Thank you to Jon Galloway and HF's Employment Team

I am writing to thank and commend Jon Galloway and your Employment Team. I recently had issues with a former employer which has now been brought to a successful conclusion. I couldn’t have asked for a more attentive and sympathetic approach. I was kept informed at all stages and everything was explained in a simple and empathetic way that as a layperson made the whole procedure easy to understand.

Outstanding Support and Expertise - Highly Recommended

I cannot thank Zhaleh Hawkins enough for her exceptional support in preparing our case for an employment tribunal involving an extremely challenging claimant. From the outset, their professionalism, clarity, and calm approach provided much-needed reassurance in what was a highly stressful situation.

Zhaleh demonstrated a deep understanding of employment law and tribunal procedures, and was always one step ahead in anticipating potential complications. Despite the claimant’s difficult and often unpredictable behaviour, Zhaleh remained composed, strategic, and focused—ensuring that our position was both strong and thoroughly evidenced.

What stood out most was her attention to detail, responsiveness, and the ability to translate complex legal matters into practical, understandable advice. She went above and beyond, often working outside standard hours to meet tight deadlines, and never lost sight of the human aspect of the case.

Thanks to Zhaleh and her teams hard work and dedication, we felt fully prepared and confident going into the tribunal process. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone needing expert legal support in employment matters—especially when the stakes are high and the case is anything but straightforward.

FRAUDULENT COMPANY

PLEASE NOTE - FAKE 5 STAR reviews - FRAUDULENT SOLICITORS
The most shocking Solicitors I have ever come across in 30 years. DIABOLICAL, DISGUSTING & AWFUL. FRAUDULENT ACTIVITIES- under investigation
If your insurance company refers you to this shambles of a solicitors, 1st thing you do is reject these Solicitors (this is a serious warning). Whether you’re 6 months down the line or 1 year or maybe 2, change Solicitors. Your new solicitors will get you up to speed within a few weeks or months compared to what they say they’ve done in 2 years. If you’re reading this & don’t listen you will read this again in 6 months or whenever and wish you did. SERIOUS WARNING
Horwich Farrelly Solicitors are also being investigated for serious FRAUD. I will update you all this week!

Very poor communication and overall service (still not sorted!)

They have been looking after a no fault claim for Axa since 2022, numerous staff changes through the process, they don't seem to know where to send the claim to without checking the file over and over again with different handlers. One of the handlers left and it took 3 months to assign to someone else and this was only done when I called for updates. They do not let you know of progress (and im not exactly confident the handlers have a clue on what to do). Calling to discuss things is frustrating and they never return calls.

Terrible communication, poor attitude, not interested in clients.

After a car accident my Insurers, AXA, passed the case to this firm. No communication for 6 months, then they want information from me within 4 days, over Christmas or they'll close the case. Very little communication, but when they did it was short, abrupt, unhelpful and pretty much rude. I asked a staff member for their manager's contact details, and was replied to with the manger copied in to the email. No follow up from either. Nothing. They're just not interested in the clients that bring the money in for them.
The case outcome was in my favour, but would have been anyway, there was no help from this company, and they did nothing to ensure any information was correct.
I have since moved my insurance away from AXA, so that I don't run the risk of dealing with this awful firm again.

Brilliant service (once again).

From start to finish, Zac Clough dealt with our issue with consummate professionalism, as well as his usual easy manner and good humour. Fantastic outcome. Zac went so far above and beyond the call of duty, including personally going to personally serve at 9 pm on a Friday evening, after receiving instructions at 5.30 pm on the same day. After 30 plus years of being a solicitor, you have an idea of what outstanding service is, and this is what I always get from Zac, John Lord, and his team.
