Fabulous support

Lola’s advice, support and trust has been superb throughout the process. She always responded promptly to emails and was available for calls to talk things through. Her advice was excellent and she always considered the best outcome for my personal situation. I would highly recommend her as she manages to get exactly the right balance between empathy and professionalism. In summary, she always puts the client first and when you’re going through a difficult time that is invaluable.

Thank you.

Lola and Natalie worked tirelessly on my case. When Natalie went on leave, Lola took over the proceedings seamlessly. She was always available to offer support, whether verbally or digitally, and was consistently well-informed, conscientious, and up to date. I would not hesitate to work with her again in the future

Family Issue

I have used Heringtons for a number of personal matters over the years and my experience has always been extremely positive.

For my latest family issue Natalie provided exceptional service, with accurate and timely communication and approached the situation with an empathetic and sympathetic approach which was very welcome in the circumstances.

I would recommend both Natalie and Heringtons.

Flat Possession

Beth was extremely hard working and professional, providing relevant information and advice throughout the process. Beth kept me informed of progress throughout and the fees that would be involved. I would not have gained possession of my flat back without her expert help and support.

Would highly recommend

Nikki Coward's excellent understanding of residential leasehold property law and perseverance against unaccountable freeholders (and a very unhelpful opposing solicitor) saw a successful outcome to my claim. Throughout the case (2022-2025) Nikki has been accessible, friendly and supportive. I would highly recommend Nikki, her colleagues and Heringtons Solicitors.

Highly recommend!

I had the pleasure of seeking advice regarding a family matter, from the lovely Tia Harrison!
Ms Harrison is the picture of professionalism. I felt all my concerns were listened to during the meeting and came away with all the questions I needed clarity too.
Highly recommend Ms Harrison and her firm regarding any Family Matter.
Thank you!

I cannot thank Tia Harrison enough for the unwavering support and outstanding professionalism they’ve shown throughout my legal journey over the past three years. From the very beginning, they have acted in my best interests with integrity, diligence, and empathy — consistently offering clear, expert advice that has guided me through every stage of my court case.
Their commitment to my case and genuine care for the outcome were evident in every conversation and strategic decision. Thanks to their skill, perseverance, and thorough understanding of the law, I achieved a successful result — something that felt out of reach before their involvement.
Beyond legal expertise, it was the reassurance and steady guidance that made all the difference. Having someone so competent and compassionate by my side gave me the confidence to keep going, even when things were tough.
If you're seeking a solicitor who brings both legal acumen and genuine client care, I couldn't recommend Tia Harrison more highly. A true professional in every sense.

My/our initial meeting was with Nikki Coward to explain our request for legal assistance. Nikki was a credit to the Company, she listened to us before giving her professional opinion. When she was unsure, Nikki admitted so, saying she would need to check first, before getting back to us. So 5⭐️ for a very proactive initial meeting, and looking forward to giving another review, upon a positive completion of our request.

Beth was highly recommended to me and I’m glad we instructed her for the case. She was extremely hard working and professional, she made the whole process much easier to digest. Beth was considerate of costs and she turned a bad situation into a better one and I’m sure without her things would’ve been a lot more complicated. I would certainly recommend Beth for her services and for being hard working, professional and for her expert help and support.

About this branch

Description

We’ve been serving the people of East Sussex for around 250 years and can trace our history back to the firms of Raper & Fovargue in Battle and Dawes Son & Prentice in Rye in the mid 18th Century. There has been a lot of change and growth since then but we are still firmly rooted in the local community, combining legal excellence with a highly personalised service – for local people and businesses. Although constantly improving our use of technology to provide the most effective legal service, we still take the time and care to build one-to-one relationships with clients - a traditional way of working that’s fast disappearing in many law firms. As a client, you will usually work with the same lawyer and legal secretary throughout each engagement. There are some exceptions, such as in matters where you may need more than one specialist but, in most cases, you will have the dedicated support of the same well-qualified and experienced lawyer. We are accredited with the Law Society Conveyancing Quality Scheme (CQS) so you know that when you instruct us on a residential conveyancing matter, you are in safe hands. Whatever your legal need, whether personal or business, we look forward to helping you.
