Client Feedback
After a very emotional and distressing time fighting to see my children. I was recommended Sima by a friend who said that she was the best at what she does. Without fail my case has taken a u'turn. Thanks to sima I finally get to see my children again. Sima has been nothing but exceptional, compassionate and driven to get us this result. I honestly can not recommend or praise sima enough with this review. Thank you again.

"Sima is a consummate and highly experienced family law professional, who offers a great deal of understanding and empathy, as well as hard facts and astute legal advice. Her focus, support and responsiveness made all the difference to me, in what is inevitably a highly emotionally charged process"

"Sima is fantastic at her vocation. She has gone above and beyond in my case and I cannot recommend a better barrister/legal representative. Her representation is top class and has had my child’s best interests at the forefront throughout.
Sima has made me feel at ease and aided me throughout the process of family court, supporting and talking each element through. She makes time for you and ensures you are fully informed and supported. Sima is a brilliant representative, compassionate, honest and works tenaciously"

"I was introduced to this young but astute barrister by a friend when I was in desperate need of help. I met her almost towards the final bits of the divorce and child custody case and had limited time to hire someone who could voice my concerns the way I wanted to be heard. Sima worked incredibly hard and within very little time, she not only grasped the case but worked really well with myself and towards winning the case.
Her professionalism and the way she carried out the hearings were amazing. She’s extremely hardworking, sharp and intelligent.
As a person she’s very careful yet kind. She has been making sure that I’m aware of my rights and that I reach the best outcome.
She has always been very quick to reply to her emails or texts and did not keep me hanging or waiting.
If you really want to have an honest yet shrewd barrister who is your voice in a legal battle and is there to win it for you then you must hire her services because she’s the best barrister there is.
I highly recommend her as she has worked on my case and got me an amazing clean sweep.
I wish Sima Najma the best of luck and hope that she continues to help people in need with her hardwork and sharp wit."

"Ms Najma represented me at a final hearing in respect of a family matter after sourcing her through Direct Access.
Although my case was pretty complex due to myself and the other party preparing the case for court ourselves, she used her expertise in planning and preparation for the best outcome for my son.
On the day in court when some issues arouse with the hearing going ahead as scheduled, Ms Najma immediately began seeking solutions to resolve the matter. Her approach was very professional, she is level-headed and certainly someone to have advocating in your corner.
If I should ever need any representation in the future, I certainly will be contacting Ms Najma and I would highly recommend her services"

"Sima Najma has represented me in a recent family matters case which had become quite complex. She certainly knew how to overcome any obstacles with knowledge and expertise. Sima goes above and beyond to make a stressful situation less so explaining everything going through the process from start to finish. I can’t thank her enough and feel so lucky to have found her , I have and will continue to recommend her to anyone who needs someone who’s thorough and at the top of her profession"

"I needed Sima’s help with a couple of legal issues. I’ve found her to be caring, compassionate, thorough, highly educated in her legal fields and tenacious.
Within 3 months of employing her at short notice she has helped me negotiate myself out of two family court appearances. With Sima’s help my daughter is back in my life which is a true blessing and this is many months ahead of time.
During this troubling time I’ve used other legal professionals and a Mckenzie’s Friend. Sima is by far and away the best out of these professionals. I cannot recommend her highly enough as a Barrister."

"Going through Family court, for me, was one of the most earth shattering, stressful and exhausting times of my life. Sima assisted me on my final hearing and I immediately felt more confident having her by my side.
She is straightforward, driven, honest and fearless in getting you the best result for you and your family and I would highly HIGHLY recommend her. My daughter and I will forever be thankful to her professionalism, support and kindness"

"Dear Barry, if you recall on Monday I wrote to you about Sima Najma who acted today for [anonymous].
You indicated she is aggressive in court. [Anonymous] was awarded the Order she was seeking and would most certainly recommend Sima who she found to be thorough and fearless in Court. We appreciated Sima being prepared to work late into the night."
SSMay 2021
"You were absolutely brilliant Sima!
Thank you for doing a FANTASTIC job at my final hearing.
Excellent communication throughout and excellent representation in court.
You truly kick ass and make a positive impact on lives.
Thank you so much!"

