DFA Law LLP Reviews 

Hannah was first class. Highly recommend

My wife and I have used DFA Law for a number of years to advise on different stages of a long-running and complex case relating to a property developer's offer for a lease to build new flats on the roof of the building in which live and own a share in the freehold company. Throughout this time DFA's lawyers have provided consistently sound and reliable advice at very reasonable and affordable rates.

Matters came to a head for us just before last Christmas, when we found ourselves - without any notice or consultation - effectively being coerced by the directors of the company and the developer to agree to a massively undervalued premium for the space, and to accept a substantially reduced and non-negotiable compensation offer for surrendering our leaseholder rights and living with the disruption of a 1-2 year build directly above our flat (with a 2-week ultimatum over the public holidays to accept the latter offer or it would be withdrawn).

In the circumstances we turned again to DFA Law to help us and one of the partners, Paul Currie, stepped into the breach immediately. Paul was exemplary in leading us through that intense period and beyond, helping us to understand our rights and options, and acting on our behalf in all dealings with the legal representatives of the company and its individual directors, and the developer. Paul's expertise in the relevant law, extensive experience of litigation, professionalism, and empathetic approach helped us to steer a course through the following 9 months, and eventually arriving at the best outcome available to us, while at the same time acting as a calm and reassuring influence at a time of high stress for us..

We would unhesitatingly recommend Paul and his team to anyone finding themselves in a similar situation - alone and facing oppressive, coercive and prejudicial behaviour towards them by entities and individuals with strong vested interests and with powerful corporate resources available to them.

Emma was thorough, patient and helpful in her support through our divorce. She answered questions promptly, and in a way that cut through the 'legal-ese'. I really appreciated her help at this very stressful time in my life.

I’ve had to deal with many lawyers, (of various disciplines), over the years and Paula Futer is exceptional and by far the best I've worked with.
I wish I had found her at the beginning of my Divorce. She is straightforward and down-to-earth. She approaches her work with good humour and efficiency, (unlike my previously chosen, self-proclaimed, "top divorce lawyers"). I am most grateful I found her in the end.

I contacted DFA recently when my brother died suddenly and I had to deal with his estate. They took the load off my shoulders which was a relief at this trying time. Katherine, the solicitor who dealt with John’s estate was a great help and kept in touch with me as the process progressed. I dealt with DFA a number of years ago when my parents died and they did a great job then which was why I returned again. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to others.

The support we received was excellent. Documentation was completed quickly and any queries answered. I would highly recommend their service!

Great friendly service. Very knowledgeable, and handled my divorce efficiently and in good time.

Very professional service, honest appraisals and impartial advice. All you would expect from an outstanding company of law professionals.
Cannot recommend highly enough!

DFA handled the sale of our company in an extremely professional and timely manner.
Their expertise gave us comfort during the whole process from start to finish.
Many thanks to Kirsty and her team.

Very supportive team who looked after me and my son through a difficult period.

I have used other firms in the past, which were unprofessional and lazy in their handling of 2 sales in the past.

I was recommended DFA Law by a good friend of mine and I can honestly say Jade Price is the best conveyancing solicitor you will ever meet.

Since April 2023 I have used DFA Law twice. Once to sell a flat and the other to buy a house. Jade Price handled both cases. She is professional, extremely diligent in the enquiries she sends to the opposition, but most of all a lovely person to talk to.

Jade answered all my emails, phone calls and queries within a few minutes to a couple of hours. She always put my mind at ease.

I will be using her services again in the future. Honestly, if you want to sell/buy a property, please ask for Jade and you will NOT be disappointed.

Hannah Furr helped us on the understanding of IHT planning with trust funds for grandchildren and rewriting our Wills. We found DFA Law and Hannah to be very helpful and knowledgeable and made it much easier for us to understand. A quick and reasonable service. I’d have no hesitation in recommending them.

The empathy, advice and guidance offered by Michael Nadin in relation to a settlement agreement was excellent, especially as there was a very short time frame involved. Highly recommended, professional service.

As a family and as a local Northamptonshire business we would recommend Hannah and the whole DFA team without hesitation.
Hannah has recently guided us through several quite challenging matters namely, personal wills and lasting powers of attorney and the drawing up of a trust document to enable a group of strangers to come together and purchase a retirement apartment for a recently retired Christian missionary in her 80s who on return from Uganda needed a safe and secure roof over her head.
I cannot praise Hannah and the team highly enough.
A mention also for Paul Currie who a year or two ago sensitively and with complete success guided us through a tricky litigation situation involving a rogue law firm in the West Country.
Our thanks to all the DFA team.

Hannah Furr has been absolutely excellent since we've worked together. She is informative, helpful, friendly, efficient and more important takes my needs into account. She is always there for advice and help and is very accessible, despite her very busy work.

DFA law has helped us out with so many issues - business and personal.
Highly recommend their professionalism and understanding with all our issues and are always clear and concise with information and ways forward. They are friendly and understanding and always has your best needs at heart.

We have been dealing with DFA Law for over two years. Their service and advice has been exceptional in particular Michael and Paul who have helped us to get a good resolution.

My first time working with DFA, but it felt like I was a longstanding client! The initial call to conclusion of the matter was faster than I thought possible! Thank you to Kirtsy, Jasmine & Lina!

I found using DFAlaw to be a very efficient and friendly service provider. We were kept well informed, and the details supplied were a great help with any decisions we had to make during out new Lease negotiation. I would highly recommend DFALaw and especially the individual attention to detail given by our Property Lawyer – Amy Cornelius.

The reason I have engaged with DFA Law LLP for 30+ years for property and corporate advice for my business and privately is, quite simply, the people. Always a can-do attitude, a genuine interest in and understanding of our business and personal ambitions, and always professional, quality and timely advice, through good and challenging times. Life and business is about relationships, and DFA are a trusted, important and reliable advisory partner and friend in our journey.
