Excellent Service
Higgs exceeded my expectations with their professionalism and high quality service. Ellie Norton was in charge of my divorce/financial case and she was extremely professional with every aspect of the case. Her level of communication was excellent and she was always willing to help and give professional advice whenever needed She worked very the case and on many occasions she gave up her own personal time to make sure everything was done within the deadlines and to prepare a strong case. She was also very empathetic as at times the case was very stressful for me. Ellie advised me of every possible outcome of the case which helped me prepare if things didn't go in my favour. She also tried her best to keep costs as low as possible but not compromising the quality of service. She is an asset to Higgs and I definitely believe had it not been for Ellie's hard work and dedication I would not have achieved the great result I did at the end of the case.

Divorce
My experience with Higgs and sons was overall a very positive one. During a very challenging period of my life, Ellie Norton was amazing.She was extremely attentive, compassionate, and reassured me every step of the way. I honestly would not have wanted to share this journey with any other professional representative.

Family Law - Divorce
The service I received from Higgs LLP during my divorce proceedings was professional from when I filed for divorced to end my 26 year old marriage through to the absolute. The solicitor I first started with when I contacted Higgs LLP left approximately 6-8 weeks into the process. I initially felt very upset and very stressed out when I was told this news. This was short lived as I was introduced to Ellie Norton and following our first consultation I felt at ease and straight away trusted she would provide a very professional service. Ellie was approachable throughout and when difficulties were put in front of me as my ex husband made the process at times very challenging. Ellie was very supportive and had the knowledge to deal with every situation which my ex husband put my way. Ellies calm professional approach on many occasions throughout the process reduced my stress levels and always provided constructive sound advice on ways to move forward to resolve matters.

Termination of relationship
Ellie (Norton) made an awful and stressful time much better for me… she always gave me the reality of my situation.. calmed me down when I got stressed… explained each and every contact with opposing party clearly and gave me time to consider my options. Answered any questions I had with both possible positive and negative outcomes. She made the whole experience far more bearable than I could have imagined. Whilst it’s not an experience I would have chosen, I’m grateful to Ellie for her professionalism and understanding of my required outcome… which she succeeded in securing.
Many thanks

Brilliant advice
I spoke to Ellie to seek advice as to the next steps in my separation. Ellie was kind, pragmatic and honest in her approach and due to this I will be continuing to instruct another department at Higgs to continue my case,
