Excellent Property Advice

The solicitor worked late into the Christmas period to enable us to move forward with this purchase. She was very approachable and knowledgeable, and understood quickly the particular issues concerning this purchase. She kept us informed at all stages and it all worked smoothly, thanks to her actions.

Fantastic advice and professionalism

I engaged Laura Upshall for the transfer of equity on my property, and the experience was exceptional. Her professionalism, clear communication, and prompt responses made the entire process seamless.

I highly recommend Laura and HCR for anyone in need of legal assistance for property matters. Their outstanding support and professionalism exceeded my expectations, resulting in a smooth and successful transfer of equity.

Fantastic personal service with house purchase

From start to finish we could not be happier with Laura and her team. She handled everything with patience and professionalism that we just cannot fault. Buying a house can be stressful, yet Laura ensured it all went smoothly.

Sharon Harding was recommended to me and I knew very early on in the sales process that I had made a great decision. Sharon is professional, extremely personable and an excellent communicator who keeps you updated throughout the process. She really made my recent apartment sale as stress free as possible.

Fantastic experience from start to finish with Bradley Armorgie and Venetia Greer for a property purchase. I have had the pleasure to deal with them both as a private client and as an estate agent, finding them to be professional and knowledgeable regardless of the many inevitable hurdles encountered during the way.
Would definitely use again and highly recommend HCR Law Solicitors.
