From the very start, I felt I had full confidence in the practice. I was extremely comfortable with how they dealt with everything from the outset and reassured me in all matters. They had a plan of action and dealt concisely with each matter as it arose.

For me, Kate Hallifax, at the Cheltenham office, was professional, approachable and her expertise immeasurable. To have someone on your side is such a relief when you have never dealt with anything like it before, and they confidently deal with everything. The whole team worked well and certainly went above and beyond on several occasions.

Andrew Cave is an experienced property litigator and a safe pair of hands. He applies a lot of common sense and is outcomes focused.

We were impressed with the manner in which both Steven and Ian were quickly able to appreciate and understand the key commercial and family dynamic issues and turn this into a transparent and effective strategy. Throughout the whole process, they presented a professional and firmly assertive approach which resulted in a settlement being achieved in an excellently negotiated manner.

We would have no hesitation, and indeed it is a great pleasure, in recommending HCR to any prospective client, as they provide an increasingly rare commodity – effective litigation combined with integrity, transparency, competitive fees and excellent client communication.

I want to thank Ian for all his time, patience & efforts. He has been a delight to deal with, and I would recommend his services to anyone in need of them.
