About this score
This rating is based on verified client feedback and compares how this firm’s value for money is perceived against the national average. In legal services, value for money is not about being the cheapest option, but about whether clients feel the service, expertise, and outcome justified the cost. This comparison helps place client experiences in context when choosing a law firm.

About this score
This rating is based on client feedback and compares how satisfied people were with the result of their legal matter against the national average for similar legal services. While every case is different and outcomes can depend on the law, the facts, and decisions made by courts or tribunals, this comparison is designed to be like for like.
When a firm has a large number of reviews, individual case differences tend to balance out over time. This makes the national average a useful benchmark for understanding how often clients feel the result achieved was fair and appropriate for their situation. Even small differences from the average can therefore reflect a meaningful difference in the overall standard of legal service provided.

Excellent level of communication and very prompt
Kept us updated every step of the conveyancing process, providing responses to queries typically on the same day and even within an hour. Very good communication on completion day. Fees reasonable.
Neil Baker
Really knowledgeable and calm - professional and warm.
Harrington Carmichael were offered to me as a recommended solicitor, I thought this might mean that it was because the developer I was buying from would get some sort of financial kickback in fact, this was not the case and the recommendation came from the quality of their service and the reasonable price. Throughout the whole process everybody I dealt with was professional calm and knowledgeable putting me at complete ease. For this review, I wanted specifically to call out for praise MJ, Lauren Adams and Jessica Brooks for additional praise as they were truly superb.

As first time buyers we were recommended Herrington Carmichael by our developers. Best decision we made, they were fantastic and always explained everything to us in detail. We dealt with Lauren N, Lauren M and Nicole A who couldn’t have been more helpful. Would recommend.

I have recently completed on my first property and used Ellena as my conveyancer. She was absolutely amazing and made the whole process as easy as it could be for me. Her thoroughness and attention to detail gave me complete piece of mind and she was always on the ball with updates. As well as being super approachable and patient with all of my questions. Could not recommend anyone more.

We recently used Herrington Carmichael for our house sale and purchase, we primarily dealt with Roisin and Ellan who impressed us with their efficiency and ability to put us at ease despite a few hiccups along the way which were out of their control. We would not hesitate to use this company again!

I used Herrington and Carmichael for the sale of my property. Toby initially looked after me and was helpful and delightful. Caroline oversaw my sale with great professionalism; all emails and phone calls were dealt with in a timely fashion. I thought that the fees were reasonable too. I would highly recommend Caroline and would certainly use her services again.

Everyone I spoke to at Herrington Carmichael was friendly, approachable, professional and efficient. This was my first home so all the paperwork and processes were new to me but they were great in explaining things in a simplistic way and answered all of my (probably silly!) questions. Thank you for making it a smooth process :)

I would like to sincerely thank Aaron and the entire team for their excellent professional service. Aaron is truly an asset to the company. Whenever I sent him an email, he responded within a few minutes and always kept me updated throughout the process. I never felt ignored or left wondering about the progress of my case. I would also like to appreciate Mary Jayne, Emily, Laura Oakley, Jessica and the rest of the team. Everyone was prompt, helpful, professional, and courteous in their communication. Thank you all for making the whole experience smooth and stress-free. I highly appreciate your dedication, professionalism, and excellent customer service. Keep up the great work!

Over the past few months Nicole Miller, a Legal Director in Herrington Carmichael’s Private Wealth and Inheritance Department, has provided outstanding service in creating a trust for our family. From the outset, Nicole was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly reassuring, guiding us through what could have been a complex process with clarity and patience. She took the time to understand our circumstances fully and explained everything in straightforward terms, ensuring we felt confident at every stage. Nicole’s expertise, attention to detail, and responsive communication gave us complete peace of mind. She handled our matter with both precision and genuine care, making us feel that our family’s interests were truly valued. We are extremely grateful for her support and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking expert and compassionate private wealth advice.
