Truly grateful

I went to Henry Hyams to be my representatives at family court. I had Shaista as my solicitor and I'm glad that I did. She was very professional, punctual and intricate with all the complicated details and always gave me sound advice. I cannot thank her enough for her service and highly recommend her to anyone who may need a solicitor for family court.

Henry Hyams have supported,advised and guided me through many years of family court hearings.Without them I would be absolutely lost and see no end to the battles of gaining custody back from my ex partner who kept breaching orders set in place.

I cannot thank them enough for all they have done over these long years.My last solicitor Shaista Shahnaz is a very professional,kind and caring solicitor who gave great legal advice,support and guidance when i needed it the most and is an absolute credit to this firm.

As is Ryan Wilson who went above and beyond when he covered one hearing, he is also an extremely hard working solicitor who is very kind and professional and is committed to getting the best outcome possible. He is also a credit this this firm.

I cannot thank them all enough for there hard work,time,commitment and patience over this long journey.In the nicest way possible, I really do hope I do not need to call on them again in the future but I would not hesitate to do so if I did.

I highly recommend this firm and its great team of solicitors.

Thank you

Shaista is the most down to earth caring solicitor she helped me through one of the most hardest experiences of my life and helped me all the way. She rang me to make sure I was ok. She checked on my kids and she did everything she could to help me. She had no judgement towards me and really did help me I can not thank her enough!
