Lara Hockney

I talked to a few potential solicitors before landing on Holborn Adams, and I'm so glad I went with them. What immediately struck me was their calm and empathetic approach which is exactly what you need when you are suddenly thrown into an unfamiliar and scary world. My initial introduction was with Fay and she was reassuring and put me at ease. I chose Lara to be my solicitor and she continued in the same manner, ensuring I was comfortable and ready and was there for me throughout the whole process. She took the time to read my case and my evidence and made sure all my questions were answered. She gave good legal advice and we prepared a thorough statement in my defence. Following my interview the case was closed with no further action. Lara did a great job throughout and very happy with for the service I received.

Once we had contacted Holburn Adams everything suddenly became so much easier and far less stressful. The team was always available with advice or information as needed. Nothing was ever too much trouble and we formed good relationships. We always felt supported knowing that they were working with us and worried less knowing that they are completely reliable, knowledgeable and accessible. Onika was helpful and understanding . Lara was exceptional as a lawyer and as a person and I feel we could not have managed without her

"I can’t thank Lara Hockley enough for her incredible support after I was arrested for ABH following a family argument. From the very beginning, Lara was brilliant. She knew exactly what needed to be done, and her attention to detail was outstanding. What really set Lara apart was how fantastic she was with my sons. She took the time to secure witness statements from both of my boys, handling them with the utmost care and professionalism. Thanks to her hard work and dedication, she secured a 'No Further Action' (NFA) within just 8 weeks, allowing my family to move forward. If you need a solicitor who is thorough, caring, and gets results, I highly recommend Lara. I am incredibly lucky to have had her on my side."

Excellent communications, reassuring with their advice and speedy action dealing with the early and extremely worrying first stages of plods actions. I would recommend this firm of solicitors without hesitation.
