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.

Great experience
100% professional with loads of experience in family law. Sebastian was direct and detailed and helped guide and navigate me during a difficult time through an exhaustive and confusing process. He was able to keep momentum and ultimately avoid court. Thanks Sebastian!

Excellent service
I had used Heringtons before for conveyancing matters, and received a brilliant service each time! So my husband and I visited them this time to draw up our wills and were not disappointed- great service yet again!

Great team at Heringtons in Battle. We have employed them for Will & POA services as well as conveyancing and been very happy with the service. Always responsive and easy to reach when needed. Understanding and professional approach. Thanks
Thank you Mark for your review. Much appreciated. We're glad to hear you were treated well.

Charlotte Callaway has been my solicitor since shortly after my husband's death in May, 2024. She has guided me through all alternative routes that may be chosen during a bumpy legal and emotional time without ever actually advising or indicating to me a route to choose. Armed with the information appropriate to each scenario, I have made my choices and Charlotte has dealt accordingly for the best outcomes. Bearing the above in mind, I have chosen Heringtons to store all important papers when/if my Executors require them. I have also advised my Executors to call on Heringtons, if needed.

We were made to feel very welcome as soon as we walked through the door by the receptionist. Our Solicitor, Amanda was brilliant in helping us with our new Wills and POA's. She is very easy to talk to and explained everything that we weren't sure about or didn't understand. It was a pleasure meeting her. We will definitely use Heringtons again and highly recommend Amanda. Thank you.

I have found Gemma Blizard to be incredibly helpful during a recent purchase. She explained everything in easy to understand terms, kept me fully informed during the whole process, with a successful outcome. I have used her before and will use her again. Efficient, friendly, helpful and went that extra mile to ensure a smooth outcome. Thank you so much.
