Prompt and efficient

Phil Clarke handled a recent breach-of-contract dispute for us and proved both quick and efficient throughout. He explained our options in clear, practical terms, set realistic expectations, and kept us updated at every stage. Thanks to his approach the matter was settled swiftly, saving us time and additional costs.

Acquisition went perfectly

Deborah and her team provided fantastic support on a company acquisition for me. Pulling together a multi-disciplinary team to advise and carry out the transaction effectively with just the right balance of hand-holding, legal advice, and commercial pragmatism. A few sensitive issues arose that were dealt with sympathetically whilst ensuring my risk was mitigated sufficiently. The transaction completed on the day I asked for so I couldn't be happier.

A highly rated service

From the moment of contacting Eaton Smith, to enquire if I could appoint them as my solicitors for the sale of a woodland which I owned, I was reassured. They were helpful, personable and well informed. I got given an estimate of what the work would cost and I'm pleased to say that figure was kept to. All staff involved were truly helpful and did their best to keep me informed at all times. Ian, Martha and Anne in particular, you outdid my expectations and I would and will happily retain your services f o r any future legal matters Thank you all enormously for a happy ending.

IAN HOLDSWORTH (solicitor) and ANNE WILSON (PA) have done a fantastic job with the purchase of our new woodland! I never thought I'd ever be doing a review for a solicitors! As I've fallen out with all of them due to their extra hidden costs or "extra photocoping" 🙄 However, I can only recommend these two people as they are the only ones I actually dealt with. Ian spent the time and effort, explaining the whole procedure. He's a proper down to earth Yorkshire man! One of the main reasons for doing this review, is because he kept to his word and didn't charge any hidden fees! And in my book, that means a lot! 😀 Once again, thank you for being the best team I've ever come across! We'll definitely use you again! Nigel & Claire 😊

Hi Nigel, thank you so much for taking the time to leave us this amazing feedback! We’re really grateful and appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with Ian and Anne.

I would highly recommend Eaton Smith for commercial disputes. Philip reacted quickly to an issue that was causing me a lot of stress. Within 24 hours he had resolved the main problem. Dealing with Philip / Eaton Smith has been stress free and would certainly use again if I needed to.

Highly recommend!

I cannot thank Lindsay and Zahra enough for the support they provided throughout. From the very beginning, Lindsay took the time to prepare me thoroughly for the court process, answering my questions, explaining everything clearly, and helping me feel as confident and reassured as possible during what was a very stressful time. On the day of the hearing, Zahra represented me with professionalism, compassion, and confidence. She took the time to listen to me, understood my concerns, and made sure I felt supported throughout the proceedings. I was treated with kindness, respect, and understanding every step of the way. Their dedication and support made a significant difference to my experience, and I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of family law representation.

Thank you

Abby, you took your time to explain complex legal jargon in plain English, return emails or calls promptly and show genuine empathy during personal matters like when the person showed their vulnerabilities around the domestic abuse. (The person has asked me to say to you) You successful resolved something that was going on in my life for a longtime. Thank you, Abby, for leaving me feeling relieved, valued and well-supported through the process.

Eaton Smith experience

Eaton Smiths were excellent from start to finish. Hayatun Barker was friendly, knowledgeable, professional, and incredibly efficient throughout the purchase of our new-build home. She kept us updated, responded quickly to our questions, and completed everything in just four weeks, which was amazing. She made the whole process smooth and stress-free. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend both Hayatun and Eaton Smiths. Thank you!

James Johnston dealt with my personal injury claim. I shall miss his emails - I thoroughly enjoyed how he presented me with options - allowing me to make choices that were right for me as he worked through my claim following my accident. He was also very efficient and responsive to any emails I sent. I would be very happy to recommend to anyone dealing with their personal injury claim
