Excellent client service - thank you so much to Monica and team for helping me navigate the Arras process for my recent home purchase. Monica went above and beyond to ensure I was supported throughout negotiations, and even visited my flat to review progress on the ITE (building improvements).
Thank you Monica and team!

I had the pleasure of working with Guacimara and the team of Strong Law/ Incwell. The matter was quite complex and needed the assistance across the firm. They were able to assist in all areas and we achieved a very good result for the company. It helps immensely that the team is based in Tenerife so we could get a lot done in an efficient manner. I intend to use Strong Law/Incwell on an ongoing basis for our labour related issues. I have no hesitation in recommending Strong Law/Incwell.
