Client Comments
- “I’ve been very pleased with the service from Hodge Jones & Allen, in particular from Brenel Menezes. I’ve been kept informed throughout the process with a positive outcome. Would have no hesitation recommending this firm.”
- “My case was related to a claim against a council within London. The service was excellent, their practical approach and common sense were always spot on. I was always presented with my options and a suggestion which really gave me the insight and at the same time the direction I needed to make a decision. Their emails were detailed and covered all perspectives, informative, and intuitive simultaneously. I also liked the fact that I spoke always to the same person hence I never had to explain things twice which allowed me to focus on my job without any delays throughout this process. It always took a single call to get the latest update, fast and very much to the point without wasting time on long conference call and back and forth. I will certainly say 10 out of 10 without any reservations.”
- “The advice I received was well reasoned and directed at achieving the best possible outcome. My lawyer was able to ease my concerns, set out the options, and constructively guide me though what ended up being a lengthy process. I felt I could trust my lawyer, and felt confident about the case. In the end the result was a good one.”
- “For some time l have been facing financial demands which I considered both excessive and unjustified. l was advised to entrust my case to HJA and ,in particular, to Ms. Brenel Menezes whose help and advice has been quite invaluable to me. She has kept in touch with me on a regular basis and throughout I have received calming and constructive suggestions which I have been very willing to follow. The outcome has proved far better than I dared to hope. I would unhesitatingly recommend HJA and those of their associates with whom I have had dealings.”
