Mediation and resolution of disgruntled tenant.

Process was handled very professionally and from the standpoint of moral and not just legal judgement.

Building Negligence Claim

Following the emergence of some issues and concerns associated with some building works undertaken at our property, and following attempts to engage and resolve amicably with the other parties involved in the design and build of an extension, we contacted Jonathan Hogg at GWL on the recommendation of one of his colleagues, Peter Marsh. So began the start of an exhaustive and prolonged legal battle. Throughout this time, fraught at times with frustration exhibited by the behaviour of the other parties, Jonathan led by example, presented arguments, systematically, technically and from a robust legal position. Despite our concerns at times during the process Jonathan reassured us, using expert witnesses and barrister advice when necessary to support our claim. With every obstacle presented by the other parties Jonathan, working with us, provided evidence to support our position, counter and rebuff theirs. Eventually, and without the need to issue court proceedings, we reached a conclusion and settlement. We can honestly say working with Jonathan was a pleasure, where his knowledge, professionalism, tenacity and focus were exemplary. Above all his openness, reassurance and honesty was a breath of fresh air. We would, without hesitation, recommend Jonathan and GWL for legal advice and representation if asked.

Poor service

Dear All, Had a really poor experience with this firm as they did not keep in contact and did not achieve what they said they could do. Also they charged for their failure in the work. Would not have any dealings with the company and recommend that you do NOT give them a payment on Account.

Jonathan Hogg acted on my behalf with a dispute I had with local caravan site owners who weren’t easy to deal with, but Jonathan dealt with it in a very thorough and calm manner. He is very professional and advised the best way forward especially when they were using delaying tactics thus ending in an out of court settlement. I would highly recommend and use them again.
