18/07/22 - Reviewed by If I could give them no stars I would
If I could give no stars I would have, I would strongly recommend AGAINST using this firm for so many reasons but mainly due to the lack of care and professionalism. There were several occasions where I had to chase a response after several weeks of waiting (these were often lengthy periods of 4-5 weeks) and this happened a number of times. The response I often got was around how my solicitor didn't have time to review my response or they were really busy despite me being a paying client also. There was a number of incidents that alerted me I was not being afforded the same duty of care as other clients on their books for reasons that was made clear at the early stages of my case where the tonality and reference to Beyonce in an email which actually had no relevance to my previous email which was a direct question to my solicitor. When I complained about this once I was fed up with the whole experience I was told that because my direct response to the email didn't appear to show that I was upset my feelings were as good as invalid. A piece of advice when people experience mirco aggression we go to our safe space which is our friends & family. So while you saw my professional response to a mirco aggression (we have often been taught to deal with these incidents in this way to avoid gaslighting) I have attached the conversation that occurred within my safe space. Just because I chose to remain professional doesn't mean my experience should be trivialised. If you are a person of color don't put yourself through it and don't be fooled by the presentism on their website....the gas lighting in the response to my complaint just summed what this firm really stand for and its NOT for their clients ESPECIALLY those of colour.

Extremely unprofessional, they outline a process to collect your data and information then they give you a defined process that requires a large upfront payment of money. An incredible way for law firm TO handle itself. No integrity or transparency! A company that only replies to good reviews, tells you all you need about their customer service and integrity.

Avoid HJA Like the plague and they are totally and utterly Shambolic! They charged me for advise but they completely got the wrong end of the stick and got a lot wrong. With help from a friend replied but they made excuses on all there replies, stalling me.
Then HJA went on about money and wanted me to put 1k on account. This were just for more advice not to do any work. I were never correctly advised, so why would I put money on account for. When I ask to complain, I were promised calls back but they lie to you an never call you back. They are stupid and thick at HJA. You will be fobbed off and messed around big time.They then told me they could not help but not why they would not help
Avoid these Shambolic nasty solicitors!

Not very good, took a week to tell me they were not going to take my case against well known company as company based in another area of jurisdiction, telling me to contact law society to find another solicitor. Why didnt they just say sorry we not interested, if they were serious about my case, they would of instructed another solicitor to work on the case on my behalf.
Total time wasters, dont bother!

Absolute rubbish firm. They are in Central London so that gives them an air of respectability. Be cautious. Have a case being investigated too by the Legal Ombudsman. Will report findings in full when investigation is over.

Samantha Hooke is an excellent Family law solicitor who always worked on my divorce case with professionalism and was always up to date with the law. She was also very sensitive to the emotional difficulties of a divorce case and was always polite.
