What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Parents and grandparents facing the most difficult family circumstances have turned to this York practice, and their accounts describe a team that steps in when cases appear hopeless. Several customers write about child custody disputes, parental alienation claims and false allegations that had cut off contact with their children, with the firm building structured, evidence-led cases that led to full custody at the first hearing in one instance and the dismissal of a fact-finding in another. Reviewers repeatedly praise Mo for listening without judgement, explaining each legal step clearly and remaining contactable late into the evening, while others highlight strategic advice on safeguarding and urgent applications after a family bereavement.

An aspect raised across a number of reviews is how the practice rescued matters mishandled by previous representatives, including disputes over a child's surname and attempts to relocate a teenager abroad. Grandparents seeking care of grandchildren and parents fighting non-molestation orders describe the same steady guidance through multiple proceedings, with clear explanations of evidence and court timelines. The recurring theme is a child-focused approach that restores confidence and delivers results where earlier efforts had failed.

I can't thank the team enough for their support during an incredibly difficult and stressful child law case. From our very first consultation, our lawyer took the time to really listen and believed in us, even when the case felt messy and overwhelming. They never made us feel judged, just supported, and gave us a clear strategy to work through over several months and hearings. What stood out most was their genuine commitment replying to messages late at night and working around the clock ahead of hearings, always making time to talk things through when I was anxious. Their attention to detail and calm guidance made a huge difference at a time when everything felt like it was against us. Thanks to their expertise, dedication, and belief in our case, we achieved the outcome we needed and I'm forever grateful. I'd recommend them to anyone facing a challenging family matter.

I came to Kabir Family Law after a very bad experience with previous reprenstative who had mishandled my case about my child's surname. From the first free consultation with Mo, I finally felt that someone properly understood the situation and the damage that had already been done. He didn't make false promises about "fixing" a broken case, but he listened carefully, worked with me even late at night, and went through the judgment and reports line by line to see whether an appeal was genuinely possible rather than just telling me what I wanted to hear. He was honest, clear and always focused on my child's welfare, not just on forms and procedure. As a mum of a neurodivergent child, I felt heard, respected and believed. I would strongly recommend Mo and Kabir Family Law to any parent thinking about an appeal after being let down before. 10 stars from me - thank you for all your help.

Honestly, I didn't know where to turn. My son's mum walked out, made abuse allegations against me out of nowhere, and my biggest fear was that she would take my boy and I would never see him again. I had a free consultation with Mo and he took the case on, treated me like family and went straight into action. He gave me the confidence to fight for full custody when I was ready to give up, and kept reminding me to stay focused on what was best for my son, not the drama. With his help we got an urgent hearing and the judge made a residence order and an injunction, so she can't remove my son from my care or take him out of the country. My little boy is thriving in my care now - settled, happy, back in his routine - and I finally feel like his future is secure. All of this happened incredibly quickly. They were there around the clock, every question answered, never left in the dark. I can't thank them enough. If you are a dad going through anything like this, don't hesitate - I would highly recommend this firm!! Mo thank you for everything including those late nights!!

Kabir Family Law have been an absolute lifeline to me as a grandmother trying to secure care of my grandchildren after my daughter passed away. They explained every legal step in plain English, moved quickly to help me get my urgent applications issued, and built a clear, child focused case that put my grandchildren’s needs first. Their advice on strategy, safeguarding and how to present my evidence was precise and reassuring, and the position I was prepared for my hearing was thorough but concise and easy for the court to follow. I felt listened to, protected and genuinely supported throughout, and I would not have had the confidence to face these proceedings without them. Would highly recommend to any Grandparents out there!! 10 stars from me!!! Thank you. P.S leaving via my daughter's account

I cannot recommend Kabir Family Law highly enough — they have been absolutley outstanding. Having their support during what has been the most difficult and stressful period of my life has made all the difference. The team, particularly Mo, have gone above and beyond at every turn. Late night emails, early morning calls - nothing was ever too much. Their communication has been exceptional - I have always been kept fully informed and never left in the dark. Their advice has been clear, strategic and practical, and they have fought my corner with real dedication. Throughout it all, they have made me feel genuinely supported and in safe hands. I often felt like the odds were stacked against me. Mo and the team gave me hope when I had none, and believed in me when I struggled to believe in myself. Thanks to their hard work and unwavering commitment, I have been able to fend off false allegations with full custody of my children. Mo, thank you for everything.

I nearly walked away from the fight for my daughter. Allegations about risk, substance use and mental health were piled against me, and my ex had a tough London barrister. Meeting Mo at Kabir Family Law changed everything. He listened without judgment, cut through the noise and gave me a precise legal plan based on evidence and timelines – not wishful thinking. Together we built a clear, factual case that led the court to throw out the fact finding hearing and grant me unsupervised time with my daughter over Christmas. For the first time in over a year, I watched her open presents in my own home. If you’re a father facing false allegations and feel the system has written you off, speak to this firm. They gave me a way forward when I thought there wasn’t one – I’d recommend Kabir Family Law, and Mo in particular, without hesitation. Mo, you are 1 in a million!! Thakn you again!

From 50-50 Success to Blocking International Relocation - This Firm Delivers" A close friend secured a 50-50 custody arrangement through Kabir Family Law. When my ex tried relocating our 14-year-old son to the USA, I got a referell and called Kabir Law. Best thing I ever did! Mo worked around the clock - late nights, weekends, and was thoroughy professional. He didn't just handle my case, he gave me the strength to fight when I was losing hope! His strategic brilliance dismantled every weak argument, exposed the rushed timeline, and put my son's welfare front and center. Result? Prohibited steps order granted. Child arrangement order secured. My son stays in the UK, completing his GCSEs, and our bond is stronger than ever! Fathers - if you're losing hope, don't. I cannot thank Mo enough for what he's achieved. I'll be recommending this firm to every parent I know facing the same nightmare I did. They don't just win cases - they reunite families! Many thanks Mo & best wishes!! Thanks a million!
