Positive: Professionalism
Hart Reade acted for me in the purchase of my businesses. They were knowledgeable and professional and I felt extremely well supported and in safe hands throughout the whole process. Communication and responsiveness was excellent and I would have no hesitation in recommending them.

I can’t thank Alexandra Funnell enough, from start to finish she was so professional, reassuring and so understanding which made me feel at instant ease. I couldn’t believe how quick all the paperwork was completed in a timely and efficient manner. I would recommend Alexandra to any family member or friends that found themselves needing representation.

I used Alexandra back in 2020 to help me deal with a child contact arrangement. From the very start I was welcomed with a friendly smile, and a honest outlook on my situation. I was given clear legal options I could choose to take and advice on what she thought would be the best and least disruptive route to take.
I am a natural worrier, my own mind blows everything out of proportion, but Alexandra was there each time to reassure my worries when I needed.
I simply couldn't recommend Alexandra enough! My issues were resolved quickly, efficiently and in a very cost effective manner.

I’m sure this company is OK, but after waiting now for three week for a call back regarding some representation I obviously can’t say.
Very poor, I can only assume my request wasn’t going to be profitable enough for them.
Edit. They did contact me but only after my review. They called on a withheld number that I nearly didn’t answer for obvious reasons (and why?), I was then told that he had called twice before & I hadn’t answered. Not true. My phone lists only 1 call from a withheld number on 4/11/21, no others. If he had called then why didn’t he leave a message? I was shocked to

We used Hart Reade when we brought our last property. We found the service to be very to be of a high standard. Calls we returned quickly, emails replied to swiftly. The communication was good, with my wife and I being kept up to date throughout the process. We completed our house purchase on Christmas Eve, which wouldn’t of been achieved without the dedication of the staff at Hart Reade. We would highly recommend them and will be using again in the future.

Greg Saunders at Heart Reade was the fourth solicitor I had instructed in my divorce case. My case was extremely difficult and frankly was beyond the skill set of the other solicitors even though they had been recommended. When Greg started working with me it was completely transformational. He cut through the complexities and got to the heart of what really mattered. He guided me professionally and skilfully to a conclusion, and I am extremely grateful for his care and attention throughout. If you need the very best, look no further. I am rarely unequivocal in my praise, but I have no hesitation

My experience with Hart Reade was in the area of family law, namely access arrangements for my partners children. I found them to be very well informed and excellent at what they do. Our solicitor kept in regular phone and letter contact as well as appointments. Appointments were usually available within a week or so of ringing to make one. The building itself is very pleasant, modern and comfortable, also central so nice and convenient. The reception staff have always been polite, although at times seemed a little snobby. The same goes for our solicitor. So on the whole a good practice. Private
