"Diligent, Insightful and Highly Recommended"

I recently worked with Hermione Porter on an employment matter and was extremely impressed with the service she provided throughout. Hermione was diligent, responsive and highly insightful from start to finish. She took the time to understand the situation fully, explained the legal position clearly and provided practical, commercially minded advice that helped me navigate a difficult matter with confidence. What stood out most was her attention to detail, prompt communication and ability to identify potential issues before they arose. She was always approachable, professional and proactive, ensuring that I felt informed and supported at every stage. I would not hesitate to recommend Hermione to anyone seeking employment law advice. Her expertise, dedication and client-focused approach make her an excellent solicitor to work with. — Bibi Lemos, Town & Country Domestic Staff & Town & Country Nannies

Hermoine Porter was absolutely outstanding. Her and her assistant were kind, understanding and extremely calming in a very stressful situation. Their service and the support and guidance from Paul Maynard was outstanding and the outcome was extremely positive. They worked hard and I can’t thank Hermoine, Paul and the team enough. Above 5* service and true customer service excellence.

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.

£435 quote when the standard is £120 elsewhere. Check your prices first and definitely shop around!

This matter involved a notarial service handled by one of our Partners and included drafting affidavits from scratch, not simply witnessing pre-prepared documents. Preparing and reviewing bespoke documents requires careful consideration, time, and compliance with strict regulatory obligations, including anti–money laundering requirements. Our service reflects the level of seniority, responsibility, and professional standards we maintain.
