- What should I expect if I come to you mid-separation after another firm made no progress?
- Reviewers report the team picks up complex matters quickly, often achieving resolution within months. One client spent a year with another firm before Hickman resolved their property settlement swiftly.
- Can I use Hickman if I'm representing myself in court?
- Yes. Sophie Walker is specifically praised for providing ad hoc advice and document preparation to self-represented litigants before they lodge material in court.
- Do you prioritise court outcomes or settlement?
- The team emphasises negotiation and resolving matters efficiently without court when possible. Reviewers value this cost-conscious approach, though court representation (by Jessica Hewlett and others) is available.
