Very very very bad service please avoid this company

I would strongly advise anyone not to use this firm based on my experience. What should have been a straightforward transfer of equity turned into a 6–7 month ordeal due entirely to their lack of care, organisation, and urgency. This process should have taken 1–4 weeks. There were no negotiations required, no legal advice needed, and all documentation was already in order. Despite this, progress was painfully slow and communication was consistently poor. From the outset, I made it clear that my situation was urgent and sensitive. I was buying the property from my ex-partner, and delays were putting me at genuine risk due to an ongoing history of intimidation and abusive behaviour from her and her family. I explained this several times, yet the firm showed no urgency, no empathy, and no effort to prioritise the matter. Their delays had serious financial consequences. My mortgage term expired during their period of inaction, causing my repayments to double overnight. My ex refused to contribute, leaving me to pay nine months of double mortgage payments entirely on my own. Throughout this time, the firm failed to make any meaningful progress. They also misplaced my paperwork, denied it, and created unnecessary stress, financial loss, and emotional hardship. It became clear they were not capable of handling even a basic transfer of equity. I eventually left the firm and appointed a new solicitor, who completed the entire transfer in 7 days — clearly demonstrating how avoidable these delays were. Despite delivering an incomplete and unacceptable service, the firm still demanded payment. I ultimately paid around 90% of their fees, not because they had earned it, but because after two exhausting years dealing with the property situation, the loss of my father, and nearly losing my mother, I simply had no strength left to challenge them further. In my opinion, this firm fell far below the standards expected of a competent legal practice. If you value your time, money, or mental wellbeing, I would strongly recommend avoiding this firm. Please avoid mr Jawad Mahmood

Not recommended

Cash Sale purchase that took almost 3 months,should have been a lot quicker, had to chase HS Legal every step of the way.The whole industry wants a remake,council searches still done manually in 2026 is a absolute joke.No survery cash sale both ways so should have taken 4-5 weeks maximum.

At first we were sceptical to use HS legal but we have to admit it has been excellent. Jawad and the team have been incredibly responsive to our messages, often replying to us the same day! They have been great at chasing other solicitors in the chain and dealing with us when things unexpectedly changed. We would highly recommend them.

AVOID, AVOID, AVOID Our buyer used HS LEGAL and they held up the sale for over 3 weeks due to no replies which cost us thousands. They do not respond to calls and when they do they were quite abrupt, take over two weeks to reply to basic email queries before asking the same queries excepting adding one more query in. I have been through the buying process many times before but this was by far the most painful. please dont make the same mistake and avoid to use this company
