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.

She is incredibly knowledgeable, experienced and patient, taking the time to explain complex legal jargon in simple, plain language, making the entire process efficient and stress-free. She listened carefully to my wishes and structured everything perfectly and that is the key standard for a very important decision document. Furthermore the turn-around time for the draft and final documents was fantastic. A Five-star service! As I say, I highly recommend her to anyone looking to sort out their estate.

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.

We used Henry Hyams for two successive Probate applications for my late parents and were supported throughout the processes by Nicola Hartley who was fantastic to work with. Her knowledge and experience came to the for navigating the various court and tax issues and led to us having a good outcome. She was very responsive to questions that we had and gave us the confidence that we were in very safe hands and managed the whole process efficiently and with high levels of professionalism. I can't recommend Nicola highly enough for dealing with Estates matters.

Thank you for your 5 star review and kind words following the experience with Nicola regarding the probate applications for your parents.

Robert Sparks - Perfection!

Robert provided exceptional guidance and service at a difficult time. In the middle of a sale of our business an issue with an employee visa came to light. Robert immediately knew the issue in hand and how to resolve it quickly. It was very reassuring to be in such experienced hands, and Robert efficiently resolved any issues. Thank you.
