Great Service!

Contacted to create new Wills and Deed transfer. Martin Banwell was extremely professional, knowledgeable and a pleasure to deal with. We were never rushed and everything was explained to us in layman's terms. Very happy with the service we received. Little admin hiccup but resolved promptly.

I required LPAs for myself and my wife; Wills; a Family Trust, registered with both HMRC and Land Registry. Hegarty Solicitors managed all three, with excellent communication and clarity throughout. They also keep the original document's, plus copies for myself. An excellent service at a very reasonable cost.

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
