SRA ID: 141693

Being approachable, thorough and positive is the way I have always worked with clients, and that is very important in real estate, where delays and complications are often a part of the process. I enjoy helping people and I enjoy a challenge – real estate gives me plenty of opportunity in both those areas to work with a wide range of people and companies. Outside work, I enjoy spending time with my family and a range of sports.

Great Service

John did our conveyancing for our first house purchase and was fantastic. He was very thorough and gave us really good advice taking the time to explain everything so that we understood it fully. He kept contact with the upwards chain, managing their and our expectations. Couldn't be happier with the service we had - thank you!

Throughout the sale process, we received the best possible representation. Every aspect of the service provided by John was at the highest possible level and we could not have been in safer hands throughout.

First time property sale

5

HCR stood out from all of the other solicitors I contacted as I had many questions being my first sale. I was put through to John straight away and he took the time to explain the whole process to me and promptly sent over a quote. From then on he was fully engaged, gave me sound advice, and always made time to give me a call to explain anything I didn’t understand. I would highly recommend.

Professional, Knowledgeable, Very Good Value - Exceptional

This is the third time we have used hcr, Reading, for conveyancing purposes + have no hesitation in recommending them, especially John Banky. We cannot praise him highly enough! He kept us informed at every stage, he is "on the ball", deeply knowledgeable, professional, understanding and efficient at a time when more and more solicitors are offering unacceptable levels of service. We were charged fairly - especially considering the complex issues which arose + consider we received good value for money! We have sought advice with the company on other matters and they too have been excellent. We consider hcr to be "our solicitors" in all matters! Thank you hcr.

HCR picked up our late fathers estate after we were caught up in the closure of Axiom.

Two lawyers at HCR worked in tandem to finalise the assent of the estate and the remortgaging of a property in incredibly timely and professional fashion in the run up to Christmas.

Great company, amazing solicitor!

John did an excellent work and was always quick to reply to any of my many queries. During those stressful days of selling my house it was great to have a person like him next to me helping me and supporting me.
