    Great professionalism

    Debbie Beswick handled the sale of a property which was the main asset of an estate of which I was executor. It was quite complex with probate issues and different law firms acting for the buyer and the housing association which was part owner. Debbie ensured the transaction was completed satisfactorily and in a timely manner.

    Clinical Negligence

    When I approached Gerard Sanders with my clinical negligence claim, I did not know what to expect or the likelihood of success. The professionalism of Gerard and his team was exceptional throughout. The thoroughness of preparation, investigation, communication and gathering of information ultimately provided a level of success beyond my expectations. Gerard displayed an empathy and warmth that certainly helped to ease some of the distress of the unfortunate situation that had occurred.

      Very easy to work with

      James is very approachable, pragmatic and commercial. The matter was not straightforward, with a number of different personalities involved, but he took the time to understand exactly what we were trying to achieve. Rather than taking the easy option, worked with us to try and find the right solution, helping to manage differing views and keeping things moving to try and reach a conclusion.

      Slow and slapdash service

      After my father's death, Hart Brown Cranleigh acted as executor on behalf of my elderly mother. The will could not have been simpler as she was the sole beneficiary, all accounts and property were in joint names and there were no debts. It took almost two months before a single action was taken by anyone at Hart Brown, banks and insurance companies were not contacted in a timely manner. Emails and calls were not replied to, out of office auto-emails were incorrect, family and client were not kept informed of progress. Client service charter was not adhered to, documents contained factual inaccuracies and final bill was incorrect. I would never use this law firm again.

      Employment Dispute

      I can not thank Hart Brown and particularly Louisa Keville enough. During my employment dispute she took the time to listen and explain my options, providing support and candid advice during a very painful and stressful situation. She brought it to a positive conclusion quickly and as painlessly as possible. I would not hesitate to recommend Louisa Keville.

      ★★★★★ Excellent service from start to finish ★★★★★ I cannot recommend Hart Brown highly enough. They guided me through a particularly complex and challenging property transaction, involving a number of unusual legal and practical issues, but the team handled everything with exceptional attention to detail and professionalism throughout. Communication was consistently excellent — I was kept informed at every stage, questions were answered promptly and clearly, and nothing ever seemed too much trouble. Despite the complexity of the matter, everyone I dealt with was friendly, approachable and genuinely helpful. A special thank you to Lucy and the whole team for their hard work, patience and meticulous attention to detail in getting the transaction successfully over the line. It was a long and complicated process, and I always felt that the details were being properly looked after. A thoroughly professional, friendly and highly recommended firm.

      Appalling. Called Monday morning and no one there. Perhaps all working from home

      We have investigated this and we have found the log of your call on Monday. It says the line disconnected when the receptionist tried to transfer your call to the correct team. We have asked for this to be looked into as a matter of urgency with our call provider - we do not want clients experiencing issues like this. A member of our team will be calling you this morning to sincerely apologise.

      I have always found James and the team to be very proactive and understanding of the oddities of the business and those within it. James is also very patient given that transactions although sometimes fast paced can also be very slow while different personalities are navigated.
