Hi there,
I really feel like I must complain about a lawyer, Altaf Husain Patel. I aske him not to do any real work on my issue and he said he wouldn’t.
I met him in car park for a “free consultation” in a car park, when he told me the price for the work was £4000 I nearly dropped, he could see I didn’t want to pay it and he got quite irate because he made the journey to meet me in a starbucks park. When he got irate I felt threatened as we were sitting in his and I felt very vulnerable. So out, feeling threated, I made the payment (to his personal account? Not business which I thought was strange, like he was trying to avoid paying the tax on it.
I asked him to give me time to think about how I wanted, he created a search of urgency and made me feel panicked I did not want him to work on this right way I wanted to have a chance to gather myself. I wrote to him 1.5/2 hours after our meeting and told him that I wanted to price around as I felt his price was a lot. Told me it was too late and that he had already started, I then asked him why he started. As that point I just wanted my money back, he told me he appointed a already which is probably nonsence as it around 4 pm when we concluded the meeting .
When I told him that I didn’t want him to represent me anymore he started roaring down the phone at making all sorts of untrue accusations. This guy is really nasty, next thing Im going to do Is report him to the police. I’m not sure if this is the case or not but he said the 14 day cooling off period doesn’t apply the legal sector (see image below where he states this. He wanted to offer me £2000 back and I said no, I want all my money back now because of nasty attitude.
Not sure what you can do with a guy like this but cound you help me get my £4000 back please

Poor in all aspects of service. Came home for first visit, promised will be available for advice any evening on phone. Took £750 the same evening. However at crunch points in the case became unavailable. Extremely rude chap. Watch out and please stay away from this fake chap. Wrote the document with poor language with lots of mistakes. I had to correct it over a few hours. Very arrogant chap, had the temerity to state that .do not annoy me’! Very bad experience really. More...

I am writing my five star review because of the excellent work of Mr Altaf Patel and his colleagues today.I contacted Mr Patel's company at around 10am this morning, and by 4. 30pm he had had my case before a Manchester County Court Judge, and obtained for me a Stay to stop the bailiffs due also today.I cannot thank him enough for the work he has done for me.To get this result so very quickly is a true accolade to his professionalism and hard working nature.If you need a result quickly, that is truly professional, I cannot recommend this company enough.This company has well and truly saved my day.I now look forward to working with Mr Patel in the construction of my counter claim.

I was looking for solicitors for my wife visa. I found Altaf patel company online. I have contected him over the phone, he asked me to send document through whatsapp, after receiving my documents he visited my house. He completed my application form at my home then he confirmed everything on his law firm Allweis & Co Solicitors letter headed paper and then he submitted my wife application. He sent us royal mail recorded receipt. After some time we receive my wife biomateric an appointment and after that we receive her visa. Through out whole process we feel very ease, his fee was very compatetive, easy to approch, I would not hesitate to recommend him to any one for his service. He is excellent and we are giving another job for my cousin. More...
