Hear what our clients say about us

When we were looking for someone to deal with the sale of our property Tracey Crolla was recommended to us. Luckily, it was an excellent recommendation and we never looked back. From the start to the completion – she was attentive in all the matters even when things were not straightforward.

Client testimonial Anonymous

In the spring Tracey Crolla dealt with the conveyancing of a property where I was the power of attorney for the elderly owner who had gone into a Care Home. It was an extremely stressful period for me but Tracey Crolla and her assistant Tracey Harding were both extremely understanding and helpful. Tracey Crolla kept me informed throughout the process and I wouldn’t hesitate to use HCR Law again or recommend them to others.

Client testimonial Kath Miles

Emily was fantastic throughout the sale of my leasehold flat. Having experienced poor service from a solicitor when purchasing the property, I really appreciated how smoothly Emily managed everything. She kept me regularly updated, responded quickly to any questions, and made the entire process stress-free from start to finish. I would highly recommend her services.

Client testimonial Residential purchase

House sale and purchase — 2nd sale and purchase Amanda has dealt with for us. Would ask her to help for a 3rd time too.

Client testimonial Sale and Purchase

Ever since I met Tracey – I forgot how many years ago – I always go back to her whenever I need my own solicitor. It is not easy to explain why I feel so good and what she has done right. Maybe it is her attitude to her work and general approach to her customer: caring and considerate but totally professional and business-like.

Client testimonial Wenyan Liu

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!

Client testimonial First-time purchase

I bought a house and sold a house last year, with Alice Gathern, of HCR Law, acting for me. From our first meeting she was direct, efficient and friendly. Both buying and selling progressed without delays, or unnecessary complications, or unnecessary communications. Her team, including Jennifer Middleton, seemed to work seamlessly with her – and me – ensuring that I remained confident throughout that the process was being managed and going through very professionally. I would use again without a second thought.

Client testimonial Sale & Purchase

From the very beginning of the process, Laura was helpful and approachable, answering our queries with patience and understanding. Unfortunately our buyer’s solicitor was not in the same league as Laura and was very difficult to communicate with, however Laura kept her cool and professionalism and finally got the deal done.

Client testimonial Flat sale

I have accumulated great confidence in HCR over the decades I’ve used them for my businesses, and now they have lived up to the quality, straight forwardness and direct advice I’m used to in a private property purchase transaction. Thank you Sarah and the team

Client testimonial Property purchase

I had the pleasure of working with Laura for the purchase of my flat, and I could not be happier with the service I received. From start to finish, Laura was professional, efficient, and incredibly helpful. I felt confident knowing that I had someone trustworthy guiding me through what can often be a complicated process.

Client testimonial Flat purchase

This is the second time I have had the pleasure of having Tracey Gibbons as my conveyancer; she is thorough, efficient, and communicative. Quite simply, I would hire her again and again, and I regularly recommend her to my friends and colleagues. Thank you, Tracey, you’re brilliant!

Client testimonial Conveyancing

Alison helped us with what was probably a fairly straightforward bit of conveyancing but it was all completed within the planned schedules with none of the unexpected delays you so often hear about with these things. She kept us informed at all stages and I’d have no hesitation in recommending her.
