Never use

Paid my bill that was agreed at the begining of proceedings. Then 3 months after they sent me another bill saying they did extra work for me that wasnt paid... I never asked them to do extra work for me. I agreed to the amount the bill was charged for. Had the cheek to ask me to go to a small claims court to recieve their money.

Dispute resolution

We are an international company that needed help with dispute resolution. As the CFO, located in the USA, I needed expert advice on UK law and how to manage the process. Emily was able to navigate me through the complex procedures and offer effective and strong advice on the details of our case. Emily played a critical role in getting us a great resolution that favored our company.

Agreed a price at the start and paid it. 3months later they sent me another bill saying they did extra work for me that was not mentioned at the beging of the proceedings. Had the cheek to ask me to go to a small claims court to get their money back for something they never mentioned to me at the begining.

We agreed £5,250 + VAT to conduct a piece of work. However, a year later once the document was finalised they then tried stating a invoice of £8,750 + VAT was due due to additional work that went into it. They just referred to there terms of business however, I think this is totally unacceptable as no point throughout the project was I informed of the additional costs. I am also frustrated as I have had to chase this project from start to finish. With long periods off up to 10 weeks to get a simple response to a email or update.

Higgs and Sons advised me through two residential property transactions; one which fell through, and another which succeeded after a drawn-out process. First Neil Stockall and then Jonathan Taylor were responsive, diligent, thorough and precise. They are a reassuring presence during an unavoidably nerve-wracking experience and I recommend the firm highly.

Strong team, good advice and support

Jamie and Richard were very supportive and detailed in the sale of our company. They went above and beyond helping advise us around the legal elements and where we needed to work with other professionals in our network. We had some unexpected elements in the deal, which were dealt with professionally.

Compensation following an accident at work.

Throughout the experience, I found that Claire was friendly and professional at all times. She kept us up to date and well informed. She was on hand to answer any questions we had; with replies that were always honest and professional. She guided us well throughout the whole process, providing excellent support and advice. Alongside this, she also seeked professional help to aid my recovery, whilst also considering what my future may look like. I felt my best interests were always at the forefront of everything Claire did for my case.

Personal Injury

Higgs are a fantastic law firm, highly recommend.

Excellent service!! I would definitely recommended Higgs, who dealt with my personal injury claim after my road traffic accident (hit & run, unknown driver) Simon Stanfield (my solicitor) and his legal assistant Alison Rowlands are both super friendly, professional, very helpful, and both communicated fantastically with me during my claim. I was always kept in the loop of where my case was at, as the Motor Insurance bureau (MIB) are not the most responsive, but Simon & Alison constantly updated me of where my claim was at, or what step I needed to take next. If I need any future claims or advice I would 100% definitely return to this firm for help. Thank you so much Simon, Alison and Higgs.

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.

I asked for their help submitting papers to Land Registry and was required to pay £2400 up front. They then said they didn’t think I would be successful and refused to submit the papers or give me my money back.
