Getting things sorted!

I went to GH, Bexhill to see about updating my will. I was soon given an appointment, when I met my solicitor we had a full and frank discussion about my wishes. She listened, carefully and gave me certain advice and some things for me to do before any further appointment. Some months later we met again. I provided answers to the various questions and we progressed allowing a draft will to be prepared. This was posted to me. I queried some points and corrected another and soon after I was given an appointment to attend and sign my new will. Which I am very pleased to have done. At this stage I can’t say if I have had great value for money as I have yet to receive my bill, though I have been told of a ballpark figure.

A representative from Gaby Hardwicke responded to this review

Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback Clive. We’re very pleased to hear that your experience with Gaby Hardwicke Solicitors Bexhill was smooth and thorough, and that you felt listened to and supported throughout the process of updating your will. It’s especially good to know that the advice provided, the step-by-step guidance, and the opportunity to carefully refine your wishes helped you reach a final document you’re pleased with. We also appreciate your comment regarding costs. We understand that value for money can only be fully assessed once the final bill is received, and we aim to ensure our pricing is always explained clearly and transparently from the outset, including any estimates provided along the way. Thank you again for your thoughtful review and for trusting us with something so important.

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.

"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

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.
