a lot of stress and anxiety. Police take my passport and I was not allowed to see my family in my country. Anwar helped me so much. 2 weeks ago the police took no action. Thank you Anwar for your help I will greatly recommend ABV.

After the home raiding and arrest of my son and his girlfriend I was very anxious and unsure of what to do but was referred to Fergus Harrington of ABV solicitors.
Fergus was very helpful and quick to get to the police station to help them out and kept me updated at every opportunity he got.
The charges of supply of class A and B drugs, money laundering, possession of an offensive weapon and assault on an emergency worker were given and both were unfortunately put on remand due to the severity of crimes and quantity of drugs that was on their person/property.
Fergus got to work very quickly and we had one out on bail/electronic monitor in no time and the other with a guilty plea to remain in the remand ctr until the trial date by his own choice.
Fergus worked tirelessly with our family and the defendants and was always there to help answer any questions and give us the support that was needed.
By the time trial came, Fergus and his team along with the barrister had advised us of the possible outcomes and convictions that they may receive which was anywhere up to 7 years.
Fergus worked tirelessly along with the barrister and got one defendant acquitted of all charges and the other (my son) done everything he was advised to do by Fergus and after 10.5 months of being on remand the sentencing was finally done with as no trial was needed in the end and so now only has another month to serve and with Fergus’ help should be released on electronic monitor any day now.
I can not express how much Fergus made this terrible and distressing time for the defendants and us family members as easy as possible with the help to understand the very complex and complicated legal system and will forever be grateful to him and his team at ABV for helping us.
We had the best outcomes possible for the severity of the charges and I wholeheartedly believe that if it were not for him and the support he provided we would not have had the same outcome that we did.
I thank you Fergus and ABV, and to anyone reading this I would 100% advise you to use the firm in any legal matters you need.
