Rajesh Saharan consistently earns praise for patience, clarity, and genuine care in handling family, criminal, and employment matters. Clients repeatedly note how he takes time to listen, explains everything in plain language, and keeps them informed throughout. One negative review flagged a staff member who couldn't answer basic questions and allegedly pressured a caller to pay upfront before discussing the matter. The firm covers Perth metropolitan areas and claims over 23 years in practice. Most praise centres on personal dealings with Rajesh himself. Reviewers highlight employment law and workers compensation cases alongside family and criminal work. Several clients note receiving reduced or waived fees depending on circumstances.
