The Devil's in the Detail

In November we achieved an excellent resolution at mediation in a claim relating to unpaid introduction fees, for which the assignor company had been seeking payment for 4 years prior to assignment to H&J. H&J achieved a great result, resulting in significant sums being paid to the wronged party - and a real feeling of justice having been served.

These cases achieved a total return to the insolvent estates of over £1.5 million - all of which was received in cleared funds within 30 days. We wish to share these examples as they are very different but also very typical of the cases we work on.
