    Direct Access Client Testimonials 

    June 2024, from Mr TD:

    "I am writing to extend my gratitude and give a review of Tom as a Barrister for the hearing that he took in April. Tom represented my twin sister at a preliminary hearing at Croydon County Court. I am the Respondent whilst my sister was an Intervenor. I was very impressed by Tom's attention to the fine details of the case and most of all his compassionate approach to the case.

    For the first time although I was a LIP; I felt at ease and knew that my sister was in very safe hands professionally. I would most gladly recommend Tom to anyone I know who wants the services of a very competent and kind Barrister.

    I want to say thanks to Tom again."

    January 2018, from Mrs W in Hampshire: "Dear Mr. Tyler,

    I would like to whole heartedly thank you for all your support-along with your re-assuring manner & diplomacy, you were worth every penny.

    Once again thank you."

    September 2017, From Mr B in London: "Mr Tyler is a warm friendly person, he is highly knowledgeable and dealt with my situation thoroughly.

    "I was extremely pleased how Mr Tyler dealt with my case, I was not expecting the outcome I received.

    "Highly recommended and I would definitely work with again.

    "Thank you again Mr Tyler."

    August 2017, From Mrs A in Surrey: "Thank you so much for your direction yesterday. You were absolutely amazing and I am so glad you acted for me.

    "I just wish I had you at my previous hearings as I have been led up the garden path.

    "You are so professional, firm and of course your years of experience gave me the best result. There was as you say significant risk of losing my home if I were to have had a different barrister who knows I could have been led up garden path again?

    "Thank God I had you.  You’re a great man and warm hearted!"

    August 2017, From Mr P in Bristol: "Tom Tyler was unflappable. He very quickly gained a good grasp of the situation and laid things out clearly for me so that I could understand what my options were.

    "I was particularly impressed with the way Tom dissected my extremely complex financial position and laid it out clearly in such a way that it was impossible for the opposition to dispute it. Had I not had the benefit of an expert Counsel in Tom who was well versed in financial matters and who knew how to display and tabulate them in an easy to understand way things may not have gone as well and I could have easily lost the case. Thank you."

    August 2017, From Ms B in West Sussex: "Thank you for coming to my aid so generously. I feel very blessed to have been represented by you and am deeply grateful for your help."
