"I found Filomena very professional in everything she said and did. She gave me great advice about things I didn’t even know were my rights. My first account of meeting her I was very shy and with drawl but her friendly attitude put me at ease. I found her and Gepps Solicitors very professional and very friendly and I would recommend their services to anybody"
