Amazing

Kayleigh is absolutely amazing, I was so nervous but she made me feel so comfortable and reassured. During the case she would ask me if I was ok which meant a lot. I would highly recommend her to anyone going though a hard time.

Sale and purchase of our properties

We have used Hay and Kilner several times now and for good reason. Moving house can be a very stressful time but Claire Simmons and her team, especially Lynn Liddle, have been excellent throughout.
I normally hesitate before giving a review in general, but in this case I have no hesitation in giving my wholehearted recommendation for this firm and not simply confined to house purchase.

Excellent - would recommend

Tom has been excellent in dealing with a transfer of trust due to the previous company going into liquidation.
It’s been a worrying time not knowing what would happen but Tom was very knowledgeable, kept us as ease and was good with communication and keeping us updated. 10/10 and would recommend his services.

Excellent Professional Service

Georgia and her team were excellent! They kept my husband and I informed at all times of the progress made, nudged the other side where appropriate, understood completely what service we required and had a genuine interest in our issues. Most of all though, Georgia is a very approachable, knowledgeable and practical solicitor and I thoroughly recommend her for any commercial property issues.

Daunting subject but guided through with empathy

I cannot recommend Hay & Kilner enough, my subject which was discussed, can at times be difficult to talk about, and even though I have discussed the said issue in the past, quite a few legal issues where raised which I had not thought about. I now feel calm and at peace about dealing with the issues and sorting my legal affairs to my satisfaction.

Inital advice appointment

This was my first inital appointment with Kayleigh at Hay & Kilner to discuss my divorce. She was extremely knowlegable and answered all my questions. She made me feel at ease straight away. I can't recommend her enough.

Granting of a new Lease to Blue Chip Tenant

Just want to say a huge thank you to Georgia Whitfield for the first class (five star) service provided to our firm.
So so prompt, punctual and very professional throughout with the legal advice provided.
Basically, adding significant commercial value to our property portfolio with the legal advice given.
I strongly recommend any commercial Landlord to give an opportunity to Georgia to handle your granting of a new commercial lease or renewing a lease.

The help that Hay & Kilmer gave to us when we were fighting a Court case was absolutely invaluable., in particular I would like to give thanks to Louisa Beresford, who guided us through what was a very difficult time. Her commitment and integrity were absolutely second to none!
We won the case hands down but we could not have done it with her legal expertise and guidance.
I can unreservedly recommend this Firm!!
