I engaged the services of Heathfield Grosvener (HG) to settle a commercial dispute between myself and a so called 'white hat' SEO provider. Through documentation presented to the respondants by HG whom referenced a past ruling which established legal precedence I was able to achieve a favourable outcome. HG were professional and diligent in their research, prompt and timely in their responses and very understanding of the distress associated with seeking some justice in the prevailing circumstances.

Very happy with the work they did for me. Professional at all times and cost effective as advertised with no reduction in quality. Most importantly I felt looked after, bill itemisation was great, they were a pleasure to deal with from start to finish and made the whole process easy for me. Also they achieved a good result for me in difficult circumstances.

I’ve had an excellent experience with Heathfield Grosvenor Lawyers. Their services and pricing structure was laid out clearly from the beginning, and the itemised breakdown of charges received was fair and detailed. Chris Chang is always responsive to requests, often working out-of-hours, with prompt and professional communication beyond reproach. I highly recommend Chris and HG Lawyers.
