Shahnaz Farahi

Senior Associate

Shahnaz farahi has helped me tremendously over the course of several years dealing with protracted legal issues arising from a share of freehold in a listed notting hill building. She balances her specialist knowledge of the law with a practical and common sense approach. I would not have survived as long as I have in the situation I have experienced... Quite simply, she is brilliant. ”
- Patricia Lee

For ten years now I and other members of this firm have been working with shahnaz farahi... Shahnaz has a comprehensive hold on the law and processes involved, a ready understanding of how to get the best out of the experts she instructs which makes it easy from our point of view to provide what is required in good time. ”
- Bruce Maunder Taylor

Shahnaz could not have been more professional, clever, supportive and kind. We worked together for over a year, and, thanks to her, a resolution was eventually found to my case. I would certainly go straight to her again if I should have a similar legal problem in the future. ”
