Hopkins Law and yourself.

Mark Leyshon helped me with an employment termination agreement. He provided a clear outline of the key points to be aware of in going through the termination agreement and gave clear advice. He reduced the pressure I was under considerably, providing confidence in the way he dealt with things. Much appreciated, and I would use him again if the need arose.

Dear Liane, I just wanted to let you know how impressed we have been with Emma Penn throughout our house sale and purchase recently. She was recommended to us by someone who said “she’s the most efficient person I’ve ever come across” and we would agree. To add to this, her communication throughout has been brilliant so we have been kept in the loop all the way through much more so than our previous experiences of house purchasing. She’s a huge asset to the firm. Best wishes R and R
Just a big thank you for the excellent, prompt and efficient service. Helen and Liane you are stars. Thank you.
Mr and Mrs P
Emma and the team were so pleasant, helpful and professional. They expediated the purchase quickly and without fuss. The best conveyancing experience!
