Henry Hyams Limited
01132432288
In 1930 our founder Henry Hyams opened a small office in Leeds to serve the local community. Understanding the difficulties facing ordinary people and businesses he developed a general practice offering legal services with a strong emphasis on justice and fair play. From that small office the business expanded to become a leading legal practice in the city centre, building on an ethos of hard work and client focussed advice. Those core principles upon which Henry built his practice remain the focus of the service we provide today. Fast, efficient, yet caring, we will use all our skills, experience and resources to help you achieve the best possible outcome. From personal injury to property; regulatory prosecution to driving offences; divorce to immigration, we offer the same high quality service to private and commercial clients alike. Read more...

Will and Probate Execution
Nicola Hartley handled our sister's Will and Probate after her death. She was superb. Always calm, professional and sympathetic in the way she handled every aspect of our case.
She worked on a fee basis, as opposed to percentage of the value of the estate, so she was great value to. an't speak highly enough of the service we have received.
A representative from Henry Hyams Limited responded to this review on 09 December, 2024:
Thank you Andrew for your review of the service you have received from Nicola, and the comments regarding how sympathetic, calm and professional Nicola was during the process of dealing with your sisters probate, at a understandably a difficult time.

Outstanding service!
I recently contacted Nicola Hartley from Henry Hyams in relation to setting up Lasting Power of Attorney for my mother. From that first contact to the conclusion of business I found her a pleasure to deal with.
Nicola took her time to explain every step of the process in clear terms, ensuring that I was fully informed and comfortable throughout. She was able to answer any question I had immediately, displaying an obvious mastery of her craft.
She displayed professionalism, humility and empathy in equal measure which is a rare quality.
I have no hesitation in recommending Henry Hyams and Nicola in particular, she is a credit to the firm!
A representative from Henry Hyams Limited responded to this review on 22 November, 2024:
Thank you for your review and kind words James, we are pleased that you felt fully informed and comfortable during the application of the Lasting Power of Attorney for your mother. If we can be of any assistance in the future, please do come back to us.
