Dispute Resolution

I have had the pleasure of working with Liz on several complex property purchases, including overseas based companies and legal opinions, commercial leases analysis, building contracts assignments and collateral warranties. On each occasion, Liz has acted promptly, kept me appraised of the progress and demonstrated excellent commercial awareness and professionalism in dealing with client’s solicitors, in order to meet tight completion deadlines. I have no hesitation in recommending Liz for all property related legal matters.

I also would like to specifically recognise Rachel Duncan, Partner Real Estate, for her outstanding support. Her expertise in real estate, particularly within the housing sector, has been exceptional. She provided clear, pragmatic advice on a complex matter, helping us navigate potential disputes and avoid unnecessary costs.....Her practical, solution-focused approach, combined with her responsiveness and professionalism, made a significant difference. She is a real asset to the firm.

The property team have been diligent, timely and highly responsive. This has allowed us to focus on our developments knowing that the matter is in capable hands.

I am delighted with the level of service and advice I got from Rachel. I felt in a safe pair of hands which took the stress out of negotiating the lease with our new landlord. It allowed me to focus on the fit out of our larger office.

She has always been extremely knowledgeable and professional, providing fantastic support and skill across all property transactions.

Thanks for all your help with the finalising the renewal lease for our tenant company in Ottershaw. You ensured that the process went smoothly and we were able to discuss various aspects of the renewal and decide which factors were relevant to this transaction and which ones were optional.

We used Herrington Carmichael to assist with a neighbour dispute regarding trespassing. With Daniel’s support, we were able to achieve our desired outcome in a timely manner. Daniel was approachable, clear in his communication and instructions, and provided us with well-informed advice on the best options for resolution. All communication was transparent, and any costs incurred were clearly explained in advance before work was undertaken. We would not hesitate to use Herrington Carmichael again for any future legal services and would definitely recommend them to others.

Professional, informative and would recommend.

Thank you so much, Thomas, for your hard work, persistence and patience throughout the process of getting the required documentation over the line by the deadline. It certainly was a challenging and frustrating time with quite a few obstacles thrown in our way, but your determination got us there.

I would love to start by saying our experience with Herrington Carmichael has been amazing from start to finish, and I would highly recommend the firm. Thomas Joucan was absolutely brilliant, and I couldn’t be any happier with his professionalism and absolute integrity, with such speedy replies and getting all aspects of our purchase and sale tied in seamlessly. Without doubt a brilliant, honest and professional solicitor with a big future ahead.

Tim Hardesty is our residential development lawyer. He is a good lawyer and has offered very sound advice. He is able to provide advice on land purchasing, planning, SDLT and issues that impact on the land buying process. What I like about Tim is that he doesn’t use legal jargon and has a common-sense approach to land buying. He is proactive in getting deals done and, importantly from my perspective, doesn’t hold deals up over unimportant legal points. He is also very personable, and well known and liked by other professionals.

We've had a great experience with Herrington Carmichael when buying our first house! All of this was completely new to us and they made sure the process was smooth and easy! Lisa has been amazing and was a recommendation from some other family members who have used her in the past. Thanks again.

I have thoroughly enjoyed working with you. Your professional advice, responsiveness and straightforward approach have been invaluable.

From our very first interaction, they made me feel valued and understood my needs. Their professionalism and attention to detail were evident in every step of the process. The team was always available to answer my questions and provided clear explanations of the legal jargon, which made everything much more manageable. They navigated the complexities of my purchase with such skill and care, ensuring that I was informed and comfortable at every stage. It was clear that they were committed to achieving the quick turn around from agreement to completion, and their hard work truly made a difference. I could not have asked for a better solicitors in what could have been a stressful experience. I highly recommend Herrington Carmichael to anyone in need of legal services. Their dedication and proficiency are unparalleled, and I am incredibly thankful for the support they provided. Thank you for making this journey so positive!

It was a pleasure working with Liz and Hannah on this transaction, securing crucial funding for an iconic hotel in South Devon. The communication and commercial guidance from Liz, Hannah and the wider Herrington Carmichael team was first rate throughout. I would not hesitate in recommending them for future transactions and look forward to working with the team again soon.

Dealing with Hannah was very easy. She was very helpful and professional.

Absolutely spot on - well done. I cannot be more thankful to all of you for being extremely helpful and professional right from day one. Special thanks to Hannah for getting everything sorted out at the last minute. Thank you for the excellent service and helping us out at every stage of our first house purchase.

I'd like to thank Liz and the team for all their support in helping the Chartwell Group successfully complete the transaction. We really appreciated their guidance and look forward to working with them again in the future.

Jamie and Hannah made a complicated BTL sale as easy as possible, pushing back hard against a challenging solicitor and ensuring the right result was had as speedily as possible. Both were incredibly informative and I didn’t once have a concern for communication. I would highly recommend them both and thank them again!

I have been very impressed both with Claire’s professionalism and her friendly and responsive manner.

The phrase “outstanding service” is not one I use often, but I have to hand it to you, yet another seamless property transaction completed. Thank you!

Very many thanks for the prompt and efficient way you dealt with all three [plot] sales.
