  • Did you think this was underpriced, overpriced or about right?
  • Overall experience

Exceptional Professional - Nicola Wheater

Throughout the whole process leading up to the hearing it was clear that Nicola Wheater is an exceptional professional - sharp-minded with a strong attention to detail and a patient manner which has never gone unnoticed. Nicola was pragmatic, intelligent and calm - all qualities which have been appreciated. Nicola Wheater and Valerie Charbit (Counsel - Red Lion Chambers) were a fine team offering much reassurance to our organisation at an emotionally difficult time....

Exceptional Support for Pre- and Post-Nup Agreements

I had the pleasure of working with Kate for both pre-nup and post-nup requirements, and I couldn't be more impressed. She was incredibly easy to work with, keeping me informed every step of the way and always being reachable whenever I had questions or concerns. Her attentive and cautious approach ensured that every detail was handled with care, and she went the extra mile to select a barrister perfectly suited to provide the right advice. Overall, she made a complex process easier to navigate. I would absolutely work with her again if the need arises and highly recommend her services.

Excellent Solicitor at a challenging time

Kate Grant was my divorce solicitor and I would highly recommend her to anyone about to navigate a divorce. Kate was kind, understanding, extremely professional and happy to translate the legal jargon when I felt overwhelmed. During the entire process, I was kept updated on the progress and advised of pending costs. Kates regular communication and face to face meetings were beyond valuable. Kates advice on the 'next steps' helped me see a light at the end of what is not, a pleasant, tunnel. I would, and already have, highly recommended Kate as your divorce Solicitor.

Nothing was ever too much trouble, reponse times were much faster than i expected which helped with my anxieties and I will always be grateful for everything that she did for me during that difficult period. Would highly recommend.

Kate was fantastic through what was a tough period arranging and managing the care for my little girl.

She successfully obtained the parenting plan and court orders I had wished for and I couldn’t have asked for anything more

I recently had the pleasure of working with HCR Law on the sale of a business in London, and I couldn’t be more impressed with their service. Both the Corporate and Real Estate teams collaborated seamlessly, navigating the complexities of the transaction with speed and efficiency — despite delays from the other side. In particular, Parmjit Bhogal provided exceptional service and is hands down one of the best lawyers I have ever worked with. His professionalism, attention to detail, and dedication to getting the deal done ahead of schedule made all the difference. I highly recommend HCR Law for any business transaction.

I used this company for the purchase of my flat. My solicitor Maureen O'Regan was extremely helpful and efficient. This was the first time I have purchased a flat on the open market, she clearly explained the process and got the purchase through on a tight time scale. I would certainly recommend Maureen and use her services again if needed.

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.
