Description

In 1930 our founder Henry Hyams opened a small office in Leeds to serve the local community. Understanding the difficulties facing ordinary people and businesses he developed a general practice offering legal services with a strong emphasis on justice and fair play. From that small office the business expanded to become a leading legal practice in the city centre, building on an ethos of hard work and client focussed advice. Those core principles upon which Henry built his practice remain the focus of the service we provide today. Fast, efficient, yet caring, we will use all our skills, experience and resources to help you achieve the best possible outcome. From personal injury to property; regulatory prosecution to driving offences; divorce to immigration, we offer the same high quality service to private and commercial clients alike.

Late Uncles Estate

I found Nicola Hartley to be professional, respectful, compassionate regarding the delicate situation in a family bereavement. She followed my Uncle's last wishes with integrity. They untook the whole process, which took alot of pressure from family members as the executors lived in Scotland.

Best solicitor!!

Went through a horrendous case with regards to a family law case. Oliver was absolutely fantastic. I can’t fault his expertise and his guidance throughout the whole court case. He stood by me and was there when I needed a talk and some reassurance. He was there every step of the legal proceedings and I would 100% recommend him for any family law related issues. So happy with the outcome of my case thanks to him and the firm!

Shaista has assisted me over a number of years and has always been so helpful and explained everything to me and answered any questions I had regarding the matter. She always went above and beyond for me and it felt like what ever I requested wasn't too much trouble for her. She always achieved the desired outcome for me and I would not hesitate to contact her again if ever needed. I appreciate massively what she has done for me over the years and would highly recommend her.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Lisa Auty for her incredible support throughout my horrendous divorce. Not only did she handle every aspect of the process with professionalism and expertise, but she also supported me emotionally during what was one of the most difficult times of my life. I was genuinely terrified of the unknown, and Lisa guided me through it all with strength, patience, and compassion. She is a true credit to Henry Hyams Solicitors in Leeds. Lisa stood strong against every challenge and overcame the lies and difficulties that arose along the way. I cannot put into words how much she has done for me. Her dedication, care, and unwavering support meant everything. With so much love and appreciation, thank you, Lisa. Kelly Ford

I was passed Helen’s details on from a friend who had used Henry Hyams before I can honestly say it’s very difficult to give trust to someone when it comes to your children’s lives but I can wholeheartedly say that Helen has dealt with my family law proceedings in such a professional manner but also like a mother fighting for her own children. Helen has been amazing not only for the outcome to be more than what I expected it to be but because she too was able to help and support me! Thank you just doesn’t seem to be enough but I truly mean it from the bottom of my heart, Thank you and keep doing what you do! I can’t recommend you enough!! Caroline x

Sale of our property and purchase of another

I must say, our contacts at Hyams (Zaynam and Emily) have been fantastic in dealing with our transactions. Emily explained all clearly in detail (and repeatedly in order to ensure we fully understood what was happening), has been readily available when direct conversations have been needed, and has acted cooly and calmly, whilst putting pressure when and where needed.

Henry Hyams were fantastic from the start right through to completion of my house purchase. They acted swiftly across all areas and advised expertly throughout. Emily and Zaynab were fantastic in handling the conveyance and replied to my queries in excellent time. I was very impressed with how they conducted the conveyance and were proactive in providing next steps, advice and timelines. They were excellent value too as they were quite a bit cheaper than other rival legal firms. I would highly recommend Henry Hyams for conveyancing.
