Excellent and Consistent Service

As always the service Yilmaz has provided has been outstanding. Yilmaz' guidance, advice, and professionalism throughout have been exceptional, and his attention to detail, due diligence, and patience have made all the difference in getting this over the line. We are absolutely delighted to have completed, and truly appreciate the consistent support Yilmaz provided every step of the way.

Home Buyout

My case was a sensitive and urgent matter, and after being let down by another firm at the last minute, I felt quite overwhelmed. Jess stepped in and completely turned things around. She kept her promise to meet a tight deadline and made the whole process feel far more manageable. Her communication was clear throughout, and she showed genuine empathy and understanding, which made a real difference. She also picked up on issues I wouldn’t have noticed and resolved them quickly, giving me complete confidence. Everything was transparent, with quotes matching invoices and no hidden costs. Jess is not only highly professional but also a genuinely lovely person to work with. I cannot thank you enough for what you did for me. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her and the firm in this work to be completed :-)

Do not use these solicitors they are inefficient, threatening and extremely rude. Three and a half years ago I tried to purchase a property with no onward chain, after four months of very poor communication I was forced to purchase a different property. As a result I was left homeless for two and a half months forced to live in a tent whilst being treated for stage 3 cancer. THE SOLICITOR WAS FULLY AWARE OF THE TIGHT DEAD LINE AND MY PERSONAL CIRCUMSTANCES BEFORE I ENGAGED THEM. Phone calls were ignored As a result I refused to pay the remainder of the invoice because of the poor service given and moved to another Solicitor I purchased another property, my mortgage offer had timed out resulting in much higher interest rate and a more expensive property which required extensive renovation, I am out of pocket by at least £60k Move forward two years and without warning or communication at my new address ( which they were fully aware of) they have put a CCJ on me at my previous address I only found this out when I tried to borrow. The bill now with the 8% interest is £1243.00 that they have added, A charity dealing with my affairs has contacted Hinks to explain that my end of life issues I offered £883.00 to close the matter or terms for the full amount Hinks response is if I don’t pay within 7 days they will send a debt collector to my home. If this is how they treat terminally ill people, anyone else do not have a chance. I have handed the matter to the Ombudsman Please do not use them

I have utilised the services of Josiah Hinks for several transactions, engaging with Sue Oswell in the residential department, and Yilmaz Ozgen in the commercial department. Both Sue and Yilmaz consistently provide exceptional service and offer sound, pragmatic advice to get deals through to completion. I highly recommend them both!

Buying and selling my house

Natasha was absolutely brilliant, nothing was too much, she kept in touch with me from start to finish. If I had a query she sorted it out very quickly, and made the whole process less stressful. I would definitely recommend Josiah Hincks and Natasha to anyone I know that needs legal advice. Excellent service.

Elderly

Confusing visit for elderly people in their 80s, and extortionate POA document fees and home vist charges without clarification. Incorrect advice given on visit and extremely rude after call service for direct family member involved with their clients and abrupt end of phone call after request for clarification.

I've used JH for different legal requirements. They are always professional, competent and capable. I refer to pay for them, than use the lazy incompetent 'free' solicitors through various insurance or other routes.
