We’re always committed to getting the optimum outcome for you.

I have had nothing but professional and courteous service from all at Hudgells. Mine was a claim against the Post Office which was obviously a difficult and fraught road to travel, but they have made it a painless and informative journey from the very beginning. I can’t thank them enough for taking the time to help us through this process.

Recently used the travel team based in Manchester (specifically Anne Thomson) to pursue a claim for my daughter against Ryanair. Very professional support and good communication throughout. The whole thing was managed largely over email which suited me fine in terms of being able to respond when it suited me. Apart from providing all the relevant information upfront they handled the whole thing from start to finish and it was recently settled in court with my daughter receiving £2,300. Have to say they made the whole thing very easy and with pretty minimal work on my part. Would definitely recommend to others.
