What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Communication stands out as the defining feature of this Peterborough practice, with reviewers repeatedly noting how swiftly enquiries were answered and how clearly each stage was explained. Property work features heavily in the feedback: first-time buyers describe being guided patiently through a purchase, while returning clients report that conveyancing progressed efficiently and that updates arrived without needing to be chased. Instructions covering wills, lasting powers of attorney and family trusts are also described, with praise for the precision of the advice and the safekeeping of signed originals.

Named members of staff, among them Elaine, Katia, Emma, Haleema, Suraj, Yvonne, Emily, Rose and Andrew Hornsby, are credited with responsiveness, warmth towards anxious clients and a readiness to pursue matters on their behalf. An observation shared by more than one reviewer is the willingness to take on complicated instructions, including a proof of funds matter involving cryptoassets that might otherwise have been turned away. More than one account refers to the cost as reasonable for the work involved. Efficiency, kindness and consistent communication from first instruction to completion recur throughout, whether the matter concerns residential property, estate planning or employment advice.

"I am deeply disappointed with the service provided by Hegarty LLP. Throughout the entire process of handling our house sale and inheritance, the communication was consistently terrible.The final straw came with the transfer of our funds. We were told the money was sent via BACS on Friday, but by Wednesday, nothing had arrived. When we pushed for answers, staff claimed they 'didn't know' when it was sent. After refusing to back down, they finally admitted the payment had never even been authorised in their system. They had to rush through a same-day CHAPS transfer to fix their blunder.To leave clients completely in the dark regarding a massive life transaction is highly unprofessional and incredibly stressful. I would not recommend this firm to anyone who values basic competence."

Very friendly and professional law firm. Emma was very understanding and considerate when dealing with my 93 year old fathers LPA.

I received an excellent service from Hegartys during my house sale and purchase. The staff were professional and friendly and assisted me with a potentially stressful process.

This is the first time I have used Hegarty solicitors and they have been great. My case was complex and I’ve not been the easiest client I’m sure to deal with but they communicated well and were quick and efficient and always kind when I was clearly stressed and eager to progress matters. I’d highly recommend you seek out Emily & Rose. Thank you to you both.

I used Martin Banwell to help me draft up a new will and powers of attorney. He was very efficient, approachable and provided me with good advice. My new will and powers of attorney were completed very promptly, I was very happy with the service I received at Hegartys Peterborough for this issue.

Myself and husband had an amazing experience with Hegarty solicitor. We were taken through step by step by Haleema who was amazing, nothing was to much trouble. Seemless from start to end
