I have very recently used Hatton James and I cannot thank them enough for bringing my matter to a swift and successful conclusion.

Gareth, in particular has been kind, exceptionally professional, thorough and more importantly put my mind at ease.

I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending this Firm to anyone.

Thank you again to Gareth and the Team at Hatton James.

No other firm comes close in comparison.

Where do i start? Well all i can say is that Hatton James legal is the most honest, efficient, hard working and most friendliest firm that i have ever employed.
The level of excellence is outstanding, from initial contact all the way down to final result. In my mind 5 stars simply isn't enough. The time-frame in which my case was completed and resolved in was phenomenal. Before approaching Hatton James, i had given my case to a different firm and was left in the dark for over 10 months, costing me a fortune and a complete waste of my time. However after being referred by a friend (who also said that this is the best company to employ), my case has been resolved in a matter of weeks and the level of detail that my case handler had put into the work to achieve the outcome has left me happier than ever. Thank you Hatton James, i will be using you again in the future if the need arises and certainly be referring you to anyone that i cross paths with. Keep up the fantastic work.

Hatton James were able to help me out with an urgent employment matter. Having contacted them at 4.30pm on the Friday they were able to give me advice over the phone and then via email over the weekend before meeting at 9.30 on the Monday morning to get the matter resolved and avoid a potentially very costly trip to the High Court the next day. Whilst their fees were more than initially expected it was a complex case that required a very quick turn around and they were able to recover some of the costs from my former employer. Highly recommended.

EXCELLENT ALL ROUND SERVICE

Speed of communication, both with me and my employers was excellent. I found all members of the organisation to be approachable, accessible, and when dealing with me, were both honest and able to speak 'jargon free'. On the last point though, it was clear to me that everyone was very knowledgeable and this helped in achieving a good outcome for me.
