Shortlands Opiniões 

The solicitor was very helpful,

The firm is only interested in your monies not about your case and situation, when it comes to the real work which is personal and unique, they will try to avoid engaging any deeper or resolving in a super effective way unless you are wealthy and generous enough to keep donating your money to their "business". Which is their genuine interest to happily collect your money.
There are plenty of supports and legal advice over the U.K. including Oversea complicated cases ( like mine ) that you can reach for, for instance gov.uk, Rights of Women, Advocate and Free Family Representation & Advocacy Project - FFRAP where are truly human cares about your family situation and willing to extend their footage to assist on your case. Which I personally worked with all of these organizations and successfully won all the family cases.
Before you sending ridiculous money to a firm like this, think twice and research yourself, don't be fooled by the concept of " money = professionalism " especially you have not received any service yet but being asked to pay a sum in front.
Lastly, you are fully entitled to use "legal ombudsman" to retrieve your lost and ask for compensation if you were unfairly charged by this firm.

The experience and expertise of Shabana and the Shortlands Team was evident throughout the handling of my cases. They dealt with the hostile opposing legal team in a very tactile and decisive manner in correspondence, negotiations and in Court Hearings. Ultimately they achieved results which surpassed my expectations for matters relating to my divorce, financial settlement and access to my 3 children for which I sincerely can not thank them enough.
I highly recommend Shabana and her very professional team.

Shabana and the Shortlands team managed my case really well and in a professional manner, kept me updated which I really appreciated. Quick turnaround, calm and deliver highest quality standard service. Don't look anywhere else because the team definitely knows what they are doing and I would recommend to all my friends and family.
