I bought property and needed a consultation regarding eviction notices and tenancy laws. I consulted HPL based on their good reviews, and indeed was a positive experience.
I talked to Ludmila via zoom for 30 mins. She is thorough, knowledgeable with a keen attention to details. She even asked someone to cross the Arabic translation of the eviction notice to ensure it matches the English text. She answered all my questions, explained to me how the system works and gave me all the needed steps to follow in order to achieve my objective.
I am happy that I chose her services, and like many other previous reviewers, I highly recommend her firm.
