Testimonials
"I recently had an upsetting equestrian dispute which I was extremely worried about. Hannah was sympathetic, a fantastic listener and had an incredibly good understanding of the equestrian world coupled with an expert knowledge of equestrian law. I followed Hannah’s advice and the case was settled relatively quickly and painlessly with the outcome we had hoped for. I would recommend Hannah to anyone with any equestrian legal issue, in my opinion it would be very hard to find a better solicitor in this field."
