Solicitor at Higgs LLP

Solicitor - Associate
SRA ID: 814787
I applied to Higgs because I wanted to join a firm that struck a good balance between its culture and offering a high level of quality work. I discovered Higgs at a law fair at BPP University in Birmingham and the trainees I spoke with were easily the most approachable and down to Earth, and as I am from Wolverhampton, I liked the idea of joining one of the largest and more traditional (although still progressive) firms in the West Midlands. I attended an open day/evening which was really impressive and I managed to get a good feel for the personality of the firm. It was important to me that I trained at a firm that would not only provide me the best experience I needed to start my career as a solicitor, but also in one that I would feel comfortable doing so.

Share buyback advice and transacting
I have worked with Higgs on a number of transactions over the past 15 years. They are always there to give great advice and be pragmatic and commercial. They are careful with the detail but good at the bigger picture. We have continued to use them as they always do a good job and have strength in depth to be able to advise on all parts of the transaction.
