This is the 1st time I've had to discuss legal matters directly with a Solicitor - and so far so good. Melissa has been most professional and took time to explain all the details in a straightforward manner.
Most helpful.

HSR handled a complicated, Lease surrender and new Lease arrangement on our behalf. Melissa Squires was, diligent throughout and the communication at all times, has been excellent.

We will definitely use HSR, and in particular Melissa, for any future support.

HSR are setting the bar!

Since getting into business around 9 years ago I have used the services of several different law firms before moving to HSR and being left in the very capable hands of Melissa Squires.
In the past I had always came up against the same frustrations (Timescales overrunning, no return phone call when ringing the office, no reply to emails etc etc…).

I haven’t experienced any of this at HSR, in fact it’s quite the opposite.
I can’t praise Melissa and her team enough for the way that they operate and for their approach legal work.
I no longer have to take the time to call/email and push sales along (in fact she will email to remind me of upcoming important dates) and if I do need to call for advice or discuss a concern I either get straight through or receive a call back in good time in which my concerns are met with a positive proactive approach and it’s clear that there is a whole wealth of knowledge on different matters amongst the whole team should I need it to aid me or help represent my company in the best possible way with any business transactions.

They are a breath of fresh air 👏.

I have had the pleasure of working with Melissa a number of times now. She has excellent lines of communication at all times which is imperative to keep the sales moving in a timely manner.
She is friendly, approachable and super helpful.
I would recommend Melissa and HSR Law to anyone looking for legal representation and I hope to work with her again soon.

To enhance our opportunity for growth and security, we have just completed the sale of 75% of our business to an international company. We engaged the services of Andrew Best at HSR Law Solicitors (Doncaster) who has a wealth of experience in this specialist field. He guided us from start to finish, working closely with us to ensure all our expectations were delivered. Both Melissa Squires and Clair Marsden also worked alongside Andrew in supporting this sale. The whole process, although not without its complications in some areas, was conducted in a professional, friendly and supportive manner, providing us (the sellers) with a very satisfactory experience from start to sale.

Thank you HSR Law Solicitors. We will have no hesitation in recommending your services to other businesses and a special thanks to Andrew, Melissa and Clair.

We have used HSR Law on a number of occasions now and can not rate them highly enough.
Rachel Cooke has been nothing but positive and efficient in dealing with our conveyancing. She handles everything professionally whilst being friendly and helpful through the process.
Also thanks to Matthew White, Chris Harvey, Melissa Squires, Sophie Allerton and lovely Lynn on Reception. A great team! 😉