“Sima, is so passionate and dedicated in supporting and bringing the justice to her clients and she was very responsible and helpful throughout my divorce process, even answering my questions and responding to mails late in the hour.
Right from the first telephone conversation she was very patient, a good listener , informative and explained the whole process clearly. With this I found the whole process to be stress free due to her inputs and in the end was very pleased with the outcome in a very short time. She was very patient in explaining the terms (straight away she used to call me to clarify my doubts), suggesting and empowering me with my rights. Thanking you once again for your support and I will most definitely be recommending you.”

"Acting as a litigant in person is an extremely daunting prospect and navigating the whole divorce process with a difficult, contentious, controlling ex husband made mine even more challenging.
I needed a good barrister through direct access to help me through my upcoming financial hearings and settlement. I wanted someone I could talk honestly to and who understood what was at stake for me and my children.
I called a few barristers and whilst legally astute I felt they were all missing the human touch I felt I needed from my counsel.
Having read Sima’s profile and reviews, I knew she was perfect for me and my case and I was not wrong, from the very first conversation, she grasped the facts and immediately made me feel reassured that she understood me and my situation and was in my corner and by my side and ready to help me fight things legally.
I found Sima to be Extremely knowledgable, very personable, thorough and diligent. She strategically helped me present my case to the court, while she managed my expectations and respected my limited funds. She truly cares and went above and beyond to ensure she delivered on her promise as my legal counsel.
She was an absolute blessing for me, and I wouldn’t hesitate at all to recommend her to others in similar difficult situations....it’s the best investment I made during my divorce and I know I would not have had the same success without her assistance".

"I cannot recommend Sima highly enough, not only is she professional and incredibly knowledgeable she is empathic and extremely kind. I was LIP fighting my family law case in relation to my daughter and domestic violence, I spoke to Sima a matter of days before the hearing she amazed me with her level of service, she worked incredibly late and at the weekend in order to ensure she could offer me the best advice knowing all the details of my case. I was understandably anxious and worried about how my case would play our in court and she just made the whole process easier even just in terms of explaining the law in the way I could understand. She stood by me every step of the way, she was very honest about my case and spoke to me upfront about the strengths and weaknesses of both sides and the possible outcomes for me and my daughter.
I have paid £1000’s for solicitors in the past, in my experience they have been disinterested and most of the time I haven’t been able to get in contact with them until after the event of needing their advice and support. I have had the complete opposite with Sima, she’s contactable and her communication ability is outstanding she always got back to me on every issue I needed.
My only regret is not finding Sima sooner, she’s direct and fierce in all the ways you want your representative to be, she literally has felt like a guardian angel. The value for money that Sima brings is astonishing and this just reflects further her passion and commitment to her clients.
Sima helped me achieve a brilliant outcome during a finding of fact hearing and I will continue to use Sima for any further legal matters"

"I was a LIP during my financial case within divorce proceedings. I realised I would struggle to argue against the lies and manipulation from my ex so I found Sima through direct access. As soon as I read previous reviews and Sima's own testimony to what she represents, I knew she would be the barrister for me- honest, upfront, tenacious. I wasn't disappointed. Sima knew my case inside out, She understood and represented me how I wanted to be and was honest about my chances. She stood her ground during the Final Hearing and sifted through my ex's lies and manipulations. Not only was justice served but I gained closure from the process of seeing my ex be held accountable for his actions. I couldn't have done it without Sima and I have no concerns about moving ahead with the children's proceedings. I know that whatever happens, Sima will do her best to ensure the best outcome for me and my children. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Sima as she knows the law really well and has the passion and drive to implement it fairly. "

“Sima is one of the best in the business when it comes to advocating for clients within the Family Court Arena. She is a knowledgeable, attentive, and fierce advocate who goes above and beyond for her clients and those who are instructing her. Sima has represent my clients within complex Fact Finding Hearings which have contained highly controversial and extreme allegations in which she provided our clients with excellent outcomes. Sima is child focused and as an advocate always puts the needs of the child first when representing clients within the Family Court. From my professional experience, she is the best in the business when it come to advocating for her clients and will never leave a stone unturned. She is our first choice counsel for any cases we have within the Family Court and we cannot recommend her enough! Sima, is one of the best in the business and her client care is exceptional. If you need a Barrister for your Family Law matters you should most definitely instruct Sima, you won’t get any better anywhere else!” (Court Assistance UK, Dec 2020)

I am very grateful to Sima for accepting my case over such a short period of time and also with affordable price. I did not have any hope to win my case after several failure. However, Sima has a completely different approach to tackle issues. Sima is a trustworthy and a dedicated barrister who brought a game changer outcome in my case. She understood the case very well and was very supportive. She is sharp and knows how to hit the nail on the head

