Highly professional and dedicated

I would highly recommend Chris Brown and his team to manage any divorce negotiations. Great communication, approachable and gave sound advice. He brought a calmness to the situation, a trust worthy approach and was accessible for any clarification. Whilst my situation took 4 years, I was confident in the service provided and would not hesitate to use Hegarty again for any guidance further down the line.

Very grateful

I would like to thank you for all your help with the divorce. It seems strange seeing it in writing but I am relieved I can finally move on. You have made what appeared to be impossible a relatively stress free process for which I am very grateful.

My husband is housebound. It was time to update our wills and make Lasting Power of Attorneys. I arranged a home visit. We found Rachael Griffiths to be very well informed, extremely polite, punctual and professional. In addition we enjoyed her visits. In all Rachael made four visits. We have complete confidence in the work completed by Rachael and therefore have total confidence in Hegarty's legal team.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are pleased to hear that Rachael provided you with such a positive and professional service during her visits. Ensuring that our clients feel informed, respected, and comfortable is a priority for us, so it is wonderful to know that these values were reflected in Rachael's work. We understand the importance of updating Wills and arranging Lasting Power of Attorneys, and your feedback about Rachael's punctuality, politeness, and professionalism is greatly appreciated. Thank you again for choosing Hegarty as your legal team, and we hope to be able to assist you in the future should the need arise.

Excellent solicitors, handled my late mother's name change and subsequently my name change. Very smooth process, professional and courteous. My only suggestion is, if practical, please get a senior partner to co-sign all name change deeds, as banks such-as Metro Bank do not allow name changes without a senior partner's signature.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are pleased to hear that you found our services to be excellent and that we were able to handle your late mother's name change and your subsequent name change in a professional and courteous manner. We take pride in making the process as smooth as possible for our clients. Thank you also for your suggestion, this has been passed on to the team.

Friendly, very efficient and helpful

Andrew has been the best solicitor I have ever dealt with and his no-nonsense, brutally honest, direct attitude is so refreshing. Without Andrew's guidance and support dealing with my late parents foibles and estate, I would of been tearing my hair out. The other outstanding thing about Andrew is that he does this old fashioned thing, called phoning people and talking to them. I cant recommend Andrew highly enough.

Disappointed

After getting initial advice from Abdul Basit on 02.09.2026 which was good, therefore I previously gave 5 star review, I was told a file would be opened for our case on 09.09.2026 after several discussions. I was asked to send documents to in order to put into case file once they were instructed to proceed with the case and i was even given a Land Surveyor that is used and recommended by the company of whom I spoke to. After sending many emails along with documentation, I then receive an email over 2 weeks later stating that the solicitors now have a conflict of interest. Should this not have been done at the outset before I sent evidence of my case which is now possibly going to be used against us for the conflicted party. Not acceptable at all

A representative from Hegarty LLP responded to this review

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We’re pleased that you found the initial advice you received helpful, but we’re sorry to hear about your subsequent experience and understand your concern about the timing of being informed that we were unable to act. We take confidentiality and conflict checks very seriously and notify clients as soon as we identify a potential conflict of interest. Information provided to us is treated confidentially and in accordance with our professional obligations, including in circumstances where we are subsequently unable to act. We confirm that, in accordance with your request, all documents provided by you will be deleted. We appreciate how frustrating this situation must have been and would welcome the opportunity to look into what happened and address your concerns directly. Please contact us by calling 01733 346 333 if you wish to discuss this further.

Buying first house

Yvonne Dudhill was incredibly pro active and prompt with her responses, she was very friendly & always took the time to explain the legalities in an easy to understand way. I would 100 per cent use this solicitor firm and would highly recommend Yvonne if you are buying a house. Especially if your a first time buyer.

Help With HMO Repossession

I had a landlord and tenant issue and wanted to seek help. Kally at Heagarty was recommended and I was so glad to have worked with him. He guided me throughout the process and to my surprise it turned out to be as he envisaged right at the beginning. Also it took less time than anticipated which was a plus. Really happy to have worked with Kally
