Testimonials

“...Luke Edwards was the only solicitor who took the time to listen and understand our situation, provide his professional opinion and give very valuable advice throughout a very stressful time all while keeping the costs aspect under control. We have won one of two cases now and I feel like without Luke's help and support, we would have not made it this far.”


‘My dealings were with Luke Edwards. He had carefully read the documents concerning my matter and therefore was quickly able to grasp what was a complicated issue. He was very thoughtful and clear in his advice to me, and wrote extremely good letters on my behalf.'
