I was previously paying a local solicitor for a personal injury claim - this claim was receiving minimum responses - I was accruing more expenses all the time - the company I was claiming against were extremely uncooperative - so I discontinued this claim - losing thousands of pounds. I engaged Hewitts Solicitors on a "No Win No Fee Basis" They believed I had a strong claim - and took on my case. At all times I was fully informed of what the different stages & outcomes could be. I found the company to be both extremely friendly & professional. The case was won - the company settled out of court - after three years - I was very pleased by the outcome.

In 2020 our neighbour threatened to remove guttering, soffits and fascia from one side of our home which overhang into his air space. The conveyancing solicitor was found to have been lacking attentiveness to the information provided on the Property Information form by the previous owner regarding disputes. Their insurers have accepted that there was negligence. Harrowells Ltd were engaged to act on our behalf in this matter to try to resolve the issue legally, including the offer of a payment and legal costs to the neighbour, who declined them. However, a claim for damages for negligence by the conveyancing solicitor has been successful. This, over a period of four years.

We've been working with Nelsons Solicitors on a long-running negligence case, and I can’t speak highly enough of Carolle White, who has been our main solicitor throughout. She has consistently shown professionalism, respect, and genuine kindness during what has been a very difficult time for us. Her support, clarity, and dedication have made a real difference, and we’re very grateful for all her hard work. Highly recommended.
