We recently completed our second property transaction with Daveena and once again the service was excellent from start to finish.

Throughout both transactions, Daveena was professional, responsive, thorough and always available to assist with any questions or issues that arose during the process. Her communication was clear and proactive, and she handled even the more complex parts of the conveyancing process efficiently and calmly.

Buying and selling property can often be stressful, but Daveena made the process much smoother and gave us confidence throughout. I would highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a reliable and professional solicitor.

Outstanding Result and Expertise – Alex Cochrane (Partner at EDS). ​I had the privilege of being represented by Alex Cochrane in a complex defamation case, and the outcome was truly outstanding. Alex is a brilliant legal strategist with a deep expertise in reputation management and defamation law. From our first meeting, his analysis was sharp and precise. Thanks to his professional guidance and meticulous approach, we successfully secured a strike-out of the claim at an early stage, bringing the dispute to a decisive end.

From the moment you took on my case, Alex, I felt an immediate sense of relief. Because of the incredible dedication shown by you, Dhillon, and Lucy, I truly believed we would achieve a positive outcome. My wife and I are deeply grateful for everything you have done.

We had a very difficult house sale and purchase and Mahwish was very calm and competent and held everything together.

— Client of Mahwish Ansari

I would just like to say thank you to Mahwish Ansari for her professionalism when dealing with my purchase of a new house, I was a first time buyer and she explained in detail at all times what was required etc which made the experience a lot better. At all times she was there for me when needed to ask questions and give advice I would not hesitate using her again if I needed to.

— Client of Mahwish Ansari

I had a great experience with Mahwish. She was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and responsive throughout the entire process. Everything was explained clearly, and I felt confident knowing my case was in such capable hands. I highly recommend Mahwish to anyone looking for a reliable and dedicated solicitor.

Edwards Duthie Shamash Solicitors were recommended to me.

I was impressed by the time and care spent unravelling my dilemma. Mahwish Ansari’s clear and concise summary helped me arrive at a good decision.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this firm in future.

— Client of Mahwish Ansari

I had a very positive experience selling my property through Mahwish Ansari and Gary Gillespie. It was not a straightforward sale and dragged on due to delays on the buyer’s side, but throughout the process they remained calm and professional. Gary provided steady guidance at the start, and when the file was passed over, Mahwish picked it up with real momentum. She got up to speed quickly and pushed it through to completion just before Christmas, which felt like a miracle after months of frustration. I am genuinely grateful for the outcome and would happily recommend them.

5 Stars – The perfect blend of expertise, tenacity, and compassion.

Choosing Mahwish from EDS solicitors, was the best decision I made during a very difficult time. Her knowledge of the law is truly exceptional; they provided clear, strategic advice that made a complex process easy to understand, ensuring I felt informed and confident at every turn.

​When it came time to advocate for me, she proved to be a fearless fighter. They were relentless and tenacious, pursuing the best possible outcome with unwavering dedication. She secured a better result than I had ever hoped for, demonstrating their power as a strong advocate.

​what truly sets Mahwish apart is her profound compassion. Dealing with legal issues is stressful, yet they approached my case with genuine empathy, providing emotional support and patience alongside their legal brilliance. She treats you like a person, not just a case file.

​If you need a solicitor who is smart, aggressive when necessary, and genuinely cares, look no further. Highly, highly recommended.

Absolutely outstanding support, guidance and help from this solicitors. We were allocated a lovely, kind, considerate very professional but approachable member of the team. Mahwish’s professionalism shone through making my mother and I feel at ease with the whole process of selling our family home. With restrictions of mobility and helping to support around a busy work life Mahwish is flexible and understanding. From start to finish the whole process was dealt with in a professional manner, we were kept up to date on a regular basis, our questions answered and explained in layman’s terms for us. All comms were followed up via email so we had everything in writing. Mahwish dealt direct with all parties including our estate agent keeping a well coordinated approach for everyone. The cost was also very reasonable for the work that goes into selling a residential property.


A 5 star service, I highly recommend Mahwish and this company. You won’t be disappointed. Thank you Mahwish for all you’re hard work and support. We wish you all the very best in your career and will certainly recommend you to family and friends.

Working with Natalie has been a breath of fresh air, she is very honest and professional, and Edwards Duthie Shamash should be feeling ‘over the moon’ to have such a dedicated solicitor in their firm. 10/10.
