What clients say
Words cannot express how happy I am with the way Anantha dealt with my whole divorce. Hats off to her. She is true to her words. Everything happened as she said it would despite it being the situation that it is now with Covid-19. Before I chose Anantha (on the recommendation of family and friend) I had spoken to two other firms but Anantha had this aura about her that just drew me to her. She listened and listened ever so patiently. Any time I needed her she was there. I didn’t have to chase her up about my case. She was always on top of it. Honestly, I would recommend Anantha any time
The past few years Anantha ThiruNathan (Consultant Solicitor) has been extremely helpful to go through the process. The way she handled the whole situation was very professional. I have to say I am very impressed with the service I received by her. I will always come back to her if I need support with legal procedures and recommend her to anyone. She is a competent solicitor and has always time to listen. She was always polite, and I received professional advice throughout. She would always keep me up to date with any information and the proceedings outcomes. There was never a point where I was surprised, as she has always prepared me for any outcome. I will always be thankful for the hard work of Anantha ThiruNathan.
