Clinical Negligence

Medical Negligence is emotional, Higgs LLP made it easier to endure

I felt utterly overwhelmed by my case, but with Higgs LLP, namely Clare Langford and Mia Clews by my side it made it easier to bear. With their guidance, support and professionalism throughout including their empathetic understanding. They were always available to talk and explain all of the legal technicalities. Thanks to their tireless persistence I, or should I say they have achieved a favourable outcome. I will be forever grateful for their dedication.

Personal Injury

Spinal Injury

I sustained a life changing Spinal injury following a work accident in May 2021. I am lucky to be alive let alone walking. I was referred to Andy once discharged from hospital and was home recovering. From the very start Andy made me feel at ease with his professionalism, caring, understanding attitude towards a very sensitive situation I was now in. Andy talked me through the process that would now follow after taking on my case. From sorting out a case manager for me to get my rehabilitation started, to helping me with benefit advice and any other legal advice that may arise whilst still being in contact with my now former employers. I cannot stress enough the 110% plus help and support i received throughout my journey. It was not an easy case at times for myself or Andy, but Andy never waivered one minute. We were in constant contact when needed and no decision was made without my consent at any point in the process. This was another reason I have been so happy with Andy and all associated with my case at Higgs, every bump in the road, every hurdle that was encountered we spoke through these and went over all of the information available to us with a a fine comb to make the correct decision at that moment in time. Myself and my family would not have ended up with the result I have, been able to start to move on with my life and get back to some sort of normality if it was not for Andy and all involved at Higgs. I owe them more than i will ever be able to express. If there was more than 5 stars then whatever the maximum rating would be is where I would be rating them. I for one moving forward in life if I ever need or I know of anybody who needs help in this field will make sure they are getting in touch with Andy and Higgs.

Outstanding Support

Working with Elizabeth on my medical negligence case has been nothing short of exceptional. From the very beginning, she demonstrated a combination of legal expertise, compassion, and unwavering commitment. She took the time to truly understand my situation, explain every step clearly, and ensure that I always felt supported and informed. Elizabeth’s attention to detail and strategic approach made a meaningful difference in my case. She anticipated challenges, crafted strong arguments, and advocated for me with remarkable professionalism. Her communication was consistent and reassuring, and her ability to translate complex legal issues into clear, actionable guidance was invaluable. Beyond her technical skill, Elizabeth showed genuine empathy. She listened, cared, and made me feel like more than just a case file. Her dedication gave me confidence during an incredibly difficult time, and I’m deeply grateful for the outcome she helped achieve. I cannot recommend Elizabeth highly enough. She is an outstanding advocate and anyone seeking representation in a medical negligence matter would be fortunate to have her by their side.

Jenny Tetlow represented me in a clinical negligence claim on behalf of my late father. Jenny was an absolute pleasure to work with, always there to answer questions, very responsive and always provided regular updates without being asked. A really refreshing experience compared to some other lawyers. I have already recommended her and Higgs and Sons to family and friends and will continue to do so. Well done and thank you for everything you did Jenny.

Sale of property

The sale of my property has been particularly difficult due to the initial buyer’s disproportionate enquiries and then pulling out of the sale without notification. Sam dealt with the various issues raised efficiently and in a straight forward manner. When the property sold for a second time, Sam was again efficient, attentive, gave straight forward advice and dealt with issues quickly. I found Sam to be supportive and helpful.

Over the course of 5 years, we appointed Higgs & Sons to act as a professional deputy. Unfortunately, our experience was consistently marked by poor communication, significant delays, and a lack of professionalism. Despite the firm charging approximately £12,000–£15,000 per year for what were simple administrative duties, timely responses to calls or emails were rare. Although Nicholas Moxon was named as the appointed deputy, we did not receive a single email or telephone call from him during the entire period. All communication was instead routed through Claire Whittall and Katie Chance, both of whom were frequently unresponsive and, at times, discourteous. On one occasion, after receiving no replies, I drove nearly two hours to the firm’s office, only to be handed documents by a receptionist while the relevant staff members declined to meet. The deputyship accounts were also significantly behind schedule—approximately two years overdue. Given the level of fees being charged, it is essential that these accounts are scrutinised by the Senior Courts Costs Office to ensure they are legitimate and proportionate. Following my mother’s passing, we expected a degree of sensitivity and efficiency. Instead, even simple enquiries regarding arrangements for a modest funeral required repeated follow ups. The funeral directors were not paid promptly, and we were again left to chase for updates. Despite the minimal communication during this period—amounting to only a few emails—Higgs & Sons sought to charge £3,389.40 for “extensive involvement.” In correspondence, Katie Chance stated: “Following your mother’s death there was extensive involvement to assist the executors in understanding the current position and to try and progress matters. The work completed from the date of death to date currently stands at £3,389.40… However, given the value of the estate, I am happy to agree to a 10% reduction of these fees as a gesture of goodwill.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, Bob. We're committed to providing high-quality legal advice and an excellent client experience, and we'd welcome the opportunity to discuss your concerns in more detail.
