On our bank's recommendation, we worked with Joel & Elliot on our recent transaction. It all went very smoothly and good advice given on how to deal with a specific issue that resolved risk to us. Even whilst on holiday Joel was fully responsive alongside Elliot.

We had a fantastic experience working with Richard Griffiths and Damian Beard during our recent M&A deal. They were not only incredibly knowledgeable but also down-to-earth and easy to work with. Damian made a real difference—Damian ensured that the deal that took place was as efficient as possible. Higgs LLP kept us informed, explained everything clearly, and made the whole process feel much less daunting. Thanks to their support, the deal went through smoothly and we felt confident every step of the way. Highly recommend them if you're navigating a merger or acquisition.

Simply brilliant, would (and will!) be using again.

Dealt with Higgs LLP for the acquisition of a business within the finance broking space. Was introduced to Higgs through our accountancy business and could not be happier with the service. Timely, efficient and more than thorough. My thanks go to Richard Griffiths and in particular Matthew Allen who was a pleasure to deal with.

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.

I cannot thank Simon Stanfield enough for the support, guidance, and professionalism he showed throughout my case. From our very first conversation, he made me feel reassured and confident that I was in capable hands. What stood out most was not only his legal expertise but also his genuine care and understanding during a difficult and stressful time. Simon was always approachable, patient, and willing to take the time to explain everything clearly. He kept me informed throughout the process, responded promptly to any concerns, and made what was an overwhelming experience easier to manage. His dedication, attention to detail, and commitment to achieving the best possible outcome never went unnoticed. I am truly grateful for all of his hard work and support. I would wholeheartedly recommend Simon to anyone looking for a solicitor who is not only highly skilled and professional but also compassionate and genuinely invested in helping his clients.

Founders first MBO.

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.

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. Please contact our client service team at reviews@higgsllp.co.uk at your convenience.
