From start to finish with exceptional service and support, James Weller at Thatcher and Hallam worked with professionalism and care, with clear and constant communication through a long and complicated case which was ultimately successful with a good outcome. I was fully supported throughout and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him. Many thanks to James and Annette

Excellent Service

After a serious RTA i was referred to Will Welller for a Personal Claim, after 4 1\2 yrs we finally agreed an out of Court Settlement. Will Weller and the Team at Thatcher & Hallam were brilliant from start to finish, they and the team of outside experts they used were all really good at what they do, without Will's hard work, tenacity and diligence I do not think I would have got the substantial amount of money that I did, I would highly recommend Thatcher and Hallam solicitors due to both the professionalism and friendliness of everyone who I dealt with. Thank you to everyone who works at Thatcher and Hallam, I can now look forward to retirement in the next few years, thanks again.

Happy Tears 😹

While lying in my hospital bed all broken up no fault of my own I researched solicitors near me to take on my case, from the first enquiry I knew I was in good hands, everyone at Thatcher and Hallam was so understanding, knowledgeable, patient, while I struggled with my emotions crying all the time and not understanding what was involved in dealing with my claim and to realise a quote that was made "we are your friends not your enemy " as I did not realise how long claims take and all the professional people involved , so please forgive me wanting a quick fix , your professionalism and hard work and support achieved great success 👍 Anyone needing help and advice i throughly recommended Mr James Weller at Thatcher and Hallam .

I had a very difficult personal injury claim which my insurance company was useless at handling, as well as almost sabotaging it. 1 year before the claim was voided (3 year timescale), I contacted James Weller and I could not have asked for a better solicitor. Extremely grateful for him as he managed to settle it with a very fair price for the effort that was put in. Would certainly recommend! J

I cannot fault our experience with Thatcher and Hallam. We have both sold and purchased our property with them and Hailey and Tietia have been amazing throughout the conveyancing. Unfortunately there were a few issues along the way because of our buyer's solicitor, but Hailey was always responsive and reassuring to our emails, which was greatly needed at a very stressful time

Exceptional Service from Hayley Wakefield at Thatcher & Hallam Hayley was absolutely brilliant throughout what turned out to be a very long and stressful house sale and purchase. The process took over a year and nearly collapsed several times due to buyers dropping out and poor solicitors further down the chain, but Hayley was consistently excellent. She is professional, approachable, and explains everything in plain English, which made things so much easier to understand. Hayley always responded quickly and was at the end of the phone whenever I needed clarification or reassurance. Her calm, proactive approach kept everything moving when it could have fallen apart. I would highly recommend Hayley Wakefield to anyone seeking reliable and professional legal support for property transactions.

A representative from Thatcher + Hallam LLP responded to this review

Dear Louise, Thank you so much for your review for Hayley Wakefield. It is great to see that she was supportive and reassuring throughout your house sale and purchase. We hope you settle in well to your new home and we will pass your review on to Hayley. Kind regards, Thatcher + Hallam

We chose Thatcher and Hallam to represent our house sale, and you really get what you pay for with them. Hayley provided a 5-star service from start to finish. She progressed each stage promptly and always responded to our emails and queries within 24 hours. She was friendly, helpful, patient and knowledgeable, and kept us updated throughout. Whenever she was away for any reason she let us know in advance and gave us an alternative contact. We cannot recommend her enough. Thank you Hayley and T&H!

Thank you Lizzie for your kind review. We are so pleased to see that Hayley did such a great job for you. We will be sure to pass on your feedback and than you for coming to us for your conveyancing. Kind regards Thatcher + Hallam
