Personal Injury

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.

Thank you so much for this wonderful and detailed review, Colin! Hit-and-run accidents are incredibly stressful, and dealing with the MIB can often be a slow and difficult process. We are so proud of Simon and Alison for their persistence, communication, and for making sure you felt supported every step of the way. Knowing that they kept you reassured and well-informed means the world to us. Thank you for your high recommendation and for trusting Higgs during such a challenging time. We wish you all the very best!

Legal Civil Claim

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

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.

Spoke to Jenny Petlow in regards to my sons medical condition he is currently in and if there firm could help. They could not take rhe case on due to my sons current circumstances, however Jenny has advised me the best possible way to help my son in order to get his medical condition resolved. Even thou my case could not be taken on she had taken the time out and was very understanding. I will definitely be using this firm for future in cases that they may be able to help me with even thou they couldn't take on my case on but the service I had for Jenny was brilliant, it tells me if I did have a case she would do her ultimate best! Thank you Jenny, and just to let you know my son has had his surgery now. Many thanks Jahangir

My experience with my allocated Solicitor was Ms. Sally Green who represented me regarding a vehicle accident and personal injury claim, the claim began in 2019 and Sally pursued my claim with the other parties' insurer for this long-extended period reaching a satisfactory conclusion in my favour. Sally's, hard work, diligence, ethics, and outstanding, professional advice at each stage of the journey have been excellent, well-done Sally, a big thank you. With kind regards Colin R Lees. FSCTE.

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.

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.
