No fuss, gets it done

Richard and Claire were a pleasure to work with, and all other staff members were courteous and made sure messages got through. A very thorough conveyancing service, but also flexible, calm and pragmatic when circumstances changed midway through the process. I would highly recommend Heringtons

Richard Palmer has restored my faith in Heringtons acting in a timely and not unreasonably expensive manner on a number of matters for our business. He has been professional and a pleasure to deal with.This review is based on my experience with him so not prepared to give generic responses on the whole firm below. I would deginitely recommend him but am not prepared to comment on whole firm

Thank you!

Richard dealt with the selling of our commercial property with professionalism. He helped me with every aspect of the journey and was always available when I needed advice. It was an absolute pleasure to work with Richard, and I would not hesitate to recommend his services.

Business Sale

Richard was most efficient from our initial introductory meeting through to completion. He was never shy of telling us the reality and providing a calming influence during, what at times seemed, a fairly brutal process. he always seemed to have a firm hand on the rudder.

Outatanding service - highly recommended We recently used Richard Palmer as our solicitor for the sale of our business and associated property sale , and we couldn’t be more pleased with the service we received. From the outset, Richard demonstrated exceptional professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail. He guided us through what could have been a complex and stressful process with clarity and efficiency, keeping us well-informed at every stage. His communication was excellent — always prompt, clear, and reassuring — which gave us great confidence throughout. Richard’s knowledge of both commercial and property law was evident in every aspect of the transaction. He approached everything with care and precision, ensuring that our best interests were protected at all times. We are extremely grateful for all his hard work and support and wouldn't hesitate recommending him to anyone needing legal assistance with business or property matters. Anne & Russ Deacon

I’ve worked with Richard Palmer on two separate occasions now and I wouldn’t choose anyone else. So officiant, honest & professional. I hear such bad stories with solicitors and Richard has done me proud! No complaints here. Highly recommend 🙌🏻

We’ve worked with Richard Palmer at Heringtons Solicitors over the past few years to create our shareholder agreements, and we couldn’t recommend him more highly. Nothing is ever too much trouble, he consistently goes above and beyond. Richard is incredibly responsive, always quick to return emails and phone calls. His legal knowledge is excellent, and he has a real talent for breaking down complex legal terms into language that’s easy to understand. A true professional!
