OVER & ABOVE BEING MY SOLICITORS
My whole interaction with Herrington & Carmichael was very professional from the start of my conveyancing journey with both Caroline Hilson & Kimberley McCoy. They literally guided me by the hand to a satisfactory conclusion. I couldn’t have managed the whole process without their guidance and reassurance.

Great solicitor with amazing communication!
We had a great experience with Laura Oakley and Laura Miller. The whole process was generally smooth and we were kept updated consistently throughout. We had a fairly stressful simultaneous exchange and completion however Laura O gave us hourly updates and made it as straightforward as possible. I would definitely recommend.

Child Custody/Recovery
Aadil has been representing my son through a very challenging child custody/recovery case. His help and knowledge has been fantastic. He went above and beyond working on his day off too make sure court papers were delivered on time. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Aadil.

New House Move
On the whole the service provided was fine and the process completed successfully.
We did not feel valued as a customer and experienced a few basic errors of detail in emails sent to us, which I had to advise were incorrect and received apologies for, but our expectation was of greater professionalism and detail focus. We had several people dealing with us (4 in total) rather than one main contact and this may not have helped communications.

I can't thank Aadil and Madelyn enough for what they did for me in such a short space of time. I had previously used Aadil and didn't hesitate to contact him again regarding the issue I had.

Using their services for our first home based on builders recommendation. Guess made a mistake. Feels like they are more of my builders solicitor and not ours.
Initial interaction feels transactional, requested to meet our solicitor which was refused and asked for more money for this.
No sense of empathy or intention of help. Feels like made a mistake, should have chosen local solicitor.

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.
