Thank you David
This review is for a different branch.
David Winnett was the calm in a very turbulent sea. His advice was pragmatic, logical, designed to deescalate issues and simply move things forward. I felt his approach was tailored to the priorities that were important to me and I think that informed some of his decisions as he advocated for me and my children. I always felt confident in his advice and eventually we got there in the end !

Hopkins are the best solicitors we've ever used. We initially dropped off our paperwork for our house sale at the Kirkby branch and the receptionist was not only very friendly, she was very thorough in checking our paperwork and spotted where we needed to include additional information. Ruth Pilling led the conveyancing for our property and was excellent in dealing with enquiries from our buyer's solicitors, even spotting errors that the other practice had made. The communication from Kimberley Wykes by email and phone call was fantastic. I've no hesitation in recommending Hopkins in Kirkby; definitely a 5 star experience! Thank you.
A representative from Hopkins Solicitors Ltd responded to this review on 05 February, 2024:
Hi Lisa, thank you so very much for taking the time to post your review of our conveyancing services. Ruth and Kim will really enjoy reading this, especially on what is always a busy Monday morning! Kindest regards, Hopkins Solicitors

I would highly recommend Hopkins Solicitors for employment related legal matters.
