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!

Great help, brilliant support, but costly

I found Nikki Coward at Herington’s to be extremely helpful, supportive, friendly, and clear with her advice on a complicated matter. She was brilliant and I would recommend. My only negative is that bills came in much higher than advised. But in terms of attention to detail and care taken on my case, faultless.

Divorce

Heringtons provided me with impeccable legal advice and dealt with my divorce with the upmost diligence and compassion. Natalie and Lola where empathetic throughout the prolonged proceedings, which concluded at an FDR hearing with a positive outcome, so thanks to all the team and Cerys Sayer who represented me at the FDR. The whole team prepared all documentation to the highest standards ensuring no stone was unturned. Highly recommended.

Very competent and good value divorce lawyers

I tried to represent myself when I was going through a divorce but it was quite complicated and I needed a lawyer. I hired one who said he would act for me, but did not. I was then threatened with court action for non-compliance. I turned to Heringtons. They got up to speed on my case very quickly and got us back on track. They took me all the way through the process, including court hearings. It wasn't cheap but it was a lot less than my ex-wife paid for (presumably) similar advice and guidance. They were attentive and sympathetic throughout. Good job.

Natalie's service was amazing

18 months after arriving in Natalie's office full of anxiety, stress and confusion about the divorce process, I am now in a completely different situation thanks to her guidance. Her level head, kind manner and expertise were invaluable in a. fraught time. I never felt she was pushing me in any way and actively worked with me towards the mediation process- she is the opposite of a greedy stereotype of a divorce lawyer. I can recommend her enough.

Settlement Agreed!

Nikki Coward did a very good job in bringing my dispute to a successful conclusion. She was assisted in the latter stages by Beth Reid, also a very good solicitor.
In my experience I found Nikki friendly, helpful but above all very professional, who has a profound knowledge of her subject. I was confident throughout the whole process that I was in good hands.

A great experience at a difficult time.

I needed help to review & reply to communication received from my ex wife’s solicitors. I called Herringtons LLP who assigned Lola Goodwin as my family solicitor. Throughout the time Lola was looking after my case I received great advice and help in doing what was best for me. I was always informed of everything that was going on throughout this time by either Lola or her assistant Stella, both are a credit to Herringtons & I would have no problem recommending her.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Tia Harrison and her exceptional team at Heringtons and I cannot recommend them highly enough. From the moment I walked through their doors, I was met with professionalism, warmth, and a genuine commitment to my case.

Tia Harrison is an outstanding solicitor whose expertise and dedication were instrumental in winning my court case. Her strategic approach, attention to detail, and unwavering support made all the difference. Tia's ability to navigate complex legal matters with ease and confidence is truly impressive.

Moreover, the entire staff at Heringtons deserves recognition. From the receptionists who greeted me with a smile to the trainees who assisted with various aspects of my case, everyone was incredibly helpful and courteous. Their collective effort and teamwork created a supportive environment that made a stressful situation much more manageable.

Thank you, Tia Harrison and the team at Heringtons for your exceptional service and for achieving such a positive outcome for me. I am deeply grateful for your hard work and dedication.

I met with Natalie Taylor-Jones regarding the certification of documents and during our meeting I sought some matrimonial advice on behalf of my sister who was going through a particularly difficult time. Natalie took the time to talk through her options with me and I can’t recommend her highly enough. She was incredibly knowledgeable, and explained the legal process to me in clear terms, and at no extra cost. Natalie provided thoughtful, strategic advice which I was then able to pass on to my sister. If you’re looking for a lawyer who genuinely cares, Natalie is the one to go to.

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.
