Professional service

I contacted Harrowells following the sudden death of my husband. From the first phone call the firm were professional yet approachable. They guided me through each step, explained things in a humane way and were highly responsive to any queries I had. I felt that I was getting a personal service throughout the process and that they took the time to understand my story. Richard and his team are well aware of the trauma clients go through, his experience led me through to a successful claim. I will always be grateful to Harrowells, they made a very difficult process a lot easier to go through. Thank you.

Do not use.

I strongly advise against using Harrowells medical negligence team under any circumstances. I unfortunately became trapped in what can only be described as a web of cowardly behaviour. A cowardley person within that team showed a shocking lack of empathy and a blatant willingness to throw me a victim of severe medical negligence, to the wolfs. Their actions were utterly appalling and callous. I am actively working to expose the abhorrent practices of UK medical negligence firms via passing details to a TV documenty. To anyone considering using this firm's medical negligence team, my firm advice is to avoid them at all costs.

Really arrogant and made mistakes

We used harrowells to purchase a flat some time ago but they made a mistake with the lease. We then sold the flat ( the purchaser used them too) and it cost us a fortune to rectify their original mistake. They were not prepared to engage with us,, as the legal time for claiming compensation had expired. In fact they said they would not even consider the complaint. Avoid as they have no scruples

Exceptional Service

Mr. Matt Rowley represented me during a period of exceptionally sensitive and stressful legal proceedings, and I cannot overstate the quality of his service, professionalism, and dedication. From our very first meeting, Matt approached my case with exceptional preparation, leaving no detail unexplored. He meticulously examined every piece of information, identifying the crucial key points that would ultimately prove decisive in the matter.

His ability to analyse complex issues and distil them into clear, actionable strategies was remarkable. Matt anticipated challenges before they arose, and his thorough preparation meant that nothing was left to chance. Every submission, every argument, and every document reflected an in-depth understanding of both the facts and the broader legal context.

Alongside this sharp strategic insight, Matt displayed a rare combination of empathy and professionalism. He explained each stage of the process in plain, understandable terms, enabling me to feel informed and always involved. His calm, reassuring presence helped to manage the inevitable stress of the proceedings, while his unwavering attention to detail gave me full confidence in his representation.

Matt’s work ethic and commitment were evident throughout, from the precision in his case preparation to his skill in pinpointing the issues that truly mattered. In a time of great personal difficulty, his diligence, integrity, and strategic clarity made a profound difference to the outcome and to my peace of mind.

I would recommend Mr. Matt Rowley without hesitation to anyone seeking a solicitor whose preparation is second to none and whose insight into the critical points of a case is both rare and invaluable.

Fiona handled the estate of my Mother after her death. The entire matter was dealt with care and skill. Fiona communicated every step to the family and worked with compassion at all times. I'd like to thank her and the team for their professional approach while dealing with this sad task.

Overall positive

Harrowells York was experienced and helpful resulting in a successful claim. My consultations were very thorough. I felt listened to and Grace guided me through the process in depth. All emails were very detailed and gave me lots of choice but while some emails were replied to promptly - others took weeks for a response. Furthermore, I found it challenging to contact Grace by telephone in general. Although long, overall the process was smooth and went very well. I am appreciative of what Grace has done for me.

Amy and her team were wonderful throughout a very traumatic time. Amy is very experienced and empathetic with childcare matters. I would highly recommend Amy to represent a parent needing support through challenging separations and court proceedings.
I am extremely grateful to Amy for the support she provided.

Professional, engaging, and very supportive

This was the second time I had to call upon Amy Foweather and her team for legal advice, support, and service. I had no hesitation in re-approaching Amy following the professional, friendly, and completely supportive service I received the first time around.
Amy and her team guided me through all the necessary stages and made me feel at ease at every touchpoint. Costs were also managed and optimised right across the timeline of my case, which was really helpful.
I would fully recommend Amy and the Harrowells team for legal services.

I am very grateful to Harrowells, especially so Mr Black, he was professional, honest, knowledgeable and very reliable. He helped me with a home sale, and the results were better than I hoped, because of the effort he put in. I am very happy with the cost, and the service I received from this company. I entirely recommend them, have trust in knowing they will do the best they can for their clients. Many thanks.