Whilst no one wishes to find themselves in a child custody case the best person to have on this journey with you would be Miss Najma. Miss Najma is a very knowledgeable, professional and very supportive barrister. I am grateful to have had Miss Najma fighting my case, she made my difficult journey alot easier than it would have been. Her ability in guiding and supporting me through every process was praiseworthy. I was very impressed with Miss Najma’s ability to get up to speed with facts on my case. Thank you for your professional attitude and sensitivity in how you handled this case. Most importantly Miss Najma cared about my case on a personal level and prepared the case to the best standard to ensure successful results. I am very pleased with the outcome and would definitely recommend Miss Najma.”

Sima I am glad that you are representing me. I was very impressed with the way you started our first hearing. You were very well prepared, professional, capable, and strong. I felt that the hearing went well. Thank you! I would highly recommend you

Overall experience with Sima was excellent, her knowledge allows her to adopt a creative mindset which allows her to achieve her desired result!

I have dealt with Sima on number of occasions, her legal knowledge in her field is second to none. I have found her very professional, courteous and approachable. Most of all no matter how busy she be, she will always respond to you swiftly. I would highly recommend her to anyone and would use her services without hesitation.

I absolutely cannot recommend Sima highly enough. Through what is by far the most difficult thing I have ever been through she has been amazing. Always going above and beyond to help me. She has been strong when I couldn't and has fearlessly defended me whilst always keeping her integrity. Sima has worked tirelessly on my case and has always been at the end of the phone when I have needed her. I am forever grateful.

Sima is very professional, very helpful and very respectful, she has treated me with dignity and really helped me through a stressful time. Sima made me feel at ease and helped lift the burden I had. I fully believe Sima is very capable and the best Barrister to represent you because she takes the time and consideration to deal with you and your case, I have been in very good hands the whole way through. Before Sima started to work with my long and complicated case, I had spent a lot of money with another firm and had received no progress. Sima continues to work relentlessly, I am very happy with the progress and results achieved by Sima. I would highly recommend Sima’s services to anybody and feel the trust and friendly approach she provides is second to none. From the very start she’s been fast and efficient. If you need an excellent and experienced barrister in the family law, then look no further. ★★★★★. The court room is where you will truly appreciate how hard she’s worked and studied your case. And representing you with a steely and clear manner is a natural ability she possesses.

I have a close friend who had exhausted all avenues in resolving a very acrimonious situation with her abusive and domineering husband who by virtue of concealing and manipulating the family finances during the divorce and child sharing procedures, all to his own advantage, had put his wife (my good friend) into a near state of poverty. His abusive use of the family money and manipulating the law against her, to a point that she felt helpless and defeated. The various legal practices that she turned to further failed her adding further to her near destruction. She was rendered incapable of clarity and lost sight of fairness, she felt she had nowhere to turn.
However, she did not give up and spoke to the law society who recommended she talk to Sima. This was her first bit of luck, Sima was a game changer. In court Sima was both objective and forceful and with great clarity in the presentation of the salient points of her argument. My friend now had a life line. Sima’s ability to grasp and understand the situation quickly brought clarity and demonstrated that there was a path out where she could see that some justice from this abusive husband could be achieved and real progress could be made to enable the fair access to her child she so much craved.
Whilst my friends case is not over yet, she can breathe again and feel that justice is starting to swing her way, she recognises that Sima’s involvement has made a fair and just outcome possible. Because I have been closely involved with my friends torment and seen at first hand the recent changes that have come about since the involvement of Sima, I cannot recommend her more highly. If my life had taken the same turn as my friends, I would make my first call to Sima.

I have instructed Sima on a few cases. I found her to be very professional, knowledgeable and experienced. She ensures that she prepares for the case thoroughly and gets the results you need.

I have worked with Ms Najma on several cases of mine with positive outcomes throughout. Ms Najma is highly experienced in her areas of specialism and the support that she provides her clients are of a consistently high standard of practice. I have had positive client feedback from clients post hearings and I would highly recommend Ms Najma for Family law matters. Ms Najma is always one of my first choices when seeking to instruct a barrister for hearings. I have full faith that Ms Najma will seek the most favourable outcome for clients and this is shown through work that she has done for me and my clients.
