Client Comments
- “I much appreciated the professional assistance that was provided by Hodge Jones and Allen Solicitors in my housing case namely my local authority removing their duty to provide permanent housing following a rejection of a housing offer which I deemed detrimental to numerous medical conditions. Amirah who was my solicitor evidenced empathy and communicated at every opportunity to ensured I understood the processes and invited me to comment on anything written or left out. The case was won by my barrister. I recommend these solicitors going as far as giving them 10 out of 10.”
