Police questions

Mr Rathour met me at the police station to represent me while being questioned by police on a family matter,
He quickly put my mind at ease after telling him about my social anxiety issue's, he was absolutely fantastic in regards of quickly asking me for details about the case , before meeting with the police prior to me being questioned, without asking for advice he advised the following, we write out a statement, leading to a no comment interview, and I really need to say that this was a quick efficient and a effective approach to my needs and my case, Mr Narinder S Rathour has a very friendly demeanour with a quick witted response to bullying tactics from the police officers in question,
I would like to thank Mr Rathour from the bottom of my heart
Kind regards Emma Louise

Outstanding

I honestly can’t recommend Mr. Rathour highly enough. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. I found myself in a very difficult and distressing situation involving an ex-partner, and I was absolutely mortified.

Mr. Rathour was professional, non-judgemental, and incredibly supportive throughout. As someone who suffers from anxiety, I really appreciated how he put my mind at ease. During my voluntary interview, I became very upset, and he showed genuine compassion and care.

Thanks to his guidance and expertise, I received a No Further Action (NFA) outcome and have no marks on my DBS. I’m truly grateful for everything he’s done.

Tenacious, thorough and brilliant

I literally having never gone thru a experience like this before had no idea what to expect. Narinder and his team were there every step of the way guiding, supporting and being amazingly awesome. They will turn every stone in their job to make sure nothing is left out of your defense and will back your corner.

Efficient, tenacious and thorough.

Narinder guided me thru everything with a reassuring and knowledgeable manner. He made sure I was not left in the dark. He is a amazing representation who left no stone unturned and was always available to quell any qualms. He took special care that I understood due to my autism making comprehension difficult.

Very professional from start to finish. This was a complicated family matter, that Melissa Portlock took on. Melissa informed me of every step and took time to listen to me also. If you are looking for a solicitor to represent you in family matters then I very highly recommend Melissa.
