I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for Hills Solicitors professionalism and assistance during the sale of our property. Your team's expertise and dedication truly made the process seamless. We couldn't have asked for better individuals to handle such an important transaction.

Thank you once again for all your hard work.

Originally I was given misinformation from one of their solicitors who later left. I also signed paperwork that if explained properly I would never have agreed to. I then dealt with a lovely gentleman whom I had no issue with. Until at the end I did not like the condescending tone in the last couple of emails from a senior solicitor. All in all I was disappointed in parts of the service. And I will not be using this firm in the future.

My wife and I have had a long association with Hills Solicitors since moving to East Maitland in 1999. Throughout the years we have had numerous dealings with the firm both personal and business. We have dealt primarily with David Allen with whom we have great respect. Recently we were delighted to meet his son Daniel who in our view is a 'chip off the old block'. Over the last four months Daniel has overseen the sale and purchase of our properties and we have found his advice, thoroughness and attention to detail exemplary. Daniel certainly is an asset to the firm! R & J Lines
