In 1930 our founder Henry Hyams opened a small office in Leeds to serve the local community. Understanding the difficulties facing ordinary people and businesses he developed a general practice offering legal services with a strong emphasis on justice and fair play. From that small office the business expanded to become a leading legal practice in the city centre, building on an ethos of hard work and client focussed advice. Those core principles upon which Henry built his practice remain the focus of the service we provide today. Fast, efficient, yet caring, we will use all our skills, experience and resources to help you achieve the best possible outcome. From personal injury to property; regulatory prosecution to driving offences; divorce to immigration, we offer the same high quality service to private and commercial clients alike. Read more...

Shaista has assisted me over a number of years and has always been so helpful and explained everything to me and answered any questions I had regarding the matter. She always went above and beyond for me and it felt like what ever I requested wasn't too much trouble for her. She always achieved the desired outcome for me and I would not hesitate to contact her again if ever needed. I appreciate massively what she has done for me over the years and would highly recommend her.

I together with my daughter had to apply for our visa to stay and work in the UK. The application process can be quite daunting and needs a professional to help you achieve your goal without missing anything which can lead to a refusal. So we contacted Henry Hyams as we had worked with them previously and everything went well. Robert Sparks was the lawyer that was on our case and he did a very good job and was very professional and thorough. Some times he had to go out of his working hours just to make sure we were on point and on track to be document and evidence ready for the application. He supported us in a lot of ways and finally we got our visa's. It's a good firm to use if you want a positive outcome with no stress.
A representative from Henry Hyams Limited responded to this review on 03 June, 2025:
Thank you for the review, we are glad that you had a positive experience with Robert and Henry Hyams, and that you felt supported by Robert throughout the whole process.

Based on our experience, Dominic Nurse and Henry Hyams Limited have set themselves apart from other firms. Dominic is approachable, a good listener and very knowledgeable. He immediately understood our position and provided his advice in a timely manner. The advice was clear, sensible and easy to understand and it was also great value for money! We would definitely recommend Dominic and we are certain Henry Hyams are going to be the go to firm for us going forward.

Ms Shahnaz clearly didnât know what she was doing. She did not understand the pernicious nature of domestic abuse, was so nervous in court that she could barely speak, did not explain any of the procedures I was being subject to, and as a result left both me and my daughter open to my ex-husbandâs abuse for years after my marriage ended. Under her âlegal guidanceâ my daughter was removed from my care and left exposed to ex husbandâs behaviour, without any other adult protecting her. My daughter has suffered immense and indescribable harm because she failed to represent my case in court. Fortunately I found a decent solicitor and my daughter is back with me now.

Solicitors looked after the difficult job of probate for my fatherâs estate and handled it efficiently and professionally. Nicola Hartley in the main dealt with things and she made a difficult job easier.
We also used the solicitors to sell my fatherâs flat and again it was dealt with effectively.
I am happy to recommend the company.
