We offer the broadest suite of legal services in the region and are very much embedded in the communities in which we have offices. Whilst some of the growth has been facilitated through acquiring other smaller firms, most has been organic as a consequence of clients recommending us or returning for additional services.

Good service on house sale.

After a few teething problems, getting lines of communication sorted, dealing with Becky Sparling, who was down to earth, clear and patient in answering all of our questions was a very positive experience.
This was despite a backdrop of a rise in Stamp Duty looming - which no doubt caused a general scramble to get everyone's sales tied up quickly.
Much appreciated Becky!

Above and beyond

My whole experience moving house was very challenging and stressful however Rebecca was incredible and went above and beyond to alleviate as much of that stress as she could, she worked incredibly hard to make sure our move went through on a very strict time scale and kept me in the loop at every stage, it was a battle but she got us there, not all solicitors especially in our chain are easy to deal with but Rebecca was brilliant and did more than she should have ever had to do, because she cared, and that meant a lot to us, i would highly recommend her she’s fantastic at her job and is a credit to her firm, thank you Rebecca!

Amazing experience buying my first home!

I would highly recommend using Ison Harrison for Conveyancing, the whole process of purchasing my first home was overwhelming however, Rebecca and Geraldine made everything so smooth and stress free from start to finish! Always professional, patient and informative and updated me every step of the way. Thank you for all your help, I couldn't have done it without you!

Amazing job

I had a wonderful experience with ison Harrison. Leah and Samantha were so lovely to me and my partner. I was a first time buyer so I had so many questions, they were so patient to respond anytime. Overall I will use them again and I will definitely recommend them to anyone. I picked up my keys today and I am over the moon.

Okay - Just does the job

Positive:

Immediate response, Friendly & approachable.

Downside:
Lack of information presentation skills - Need to work on improving the ways of giving/sharing/educating information to buyers. Often buyers left to read bunch of documents on their own. An initial summary would have given best reading experience.

Our buyers used this firm as a conveyancer and they were appaling. They were the source of numerous delays with all the other solicitors in the chain repeatedly stating that Ison Harrison were being either incompetent or deliberately obstructive. If in a chain and you see someone has appointed this firm I recommend you get them to change early to save a lot of pain later on.

Massive thanks to Emma clowe who earlier this year dealt with an agreement between myself and a vicious ex partner! Every step of the way she helped me understand the ins and outs and successfully got a fair and reasonable agreement in place. Thanks again Emma

Felt really well supported by Lauren Buchannen during the sale of my deceased mother's house. She gave regular updates, responded promptly to queries and was very helpful in some of the trickier negotiations with the buyer. An excellent service

A first class service provided by Lauren Buchanan at the Cross Gates branch. I have used Ison Harrison several times and would have no hesitation in recommending them for conveyancing.

About this branch

Description

We’ve all got a story of where we have come from, who we are and what makes us tick. This is ours. Over the past 45 years the firm has grown from a one man band to what is now a large regional law firm employing over 330 staff across 20 offices throughout Yorkshire. We offer the broadest suite of legal services in the region and are very much embedded in the communities in which we have offices. Whilst some of the growth has been facilitated through acquiring other smaller firms, most has been organic as a consequence of clients recommending us or returning for additional services. As you can see the firm has enjoyed substantial growth over the past decade. We have always taken the view that standing still as a business is not an option for us. We have seen many law firms either go out of business or reduce in size over the years and we were determined not to struggle in the same way. We have therefore constantly looked to improve. We have looked for opportunities to grow our profile, the number of our offices, and the breadth of services that we offer. We have looked for ways to improve our internal processes, employee engagement and how we deal and communicate with clients. All partners and managers recognise the importance of communication and set the tone within the firm employing honest, open and prompt communication with clients and colleagues alike.
