Excellent Solicitor

We have had a great service from Ian & his colleagues. He understood our requirements & was able to negotiate & complete everything that was required very effectively. Bear in mind that we live in Scotland so that meant everything was done by phone/emails - very impressed.

Exceptional service

I was let down by another firms representative and last minute asked for Hermione’s support with an imminent deadline. The experience between her service and the last solicitor I spoke with was night and day - she was empathetic, personable and reassuring during a stressful time. She took the time to run through everything so I understood it clearly, she made herself available and managed to close out my case with better terms and on time. Hermione was a life saver and is an asset to Gaby.

In safe Hands

I was recommended Gaby Hardwicke Solicitors by a family member as it seems the two previous solicitors I have used have been taken over and my contacts retired. My first experience GH has been extremely positive, Natasha helped me through the process and achieve a positive Client outcome. She was helpful, knowledgeable and professional all in a timely manor. She also pointed out additional areas in my case that I had not considered. All in all a great job… thank you.

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.
