I was accused of a serious offence and as I was innocent HSR listened, and helped me, they made sure that the prosecution service could not get away with the lies that the police have accused me of and the audacity to cut out so much bodyworn footage, which if they got away with my life would have changed for the worst, thanks to HSR my case was dropped after 1 year of constant back and forth court appearances, I needed justice and justice was served.
Unfortunately these officers got away with their corrupt And treacherous actions. Anyways Thank you HSR! Credits to the HSR solicitors that helped building this case, in court Lawyers determination And thanks to Ryan for helping me mentally! They truly stood by me.

Saiqa Atif-Khan from HSR has been dealing with all my family's conveyance and house purchase legal requirements. She is always responsive, professional and kept us in the loop with exactly what we needed to do to complete a house purchase under tight time constraints as well as dealing with a challenging mortgage provider. Couldn't rate her more highly, our sincerest gratitude goes out to her as well as the rest of the HSR team that dealt with us. Abul and Rajia

Critical: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value Absolutely terrible and poor service. I have never come across such a terrible solicitors. I wouldn't even rate this firm 1 star. The worst solicitors in the UK. If you value your time then please stay away from these people.
