Darren FlightStuart Cooper

Tagged solicitors Darren Flight and Stuart Cooper

When I was 17 I was put on remand, using (NOT!!!!HCN). solicitors handed to me bye the police themselves being lead to believe prison was my only outcome. However after 5months on remand we met Darren and Stuart from HCN, they busted the case right open every single detail of this catalogue of documents they crushed it ! From then on I’ve appeared in court I’d say around 20 times and I’ve never not used these guys! 10 years and many court appearances later I still have my freedom and 110% faith in the whole team I’ve recommended them to multiple friends who also only have good things to say. All of which still use HCN today. Id confidently go as far as saying they are the best in Essex! Every single member of the team I have worked with has given their absolute all. I can say for sure that every single time I enter a court room with HCN behind me I feel confident and comfortable knowing the team will give there all and have my back through the entire process and after! Thanks HCN

Tom Brett

Tagged solicitor Tom Brett

Tom was empathic and appreciated our distress. My granddaughter is autistic with learning difficulties and is physically disabled. She was accused of stalking and then the police turned the accusation into a harassment investigation. Tom was so kind and helped us prepare a written representation for the CPS. After 5 months the police dropped the case. Tom's advice was invaluable in helping to convey all the facts to the police.
