Safe yourself the hassle and stress and do not go near these professionals
Very quick to take money off you then mess you about going forward. Will tell you they will get back to you then ignore you for over a month.
Incompetent, unprofessional and downright farcical sums up my experience with HHD.

Matthew Higgins from HHD was amazing. Having had no experience with law firms before I thought I could just contact one that is local to me, but it turns out that not all solicitors are made equal!! When I researched top solicitors in Northern Ireland Matthews name came up, I gave him a ring and I have never been more glad of doing something in my life. He was so efficient, professional and reassuring. If you need a solicitor for anything this firm is for you.

I engaged HHD recently for the sell and purchase of my property. I found the team at HHD courteous and efficient throughout the process. Joanne Higgins was professional at all times and dealing with her was effortless. Queries were dealt with in a competent manner either by telephone or email. A positive experience which ran smoothly in the course of what can be a totally stressful time.

I rang two weeks ago and spoke to Naomi Woods about making a Will. She took my instructions and a draft Will was sent to me for my approval. An appointment was then made with Des Loughrey and both himself and Naomi witnessed my Will. My experience was dealt with in a very courteous professional and welcoming matter and there was no hassle whatsoever. I will certainly recommend them both to my work colleagues and friends ....thank you
