Fantastic experience - conveyancing

Sarah was very professional and was a pleasure to deal with. We communicated mainly via email but when I had questions about the process she was only a phone call away, and was patient explaining things to this first time buyer! She provided updates at least weekly which was much appreciated. When our sellers presented a sudden decline for exchange she managed to get everything sorted in a very short timescale. We really appreciate her going above and beyond and would highly recommend HCR Law.

Great experience with Alison and would thoroughly recommend. She helped us complete on both our sale and purchase. A few issues came up on our sale specific to estate management covenants on our title deeds Rather than letting things drift Alison was proactive throughout and managed/prompted all other parties to push towards completion. Clarified any questions we had in an easy to understand manner.

Used Sarah Loveridge for the sale and purchase of property. She was a consummate professional throughout, despite having to deal with some less that competent solicitors in the chain. Can't recommend her highly enough. She also dealt with the sale of my brother's property and he had a similar experience

We instructed Wright Hassall over two and a half years ago to handle the first registration and transfer of property following my husband’s death. The property is still not registered — let alone transferred. For months, I was told they were “waiting for the Land Registry”. Eventually, they stopped responding altogether. I lodged a formal complaint at the end of June 2025, but to this day, I have received no meaningful update — only vague assurances that the matter is “being looked into.” After speaking directly with HM Land Registry today, I discovered they have been waiting since February 2025 for additional information they requested from Wright Hassall, and the firm is yet to provide it. This level of incompetence and poor communication has caused me immense stress on top of the grief of widowhood. I am unable to sell the property because of their inaction, and their handling of this matter has been nothing short of unacceptable. If you value efficiency, transparency, and professionalism, I would strongly advise caution before instructing this firm.

It has been an absolute pleasure working with Tom from HCR legal. Tom has helped me with the remortgage of my property and it has been a smooth process from start to finish. Tom is the first ever Solicitor that has actually fulfilled their promise/ timescale and has met deadlines which is shocking as everyone knows how long Solicitors take. Tom has provided excellent customer service, he has a very positive attitude and has always provided me with clarity when I have raised something. Thank you for also providing such quick responses and for updating me regularly on the situation. I will be definitely using this firm again, thank you again Tom.

A representative from HCR Legal LLP responded to this review

We're delighted to hear that Tom and the team were able to assist you with remortgaging your property, Raveena. We will be sure to pass on your positive feedback regarding their timely responses and positive attitude throughout and look forward to working with you on any future transactions.

We recently had to work with Richard Phillips and his team at Wright Hassall in Leamington Spa, regarding a land ownership issue. The issue was resolved in our favour and we were more than happy with the work that Richard and his team carried out. He kept us informed during the process and the final invoice for completing the work was acceptable. I would recommend Wright Hassall if you need help with a land issue.

Hi Joe, Thank you for your fantastic five-star review! We're thrilled to hear that Richard and the team provided you with such a great experience. Your kind words mean a lot to us, and we truly appreciate your support. If you ever need anything in the future, we’re always here to help. Best wishes, The Wright Hassall Team

I had a fantastic experience with HCR Law my immigration process. The team was professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely supportive from start to finish. They made what could have been a stressful and complicated process feel much more straightforward and manageable. Thanks Dionne! I really appreciated their attention to detail, clear communication, and willingness to answer all my questions. The support I received gave me confidence and peace of mind during the entire process. I would highly recommend HCR Law to anyone looking for reliable, professional, and friendly assistance with their immigration needs. Excellent service from start to finish!
