Manak Solicitors Opiniões 

Manak Solicitors are truly the best. They successfully settled my TFL case outside of court with only six weeks of preparation. From start to finish, they were professional, understanding, and made what could have been a very stressful situation feel completely manageable. I’m so grateful to have found them, I always felt my case was in safe hands.

Sold and purchased a property with Manak’s earlier this year and were very pleased with the service. Arjan and his team are incredibly responsive and work very efficiently to ensure things are moving along. We had a tight deadline to meet before the stamp duty changed and the team really put in the work to make sure our sale was complete which saved us thousands!

We would highly recommend Arjan at Manak who we have found to be the most efficient conveyancing solicitor in our experience over the last 30 years buying and selling property.

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 without hesitation.

We used Manak Solicitors for the sale of our property.
We found their services to be extremely professional and precise.
Particular thanks to George Osman who dealt with all our queries promptly and efficiently.

We were very satisfied with the service, and would definitely use Manak again

Massive thanks for Manak Solicitor team including Liz and Natalie for completion of 2 transactions recently. very smooth operations, providing timely guidance. always a step ahead of solicitors on the other side.

I can’t thank Mr. Samir and his team enough — they are incredibly professional and experienced in handling TFL-related matters, and truly saved my life.

‼️Disappointment with other firms‼️
Before finding Mr. Samir’s firm, I had contacted another law firm, but the experience was extremely disappointing. They asked for my payslip right away, and I suspected they used my income level to decide what kind of service I would get. Because my income was modest, they assigned me a trainee solicitor.

That trainee solicitor started reading my documents only during our paid consultation, reading them word by word without preparation. He didn’t appear experienced, gave no opinions or direction, and the session ended up being a complete waste of my time.

‼️Efficient and professional service‼️
That’s when I decided to look for another firm — and luckily, I found Mr. Samir. I truly feel fortunate to have discovered his firm.

I first reached out on a Saturday, and the experience was excellent from the very beginning. I submitted all the necessary documents through their website, saving me the hassle of back-and-forth emails. I didn’t expect to be contacted the same day, but one of the team members reached out promptly and asked for additional documents. By Monday morning, they had already scheduled a consultation with me for that afternoon.

Throughout the entire process, their responses were always prompt, which made me feel genuinely cared for.

‼️Highly experienced‼️
From the very first consultation to every step afterward, everything was efficient and smooth. Mr. Samir had already reviewed and analyzed all my materials in advance. Thanks to his extensive experience, he quickly identified the key issues in my case and the most effective strategies to deal with them.

‼️Integrity and honesty‼️
Mr. Samir is a lawyer with true integrity. He didn’t try to offer false hope just to earn legal fees. In fact, he told me very honestly that my previous actions (I had written a letter to TFL on my own) had made the situation worse, and that my chances of success were only about 10%. He let me decide whether to proceed and even said he didn’t want to waste my money. That honesty truly impressed me. I still decided to move forward, and I’m glad I did.

‼️Reasonable pricing‼️
The firm offers various service packages at different price points, making it easier for people to choose according to their needs and financial situation.

My advice is: at a critical moment like this, don’t try to cut corners to save money. Many people contact law firms every day, so I didn’t hesitate to choose the fastest service option — and that decision proved to be the right one.

Lastly, I’m also grateful for the mental health expert Mr. Samir recommended. She was kind, patient, and incredibly supportive.

This can happen to anyone, really. I had got off the wrong stop and gone to the train official myself to let them know- I am not so long in the UK, so I assumed the best thing was to go and let them know about the situation. They took my details and I had got an email where they had pulled all my travel history from 1 year ago, asking me my entry and exit points (most of which I didn't remember), as well as some cancelled tickets which for some reason they assumed I travelled on. I went online and got a few recommendations on who to contact. Manak reached out and it was so very seamless from first conversation to settlement email. I really would recommend Samir, and the firm. It's a 4.99 star I am rating them and the only reason I am not giving a full 5 star is for some very minor reason.

A massive thank you to Samir. Through my own naivety, I had been caught fare evading.

I contacted Samir on Saturday afternoon and we were speaking on the Bank Holiday Monday morning. I chose Samir specifically due to the number of exceptional reviews he had and throughout the whole process Samir was nothing short of exceptional. He is clearly very knowledgable in this area, however he was also very empathetic throughout. Samir provided honest assessments, never over-promised and made assurances throughout. He said the process would take around 4 weeks and we were able to settle at around the 3 week mark.

I cannot thank Samir enough for his support and if I ever found myself in need of a solicitor again for other matters (I have very much learnt my lesson here) I wouldn't hesitate to contact him or the wider Manak team.

Dealt with Tanya at the Orpington office. Kept me informed throughout. Very professional. Ensured everything was done to ensure the process was completed in a timely manner. Would highly recommend.

I used Manak for both my sale and purchase and I cannot rate them highly enough. ALL staff were highly professional, efficient, friendly and accessible and ALWAYS responded quickly to my queries and concerns. I felt treated like a person not just another client and this meant a great deal to me. A HUGE thank you to Rosemary, Liz, Natalie, Agota & Rebecca for working so hard for me it is greatly appreciated.

We had a very good service throughout our property sale. We have used Manak previously and always been very happy with them.

Used Manak for recent house purchase and sale. Couldn’t recommend them enough! Natalie deserves a special mention for being so great! Thanks each of you for all your help

Was in a fare evasion with a hefty fine and potential criminal record. However with planning and quick action, I managed to completely avoid any court rulings thanks to Samir!

I had a fare evasion problem and I was really stressed. So I contacted manak solicitors. Had a conversation with Samir and he was extremely helpful and kind. He resolved my issue the same day as well. Extremely pleased!!

Many people mentioning Samir's arrogance aren't exaggerating. He often comes across as condescending and tends to interrupt while you're explaining. Throughout my fare evasion case, I didn’t feel supported—it felt as though he had already judged me before even taking on my situation.

For context, I was a university student who unknowingly traveled with an expired railcard. Instead of offering guidance, Samir mostly just forwarded emails from the train company with little communication beyond that. There were no phone calls, very minimal advice, and hardly any support. I often felt too nervous to ask questions, and after becoming increasingly frustrated, I eventually had to ask him to be a bit kinder in his approach.

What was particularly concerning was that he repeatedly insisted he didn’t need any further evidence because he had already "concluded" the matter. That left me feeling dismissed rather than represented.

My honest advice: take time to read reviews and find a lawyer who is not just focused on closing the case and getting paid, but someone who genuinely wants to help and support you through a difficult process.

Tanya worked on the sale of my late father’s house. She was very helpful, kept me advised of developments & completed the sale in good time. All round first class service.

Used Manaks both in the sale of my property and in the purchase of my current home. Found them very straightforward to deal with, efficient and timely in providing the service, and all in all a very positive experience. Will be very happy to use them for all my future legal needs.

Samir represented me regards my fare issues with a train company. He was very confident that we would be able to resolve with a favourable outcome for which I am greatful. Thoroughout He was very professional and reassuring. I would recomend this company to anyone in a similar position.
