Stephen Hattersley of Wildwoo Legal is…Excellent
Stephen Hattersley of Wildwood Legal is Professional, hardworking and for my Husband and our Family he was simply the best. Stephen took my Husband’s Case on after we had been treated really poorly by a well known Legal Firm. Stephen was a Star and kept going and us going through the time it took to get the result we needed and deserved. We can’t thank Stephen enough and whole heartedly recommend Stephen Hattersley. We will be forever grateful 😊 Stephen is such a warm, compassionate lovely Guy. Excellent Review well deserved.
An excellent result
Stephen took on my case where I believe many would not. He stuck at it, keeping me informed throughout the process, ultimately getting a result which at times seemed unlikely. Talked me through and assured me through a couple of meltdowns I had. Good man and much appreciated his determination.

Excellent service, delivered in particularly trying times, and got a result way better than I'd hoped for. And cheaper than the competition, too!
I chose Stephen to act on behalf of me…
I chose Stephen to act on behalf of me for an accident that I had whilst out shopping.
He has been absolutely brilliant and I would recommend him to anyone! The result he got for me was fantastic and although I didn’t meet him in person he was an absolute pleasure and very efficient with all correspondence.
Thank you so much Stephen.
Excellent service & experience
Excellent, friendly professional service, always willing to help and (it has to be said) it always felt like the firm was prepared to go that extra mile. Stephen's work helped give closure to a painful process. Prompt, diligent, attentive and always prepared to listen & help with honest advice explained in layman's terms. Very highly recommended
I highly recommend this company and Mr. Hattersley
I highly recommend this company and Mr. Hattersley. They provide excellent service, communication is great and they are committed to helping you. Thank you again!
Thank you Stephen - you are the best
I broke my ankle during a flight journey. When I was exploring the options to seek compensation for my injury, to my surprise I was turned down by at least 10 solicitors or compensation claiming websites
Fortunately I came across Stephen and rest is a pleasant, warm and the best I could have ever imagined, experience
Stephen has been a perfect blend of a thorough professional, a friend and a guide and he has played these roles during my compensation journey
His guidance and advises have helped me not only to put a claim at first place (Which no other solicitor was keen to take) but to get the best possible compensation in the end
I am so lucky and happy that I came in contact with Stephen
Thank you so much Stephen
Great communication
Great communication, kept me continuously informed of the the legal process. Stephen is friendly and personal who gave straight forward professional advice. I would highly recommend his services.
I’d like to write about my experience…
I’d like to write about my experience with Stephen Hattersley from wildwood legal solicitors. I had an operation on my right elbow which I had pain in and difficulty lifting. I went for a routine operation which I thought, and a few months after, my elbow was in a worse condition. I was not happy with the excuses I was been given .So I sought legal advise , Stephen Hattersley came highly recommended from wildwood legal. After speaking with Stephen and explaining the situation, Stephen took total control and with his professionalism and knowledge left me feeling at ease and in safe hands. Stephen kept me up to to date at all times. I would definitely recommend Stephen to anyone that needs legal advise. I won my claim all thanks to Stephen Hattersley. Who I now see as a good friend.
Highly Recommended Legal Team
Stephen handled our case and circumstances with excellent understanding and compassion. His recommendations and advice throughout the drawn out process were outstanding and, in all cases, absolutely correct. They demonstrated diligence, knowledge and, above all, perseverance, in the light of continual delays and blocking tactics by the defendant's legal team.
We would highly recommend the Wildwood Legal team to anyone who has a genuine case and wishes to have it handled with the utmost professionalism.
Many thanks from all our Family.
Negligence Claim…
This was a negligence claim against Spire Hospitals.
Stephen was exceptionally helpful with the claim and kept us informed all the way through to a successful conclusion. Stephen is a very personable young man and we cannot thank him enough for his work in this case. WELL DONE.
Thank you Wildwood Legal!
I cannot thank Stephen Hattersley enough for his help, his knowledgeable advice and his guidance at a time that was very difficult and stressful.
From my very first meeting with Stephen I knew I was in the right hands, he listened carefully, explained my legal situation and gave his advice on the best course of action, I felt very reassured knowing that he would be representing me.
Throughout a very trying period Stephen was always there with further reassurance and advice when needed, he kept me up to date at all times and offered various 'options'.
Should I need legal advice at any time in the future I would not hesitate to contact Wildwood Legal, and would highly recommend Stephen Hattersley.
I am very grateful for his services, his professional, yet friendly care and his great knowledge and sound legal representation. Thank you Stephen.
I had a lot of problems with the…
I had a lot of problems with the repairs to my damaged Scooter. I contacted Wildwood Legal and i was given some invaluable advice, in my time of need.
I could not have done it without them.
The end result was a brand new scooter
Extremely professional and caring Solicitor !
Stephen took on my case after I was involved in a car accident.
I was very distraught at this time and emotionally drained - however - he allayed my worries. His understanding and compassion was truly amazing.
Stephen fought my case valiantly and I had total faith in him.
His expertise and knowledge was vast.
I would have no hesitation in recommending him - as he is a credit to his profession. His hard work and determination ended in an excellent outcome for myself and I am most grateful for that - thank you.
Would give ten stars if I could.
I approached Stephen Hattersley at Wildwood legal having suffered a hand injury through a faulty device and getting nowhere with the manufacturers. Stephen took my case (which a couple of the big names had showed no interest in), and from the beginning I felt that I was in safe hands. Every phone call returned and letters answered in record time. He kept me informed at every stage as soon as the defendant responded. Fees are reasonable and all terms are explained clearly. He was also practical and realistic about the possible outcomes, and this was the advice I valued most. Personal injury claims can take a long time, are incredibly stressful, and the outcome is rarely certain - you need a solicitor who can keep fighting on your behalf even if you feel like giving up, Stephen did all this and more. My claim was settled very satisfactorily a few months ago and if you are in a similar situation, I strongly recommend that you get in touch with Wildwood Legal and discuss your case with Stephen. Thanks to Wildwood I now have enough seed capital to start up a new business.
