I have used their legal advice and assistance on several occasions. Most recently, attorney-at-law Tauri Tigasson positively surprised me with his proactive approach, precise, and determined counseling, even pushing me to act more efficiently. It exceeded my unspoken expectations. Working with them has been a true pleasure.

My family and I are sincerely grateful to the Lepmets and Nõges bureau, whom we found through recommendations from acquaintances. A long and exhausting process had reached a dead end, but thanks to their professional assistance, expertise, resourcefulness, and, more importantly, understanding of the situation and humane attitude, we can now continue with our normal lives.
