Murray Hughman

Avoid this firm at all costs. It’s a shocking example of legal negligence and disrespect.

No strategy, no defense, no urgency. I was told about my trial on the same day, almost breaching bail. I had to research and build my own defense, while they stood back and offered no plan, no advice, and no interest. Any input I gave was treated with hostility — as though they’d rather see me convicted than helped.

They ignored emails and calls, gave no clarification on legal options, never invited to office and they delay chasing critical evidence, letting the CPS delay and dodge disclosure with zero pushback. They acted more like CPS assistants than defense solicitors.

To make things worse, my solicitor disappeared on holiday with no notice.
When I eventually won based on my own belief there was no congratulations, no summary, no follow-up — just silence.

This firm expects you to approach them with a beggar’s attitude, grateful just to be acknowledged. They want the title of solicitor without doing the work or showing the integrity it requires.

Grant and Amy are amazing, am very grateful to them for all their hard work, transparency, 2 of the most sincere people you can ever meet when you need it they are there and guide you well. I feel very safe in their hands and trusted and they know how to guide you through the process and do things well. Amazing law firm

I was recommended to Murray Hugman by a family member after not having luck with a different firm. They took my case on without hesitation, provided expert advice, got me the best representation in court and a NOT GUILTY verdict.

Emma was professional in her approach, available when needed and very responsive.
Her meticulous attention to detail, and knowledge of law made me feel reassured in her to deal with my case.

The price I paid was lower of what other firms were charging, and I was not seen as just another case . I was treated as a human being and almost as a VIP. I am sure all clients are treated in such way , which is incredible considering their workload .

She also offered moral support and has a high level of interpersonal skills.

I cannot thank Emma enough for what she has done for me, thanking Murray Hughman Solicitors, the best firm in London .
