Tenancy Deposit Claim

I cannot thank Ms. Lucy Hunter enough for the exceptional support she provided throughout my case. From the very beginning, she kept me informed with timely updates, responded promptly to every question, and maintained excellent communication at every stage of the process. What stood out most was how approachable and supportive she was when helping me make important decisions. Lucy took the time to explain my options clearly, guided me on the next steps, and gave me confidence during what could have been a very stressful experience. Thanks to her dedication, professionalism, and hard work, I was able to win my case and successfully recover my deposit and compensation. I am truly grateful for everything she has done for me and could not have asked for better representation. Lucy is a real credit to her firm, and I sincerely wish her every success in her future cases and career. Thank you again, Lucy, for all your help and support.

Driscoll Kinston & Co not only done their job thoroughly and professionally, but one of their particular members went above and beyond the call of duty, as originally they said, because of the court fees and everything else. That they had to pay out. I wasn't entitled to any money, but she managed to get me some money. Anyway, despite the fact that I already accepted the settlement. this is the reason for 5 stars.If I could, I would give ten the are well worth considering if you've got damp or mould in your home and disrepair, that needs doing well recommended!

My immature landord was not returning my deposit. I discussed the case with these guys and they sent me 29 pages conditional fee agreement contact. I was quite reluctant and unsure but after they answered quesiton serval time. Once I signed the contract they started to work. I got my deposit back within a couple of months (delay was on landlord side). Highly recommanded!

Thank you for your feedback, Qasim. We’re glad we could guide you through the process and help you recover your deposit efficiently. Your recommendation means a lot to us!

An absolute joke of a so called solicitors. They took on my case 3 years ago. After I had mould, blown windows and a leak and many various other things my landlord didn't fix. Even when I started the claim I sent videos of this leak still happening and leaking through my light in the kitchen. And proof that not all things were fixed according to the landlord. The day before court they suggested that I settle or I would be charged for the barrister. In this settlement I was awarded £0.00 after 3 years of stress with the landlord and this company not even 1p. I did kind of get the feeling these guys were cowboys from the start and wouldn't get a lot. But come on nothing? So now I'm left with nothing but stress. As I'm going to have to contact the landlord to actually get the jobs done. Sure that's what they were meant to do? Funny how there fees are paid and I'm pretty much were I was when I started the claim. So if your thinking about using these cowboys I would think again and just go to the ombudsman. Even if you don't get a settlement at least they will make sure the job is done unlike this so called professionals. Had to give them 1* as they don't have a 0 and trust me they are not worth the 1.

Absolutely awful to deal with and had the worst experience. I was awarded money in my claim last year and yet every bit of attempt to receive communication in relation to this has been ignored by Lucy Hunter. The representation I was given was absolutely horrendous. No one from the actual firm came to London to represent me and instead sent a “legal advocate” who arrived late, knew absolutely nothing about my case and claim. She was grossly underprepared and it was humiliating that I almost had to represent myself at one point. The judge was irate that she didn’t even know the cases and statute that she was referring to. I complained to them and I was told that it would be investigated and yet when I have tried to get answers literally ghosted. I am disgusted. I was heavily pregnant going into court. This is my very first time in court and I was beyond anxious and stressed and I was actually on bed rest for a week after the court date because of the humiliation and stress I experienced. I would never in a million years recommend this solicitors to anyone. They are rubbish and I feel completely validated in saying this as I was treated appallingly. They have so much to answer to

I got the best possible outcome I could’ve asked for. I’ve never had to get solicitors involved with anything previously so I had no idea on what the process would be but everything was explained to me every step of the way. Thank you!

After spending months of gathering evidence , sharing pictures of inside my home and making statement after statement my case was dropped 4 days prior to get compensation they pulled out . My children are appalled . Absolute scammers .

from Driscoll Kingston & Co Limited

Dear Sophie, Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re very sorry to hear how upsetting this has been, especially after the time and effort you put in and the impact on your family. This is not the experience we would want for any client. While there can be reasons a case cannot proceed, we understand how frustrating it is for this to happen so close to an expected outcome. We would welcome the opportunity to review this further if you wish to contact us directly.

I have today received settlement from a service carried out by this company. I was treated respectfully at all times from every person that I spoke to. I was updated with each part of all procedures and would recommend them to anyone looking for legal representation of similar cases. Regards linda holme .
