    • After speaking to Preenay Chohan yeaterday my situation was made a lot clearer and he has given me some options to consider going forward, in what I can only describe as an horrendous situation I have found myself in. He was understanding and compassionate. And I will not hesitate to get back in touch if and when I need to clarify anything.

    • I contacted Preenay for help with a non-molestation order and child custody case after my previous solicitors failed me and I couldn’t get Legal Aid. Their service was exceptional. They were understanding, professional, and knowledgeable. I finally got the protection my children and I needed. I highly recommend their services

    • Absolutely amazing, from the start off my nightmare to the end the guy Preenay has been there I couldn’t recommend him enough his experience and knowledge is second to none, I would highly recommend his service to anyone he will put you in the right path 10/10.

      Danny Dixon
    • I can’t thank Preenay enough for everything he did. When I first asked for help I didn’t know who to turn to or what to do and he helped me from start to finish and offered endless support throughout. I genuinely would not have been able to get through everything if it wasn’t for Preenay. The words I write just can not do the help he gave justice.

    Why Pay High Hourly Rates When You Don’t Have To?

    Solicitors in Birmingham can charge £300 an hour (£250+VAT), making it hard to get the family law support you need without breaking the bank. We understand that, especially during tough times like divorce or child custody battles, every penny counts. That’s why our McKenzie Friends offer a more affordable and transparent approach—no hourly rates, just a fixed price for our services. When you choose us, you’re not just paying for time, you’re paying for results. After your FREE 30-minute consultation, we’ll charge just £100 for a detailed session, no matter how long it takes!

    Why should I choose McKenzie Friends over a solicitor in Birmingham?

    Solicitors can charge upwards of £300 an hour (£250+VAT), which quickly becomes unaffordable for many. We offer a cost-effective alternative with fixed fees, including a FREE 30-minute consultation followed by a £100 detailed session, regardless of duration.
