Profit Orientated company with slow/incapable solicitors

I spent £6500 for an easy divorce case and they weren't able to finish the job at all. Their hourly rate is lower than market but they are slower and has incapable solicitors ( at least my solicitor was) which doesn't help hourly charge. Their solicitor checked unsigned legal documents from other party and charged me twice once signed copy received. This must be simple number 1 rule that all legal documents must be signed before taking any action, You don't need to study law for years to learn such a fundamental rule. This is very much profit orientated law company, I would suggest anyone to avoid working with such a law firm at all costs, Go and find doubled hourly rate firm, I guarantee you they will finish your case at lower cost and quicker.

Divorce Proceedings

During what was without doubt the most difficult time of my life Gweni and her team provided a first class service in every aspect. Her knowledge, professionalism, advice and tenacity to stand up to the other sides demands was exemplary. At every step, Gweni was clear in her communication, strong willed but also empathetic when the stress of the process was a lot to deal with. I will always be grateful for Gweni’s (and her team’s) drive to ensure a positive outcome in the proceedings. A credit to her company and her profession.

Helping me with a Divorce

HRC Law was recommended to me by a family friend, in relation to a divorce. Sally and her team explained clearly, from the outset, when the process was and how much it would cost. They were extremely helpful throughout the whole process. Divorce is difficult, so knowing that Sally was there to help, made a big difference.

Exemplary service

Fate led me to Gweni in HCRLaw and I am so grateful that I had Gweni supporting and guiding me through the complex legal systems. When a court order was placed on myself and the children, it syddenly felt like a scary situation. However, Gweni's rapid response and the recruitment of Counsel to represent me in such a short time frame got me through each hearing.This resulted in the best outcome I could have hoped for on behalf of the children's best interests. Throughout the whole process I was approached with kindness and advised clearly on next steps, potential issues and solutions. As aforementioned it was a complex case and I felt reassured the entire time. I will be forever thankful to Gweni and Daisy.

I couldn't have been looked after better...........

Sally was the epitome of support and understanding at all times, the care and compassion she showed through my case was perfect and she was so professional and knowledgeable, I always felt well looked after and nothing ever felt like a problem. What impressed me the most was her ability to always listen to my thoughts and perspective, take them onboard properly, not just humour me, and then work out a way to progress that was sensitive and kind as well as totally professional. I cant imagine how difficult my process would have been without Sally Simply the Best, no question.

I can’t thank James Osbourne and Lauren Powell-Bateson enough for the support they have given me during one of the most difficult times in my life. Their professionalism, compassion, and dedication have been truly outstanding from start to finish. They guided me through every step with clear advice, patience, and genuine care, always making me feel supported and understood. Having solicitors who are not only incredibly knowledgeable but also kind and approachable made such a difference during a very challenging time. If you are looking for a family law solicitor, I would highly recommend James Osbourne and Lauren Powell-Bateson. They have been absolutely fantastic.

I was so impressed with HCR Law and could not have asked for better representation over the course of my divorce. Anita provided great clarity and reassurance in meetings and emails, she was also so professional and assertive in the family court. HCR succeeded in getting me the outcome I wanted.

I was represented by Fiona during family court proceedings for a specific issue and I could not recommend her enough, Fiona is very direct but also respectful and dedicated to her clients and work. She made the experience less stressful than i imagined. I would recommend Fiona to anyone! I hope we do not need to work together again in the nicest possible way as court is never nice for anyone, but if this was the case ever again I would be contacting Fiona! Thank you! X

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, Briony, which we will pass on to Fiona and the team. We're really pleased Fiona was able to make court proceedings less stressful for you.

We have asked Tracey to complete 2 house moves for us and wouldn't go anywhere else. She stays on top of the process and deals with others less knowledgeable in a calm and professional way while being very clear on who needs to do what.

Great experience with conveyancing

In the spring Tracey Crolla dealt with the conveyancing of a property where I was the power of attorney for the elderly owner who had gone in to a Care Home. It was an extremely stressful period for me but Tracey Crolla and her assistant Tracey Harding were both extremely understanding and helpful. Tracey Crolla kept me informed throughout the process and I wouldn't hesitate to use HCR Law again or recommend them to others.

A disappointing experience - used the company for property conveyancing and received a Quotation for their services. HCR then provided an invoice which didn't match the Quotation previously provided. I spoke to a 'Partner' on the conveyancing side who clearly didn't understand the legal difference between a Quotation and an Estimate which is pretty poor for a legal firm.

The team at Wright Hassall have been incredibly helpful each time we have had to go through the process of renewing our UK Visa. Daniaal recently helped us through the ILR application process and he made everything incredibly seamless, providing us with the right level of support and professionalism throughout the journey. If you have any immigration support needs in the UK, I would highly recommend working with the team. Thanks, Daniaal!

I had an excellent experience with Matt Gillett at HCR Law. From the outset, he took the time to really listen to my concerns and understand the issues I was facing. He provided calm, clear, and practical advice that helped me better understand a complex workplace legal matter. What stood out most was the effort Matt made to ensure I fully understood my options and the legal position. He was patient, professional, and genuinely invested in helping me. He went above and beyond what I expected, and far more than any other firm I contacted regarding my issue. I am extremely grateful for his support and would highly recommend Matt Gillett to anyone seeking knowledgeable, approachable, and client-focused legal advice.
