My husband and I would like to thank Shama Karim of Caines Law for her professionalism and hard work with regard to my – road offence I was stopped by police as they checked and found that I was driving without insurance.  My insurers had cancelled my policy (fully paid up front) without telling me as they had not received the proof of my no claims discount although I had got in touch with my old insurance and put them in touch with my new one.

Anyway, Shama Karim managed to persuade the insurers to provide a letter of indemnity which meant that although technically I was driving without insurance, I was not in any way at fault. As a result of securing this letter, in spite of me not being insured, the insurance company considered me as being insured on the date of the alleged incident. As a result of securing this letter she also managed to persuade the Prosecution to discontinue proceedings.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Shama Karim of Caines Law for the excellent service she provided us leading up to and completion of my speeding case

I would highly recommend Shama Karim to my family and friends requiring legal advice from a most friendly solicitor who gets the job done really well.

Caines Law did an excellent job.  I felt confident I was being represented with expert advice, provided in a friendly & approachable manner.  They were sensitive to my financial restraints and kindly provided their services through a ‘No Win, No Fee’ type arrangement.  Anyone who has the misfortune of a Tribunal/employment claim would be very fortunate to have them on their case.

I would happily recommend Caines Law to others as a result of my experience.  Thank you.

My sincerest thanks to both Feroz and Luke at Caines Law who have both been very professional and supportive to me and my family throughout the process following a motoring incident which made the whole experience much more manageable and less stressful.

Their support has been without a doubt exceptional and reassuring and I have learnt a great deal through this experience which resulted in a very positive outcome. Many thanks again.

I was recommended to Caines Law by a friend when I found myself in danger of losing my driving license.  From the start they were very re-assuring and took me through all the steps required to prepare for the Magistrates Court.

James  looked after me through the whole process, he was always there to speak to when I was worried and answered all my questions immediately.  Without his help I would most certainly have lost my license and therefore my career.  I cannot thank him enough.

Caines Law Solicitors deliver their Legal services with the best practices. They do not just represent you but take the ownership of the case away from you, put themselves in your shoes and fight your legal battles. My dealings were predominantly with Shama Karim. She was excellent in every sense of the word.

I was surprised with the excellent Service I received which ended up in Victory. I am more than glad to say …. they know the Legal mathematical gebric-operi to the later and ready to win any case and make anyone a Victor.

After a telephone call to Caines Law Solicitors, I realised how complicated the legal system is.However Caines Law staff are well trained and have excellent communication skills. They are friendly, efficient, honest, confident, very experienced and highly successful. They are by far the best law firm I have dealt with. They helped me understand the law simply, without being condescending.

Privately funded defence can be expensive. Caines Law however, were very competitively priced. They even set up an instalment plan to make it easier to make the payments.

I originally considered representing myself, but I am glad I didn’t. After observing Caines Law solicitors and barristers practice law, I realised I was fortunate to have such representation. I witnessed people at court attempting to represent themselves. They were in the same situation as me. However they left court unsuccessful.

I highly recommend Caines Law

My experience of Caines Law has been excellent, I was experiencing a change in circumstances in my work contract and required urgent independent advice. From a quick google search on a Sunday evening Caines Law came up and appeared suitable. I sent an e-mail request for advice and was called immediately for a free consultation. At that consultation I explained my situation and was given immediate advice in a professional and supportive manner which was very important to me during a period of potentially major change in my career. We agreed next steps and via e-mail reviewing of documents and meetings were able to resolve my position satisfactorily and I consider for good value. Most importantly I received swift, professional and thorough responses to my querie.

I thought that I should take the , perhaps all too rare, step of letting you know how pleased I was with the service I received recently from your firm when I was seeking help over a legal matter with my employer, Goole High School.

Whilst the sums involved were relatively low and the dealings very amicable, I needed the reassurance of having someone on my side that new what the process involved.

I was contacted by a Solicitor from the team, and found the whole process to be far less daunting than it may otherwise have been. He was able to explain the process in plain terms without needing to swamp the issues with jargon. He has, as I am sure you are well aware, a very personable manner and a calm disposition when dealing with people who are not used to engaging with the legal professions. I am sure that many of my questions would have bordered on being trivial.

I had intended to write to him directly to thank him for his assistance but decided that writing to the company and asking that my comments are passed onto the relevant section was more appropriate.

He seems a talented young man and should be recognized for his attributes, which all too often are in short supply when dealing anonymously with companies over the phone.

I would like to thank the team at Caines Law and especially Feroz, for all the support that I received in fighting my case at court. As a retired Police officer I am only too aware of how daunting it can be to challenge a Police officer and have the audacity to disagree with their version of events. However, with the right support and a firm belief in your innocence, it is possible to take on the system and win.

Feroz was always just a phone call away and nothing was ever too much trouble. I knew instinctively that he would fight my corner and he instructed an equally good Barrister to defend my case. Feroz went through every aspect of my case in detail and advised me every step of the way. His reassurance and guidance through all of the procedures reduced some of the stress that is part of challenging authority.

This was my first time in a magistrates court on the wrong side and although I was rather pessimistic about the outcome, knowing how the courts work, I was more than happy to see the officer justify his actions. He could not and my case was dismissed. I would urge anybody in the same position to fight back, it is all too easy to be issued with an Fixed Penalty Notice and most of us just pay and take the points, the officer’s know this and do not really expect to be challenged. If you really believe that you are innocent, then get Caines Law behind you, you couldn’t wish for a better team.

Drink Driving charge- I was very worried was expecting a ban. Not if you have a great team to defend you. I had made the right choice, instructed an innovative and sharp lawyer in Shama Karim. She knew how to get me off the drink driving ban, she said she would fight for me and she did. She actually went one step further and I got my legal fees back.

The best legal professional I have worked with.

Many thanks Shama!
