Fantastic support in the sale of London Flat

Laura has been brilliant throughout the sale of my leasehold flat in London. She guided us through the complexities of the leasehold transfer process and the requirements for demonstrating compliance with the Building Safety Act. Her knowledge, professionalism and responsiveness made a potentially stressful process much easier to manage. I would highly recommend Laura and look forward to working with her again in the future.

Laura is incredible.

Laura was recommended to us as first time buyers and we don’t know what we would have done without her. We felt at ease the entire process, always felt like we could jump on a call and felt like we learnt a lot from the experience. We would recommend Laura to anyone and everyone - she is incredible and just an absolute delight to work with. We will miss our frequent chats with Laura - that is how you know you found the right lawyer!

Consistently goes above and beyond

Have now had the benefit of Laura's support on a number of transactions and she consistently goes above and beyond to take the burden of the process away from you and to make up for the slack of other parties involved in the process. Almost as sure as any potential problem arises, Laura has either come up with a solution or has the alternatives available to provide you with a sensible option not losing sight of the objective to get the deal done effectively. All the time keeping you adequately appraised of progress. Could not recommend highly enough.

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.

During a particularly challenging and stressful period, Kash Dosanjh was an invaluable support. His professionalism, empathy, and expertise helped transform an overwhelming situation into something I could face with clarity and confidence. He listened with care, addressed every concern I raised, and offered thoughtful, practical advice that always felt tailored to my needs. Kash took the time to walk me through every step of the process, ensuring I fully understood my rights and options. This gave me the confidence to make informed decisions. I highly recommend Kash to anyone in need of a professional, empathetic, and responsive employment solicitor.

Hi Rebecca, Thank you for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and generous review. We're so pleased to hear that Kash was able to provide the support, clarity, and guidance you needed during a difficult period. Should you ever need assistance in the future, we're always here to help. Best wishes, The Wright Hassall Team

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

The team at Wright Hassall have been incredibly helpful each time we have had to go through the process of renewing our UK Visa. Daniaal recently helped us through the ILR application process and he made everything incredibly seamless, providing us with the right level of support and professionalism throughout the journey. If you have any immigration support needs in the UK, I would highly recommend working with the team. Thanks, Daniaal!

I had an excellent experience with Matt Gillett at HCR Law. From the outset, he took the time to really listen to my concerns and understand the issues I was facing. He provided calm, clear, and practical advice that helped me better understand a complex workplace legal matter. What stood out most was the effort Matt made to ensure I fully understood my options and the legal position. He was patient, professional, and genuinely invested in helping me. He went above and beyond what I expected, and far more than any other firm I contacted regarding my issue. I am extremely grateful for his support and would highly recommend Matt Gillett to anyone seeking knowledgeable, approachable, and client-focused legal advice.

Dionne Russell and Matthew Davies were absolutely fantastic in helping me and my family sort out our visa. From start to finish, they were professional, responsive, and incredibly supportive throughout what can often be a stressful process. They took the time to clearly explain each step, ensured all our documents were in order, and were always available to answer any questions we had. Their attention to detail and commitment really gave us peace of mind. Thanks to their help, everything went through smoothly. I genuinely appreciate all their effort and would highly recommend them to anyone needing visa assistance.
