Hugh J Ward Solicitors and CMOS have been leading contributors to the Credit Industry in Ireland for many years and always conduct business with great integrity and professionalism. They were worthy winners of the 2024 Legal Credit Team of the Year Award. It is important to engage the services of firms who specialise in Credit Management and Debt Collection when you are going down that road.

Declan Flood CMIIP, AICDPChief Executive - Irish Credit Management Training

While we have had a relationship with Hugh J Ward & Co Solicitors for several years during 2023 we increased our engagement with Hugh J Ward & Co Solicitors from a legal perspective partly from the recommendation from the legal team at Hugh J Ward & Co Solicitors and our own needs to recover outstanding debt. Since then, we have seen a month-on-month improvement in terms of recoverable debt, and an enhancement in service to our customers supplied by the team at Hugh J Ward & Co Solicitors. From the advice to the legal work undertaken to the partnership Hugh J Ward & Co Solicitors have made doing business with them quite easy.

We engaged Hugh J Ward & Co Solicitors (“HJW”) for the purchase of our first home. Throughout the entire process HJW’s service provided was more than satisfactory. The conveyancing team was exceptionally helpful, answering every query and guiding us in every step of the way. They liaised efficiently with the bank, ensuring a fast and seamless transition from sale agreement to receiving the keys, thanks to their dedication. Their expertise in the various scenarios involved in buying and selling property gave us the confidence we needed to proceed. Most importantly, HJW’s approach and tone in all communications reflected their professionalism and extensive experience in the market
