Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear your matter was handled quickly and professionally, including the review of detailed documents, and we really appreciate your recommendation.
Carole guided us, as a Board, and as individuals, through a tricky settlement, without having to end up in Court. Her advice was prompt and explained, enabling us to balance options and come to a satisfactory resolution.

I have been kept fully informed with all steps to resolve my dispute. Different options have been laid out for me to consider at all stages. Communication has been excellent and my opinions and wishes have been taken into account when decisions have been required. Lauren has been excellent and I have felt confident in the advice given at all times during the process.

(Translated by Google) Hello! So far we are very satisfied with the work done by attorney Steve and Laura Hopkins, who is also in the process. We are taking safe and consultative steps, even though it is a long-term procedure - but we are always consulted and they are doing an enormous job for our family. We thank them and recommend them with confidence. (Original) Bună ziua!pînă la moment suntem foarte mulțumiți de munca depusă de avocatul Steve şi Laura Hopkins care este şi in procedură,mergem cu paşi siguri şi consultativi chear dei o procedură pe lungă durată-dar mereu suntem consultați şi ei depunînd o muncă enormă pentru familia noastră .Mulțumim şi recomand cu încredere.
Thank you, Vasile. We're delighted we have been able to help.
Very poor service over a number of years. My fiancé has been working with them for 8 years. Case went to the ombudsman. They paid him compensation. Awful service and attitude.

This was our first MBO, and it was a steep learning curve. Higgs helped guide us through the legal side of the process and were available when we needed clarity or reassurance. They produced strong documentation and helped us protect our position as founders. We found the whole team answered all our questions in a way we could understand, turned documentation around quickly and kept us upto date with where we were in the process.

I worked with Jamie Partington and Richard Freeman at Higgs as the Buyer in an MBO transaction, and I couldn't have asked for better advisers throughout the process. This was a complex transaction involving a US seller, extensive SPA negotiations, transitional licensing arrangements, regulatory considerations and a number of moving parts that evolved right up to completion. Jamie and Richard were consistently responsive, pragmatic and commercially focused, helping us navigate challenges without ever losing sight of the bigger picture. What stood out most was their ability to balance technical legal advice with practical business judgement. They took the time to understand the commercial objectives behind the deal and were always willing to discuss options, pressure-test positions and find workable solutions. Their guidance was instrumental in helping us secure a fair outcome while keeping momentum in the transaction. The quality of their work was excellent throughout, from drafting and negotiation through to completion. Equally importantly, they were approachable, calm under pressure and a pleasure to work with. I would have no hesitation in recommending Jamie, Richard and the wider Higgs team to anyone undertaking an acquisition, investment or corporate transaction.
Thank you for your feedback, Mark. We’re delighted to hear that Jamie, Richard, and the wider team provided such responsive, pragmatic, and commercially focused support throughout your MBO transaction.

I met Simrit whilst recovering from a Road traffic accident which wasn’t my fault . From the outset Simrit showed empathy concern & kindness she explained what the process was timescales and expectations. She had remained in constant communication over the last two years given myself and my wife tremendous support & guidance as we navigated both this civil & criminal case. I would highly recommend Simrit and Higgs solicitors whilst the process takes time and is complex you are in safe hands with Simrit . Simrit you have been a joy to work with and I thank you for all the support late night calls & emails you are simply amazing thank you

Thank you, David, for your feedback. We are pleased to hear you received honest, straightforward advice and efficient support throughout your matter. Your comments are greatly appreciated.
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.
