Family Law

Calm, clear and thoroughly professional

For a family matter, Jessie Hansford acted for me, handling the matter with calmness and clarity. When meeting me in person, she listened carefully to what I wanted and respected my instructions. She explained every step in plain terms. Her fees were appropriate and clearly outlined. She took real care to ensure her work would protect me as client in the long term. Lilly and Thomas were equally professional and responsive throughout. I knew I was in good hands from our first meeting and would be very happy to recommend Jessie.

Probate dispute

I spoke with Jessie and explained my concerns regarding a probate debt and queries on some other connected matters. Jessie was very clear with her explanations, providing advice and options. She also took a non arranged telephone call and provided guidance. Jessie provided excellent face to face advice, guidance and supporting emails.

Excellent all round service

I have used two different departments within Gaby Hardwicke and they have both been professional and first class. As a client I was put first and kept informed throughout the ongoing process and procedures of both departments. I would certainly recommend them to anyone who wants good legal advice at an affordable price.
