Lauren and the rest of her team couldn’t have been more happy to help and communicated professionally and openly throughout the whole process of selling our late father’s property.

Sarah from Switalskis was brilliant

We used Switalskis for both our sale and purchase and Sarah was fantastic. This was a difficult protracted chain and Sarah always kept us informed, provided very speedy responses on every enquiry or issue we had and the work was done very diligently. We are pleased we had such a good service on our side at a very stressful time.

Anyone going through family court would be incredibly fortunate to have a solicitor like her by their side.


After six long years in the family court system, my case finally came to an end at my final hearing. Those six years were some of the most emotionally draining and challenging years of my life. Anyone who has been through family court will understand how overwhelming, stressful, and isolating that journey can feel.

For my final hearing, I was represented by Sumaiyah Mohammad, and I truly cannot put into words how grateful I am that she was the person standing beside me on that day.

Even though she only represented me for that final hearing, the difference she made was enormous. From the moment she stepped into my case, she treated it with care, understanding, and genuine compassion. She listened, she understood the weight of the six-year journey behind me, and she made me feel like my voice and my experience truly mattered.

Walking into that courtroom after everything I had been through was incredibly emotional, but having her beside me gave me a sense of calm and reassurance I hadn’t felt in a long time. She was prepared, confident, and completely dedicated to doing the very best for me. In that moment, after so many years of fighting to be heard, I finally felt like I had someone truly advocating for me.

She helped bring closure to a chapter of my life that had taken so much from me, and I will always be grateful for the role she played in helping me finally move forward.

I only wish I had found her sooner in my journey. Anyone going through family court would be incredibly fortunate to have a solicitor like her by their side.

Very highly recommended, Lindsay Zabukas

Lindsay Zabukas was recommended to me for the conveyancing part of my new home purchase. She was prompt, transparent and efficient with all aspects and she was very easy to talk with on the phone. Lindsay showed complete professionalism throughout and I would highly recommend her services to others requiring a conveyancing solicitor. Thank you so much for making my difficult move a reality, Lindsay. I absolutely love my new home!

Fantastic conveyancing service. Highly recommend

We had a great experience throughout both the purchase and sale processes with Lindsay and Ruksar, who were exceptionally responsive and supportive. Our emails and calls were always answered quickly, and everything was handled in a very professional manner.
This year we sold our leasehold property. We have been through a very difficult and stressful time, but we were supported all along this sale.
We will recommend them to our friends, and if we move home again, we will absolutely use their conveyancing service.

Thank you so much for all your support, Lindsay and Ruksar!
