I contacted RLK Solicitors earlier this year after seeing an advert regarding business interruption claims. I was initially quite sceptical, but I decided to take a chance, and I’m so glad I did! My claim was initially handled by Crystal before being passed over to Theo Mostert and I genuinely cannot fault either of them. […]
I’m very happy with the service I received from Crystal and the team. They were professional, helpful and kept me updated throughout the process. Crystal was always friendly and responsive, and I really appreciate all their support. I would definitely recommend them. Esmaeil
Thank you to Theo and team for helping me with my covid 19 business interuption claim. My business was fairly new at the time so I did not receive any government help during national lock downs putting me in huge financial debt. This has given me and my business a little head start for next […]
i love the experience of the company
Initiated a claim against Salon Gold after discovering that no claims had been allowed for the closure of the business during the COVID period. Jamie assisted with the claim and managed to secure an unexpectedly large settlement. Although a significant percentage ultimately went to the solicitors, it was absolutely deserved for the work they put […]
Very professional helpful service! Jamie was great help and fast communication from first contact
My studio was shut through Covid19 and eventually, the town it was in turned into a ghost town . I had to make the decision to shut it permanently unfortunately. My insurance wouldn’t pay out. I saw an ad from RLK back in March and reached out, expecting it to be a con. It wasn’t. […]
I had a great experience with RLK. Leanne handled my claim from start to finish and was professional, supportive, and kept me updated every step of the way. Communication was excellent throughout the whole process. While the fee is quite high, I genuinely believe that without RLK acting on my behalf, it’s very unlikely I […]
Efficient and reassuring. Got results and got me over the line after a long legal battle. Managed to get me compensation money I would never received on my own. Polite courteous staff at every level. Highly recommend
