What My Clients Say About Me:

“Mr Khuram took time to talk to me and helped me to understand the options in relation to my wife’s case. He is always such a gentleman and therefore my 5 star review.”
-AR-

“My family lawyer Khuram Liaquat dealt with a very complicated divorce matter with a former wife who i could not trace. My lawyer was able to track my former wife down and make her sign the necessary paperwork to progress with my divorce. I am pleased to confirm that my divorce has been finalised and I can move on with my life. I highly recommend this firm. I was always able to contact my lawyer and on the few occasions I turned up without an appointment, my lawyer always made time to speak to me. Very reasonable costs considering the amount of work they had to do to trace my former wife. Highly recommend. Will now instruct them on a immigration case I have.”

In my spare time, I dedicate my energy to raising awareness about the inadequate funding for brain cancers, following the loss of a close family member to the disease.  I have collaborated with Brain Tumour Research and made appearances on a number of media platforms, including ITV National News, BBC News, BBC Three Counties Radio, and Inspire FM. I have also been invited to the Houses of Parliament to offer my insight on the need for increased funding in brain cancer trials. I have been filmed for the Channel 4 documentary "Tom Parker, Inside My Head," shedding light on the journey of the late pop star from 'The Wanted' following his brain cancer diagnosis. More recently, I contribute to managing the brain cancer awareness and bereavement Instagram page @fight4amani, which currently has over twenty thousand followers.
