Excellent team and great service!
I had a great experience at this firm, I dealt with Arjun and Suman from the Gravesend office who helped me get in before the stamp duty deadline. The team were extremely responsive and collaborative, what I expected to be a stressful process was made super simple and seamless.
Huge thank you to the team and great service guys!

Northern Rail case settled out of court in 3 days
This review is for a different branch.
I never write reviews but I have to let those who happen to be in need of legal assistance to resolve disputes/ fare evasion/ delay repay claims with Northern Rail know that Samir at Manak Solicitors is your go to man without any doubt.
I came across very positive reviews of Manak Solicitors on the UK rail forum and I am so glad I contacted them. The reviews were 100% legit.
My story in brief:
I contacted Samir at 7.30am on a Saturday morning, he called me back in the next 2 minutes and reassured me that he would settle my delay repay drama with Northern Rail (my fault entirely that I got myself into this mess). I had a zoom meeting with Samir on Monday morning to go through the case and it was successfully settled out of court on Thursday (today).
I can't put it in words how grateful I am to Samir. He has totally delivered what he said he would in just 3 days, even though he didn't promise such a quick turnaround. If you are feeling anxious about your situation with Northern Rail (or any other train company as I believe he deals with all of them), I can highly recommend Samir at Manak Solicitors without hesitation.

I had a very positive experience with Manak Solicitors. Samir was professional, reassuring, and extremely helpful throughout the entire process. He explained things clearly, responded promptly, and made a very stressful situation feel more manageable.

A professional, efficient and excellent service!
This review is for a different branch.
Manak Orpington have provided conveyancing for two of our property sales and purchases.
They are extremely professional. We have never needed to chase them during the process. They were adaptable to any 'spanner in the works' or delays that occured and work to a quick timeline. Thank you to Tanya Robinson!

Fare Evasion
This review is for a different branch.
I just want to say a huge thank you to Samir! he’s been absolutely amazing throughout the whole process. My case was really difficult, and honestly, I thought there was no way it could be settled out of court. It felt impossible. But Samir listened carefully to everything I had to say, gave me honest and straightforward advice, and never gave me false hope.
As soon as he got a response from TfL, he called me straight away to let me know they’d decided to give me a warning instead of taking it further. I couldn’t believe it. I’m honestly so grateful, and I would 100% recommend him to anyone looking for an evasion solicitor. He genuinely knows what he’s doing and actually cares.

Thank you to Arjan and his team for a seamless experience on a recent property transaction. Dealing with them was an absolute pleasure and their professionalism and ability made light work of a transaction that my previous solicitor struggled with for weeks.
I rarely write reviews but the team here are operating on a different level and being a business owner having proper professionals like this in place provides a great sense of confidence and comfort which I did not have with previous solicitors and highly recommend them.
