Sarah Coyne (Irwin Mitchell LLC) did a FANTASTIC job for me !

Sarah Coyne (Irwin Mitchell LLC) was not my first choice as the Conveyencing Solicitor I wanted to entrust my conveyancing to ... I tried out a couple of local Essex Conveyancing solicitors first ... but their service appeared to be so lack-lustre and innefficient that I thought ... "there must be someone better !". When I got in touch with Irwin Mitchell, they followed up quickly and I never looked back ! Sarah Coyne was so comfortable and efficient to work with, I was never afraid to ask her the most trivial question or detail, she explained things so patiently ! Dealing with Sarah was like dealing with a family member, she sometimes even replied to my emails outside office hours ! Amazingly, even though "Completion Dates" are supposed to be "Written in stone" and time was short, Easter holidays, cheques to clear, and she was on holiday part of the time, Sarah made sure that that the completion of my bungalow took place on exactly the date Sarah had agreed for completion ! Thank you and well done Sarah Coyne ! I found Irwin Mitchell's professional fees and charges to be quite reasonable and competitive, considering that Irwin Mitchell is a world class firm of Solicitors, and famous too ! Thank you, Mr. Shah

I went with Irwin Mitchell for legal representation at a very sad and emotional time. Maria Harvey, Jessica Wilde and the team, were amazing throughout the claim. I found the overall experience to be highly professional and efficient from the start. They had clear communication and explained step-by-step the process in the best way for me to understand. They made the entire process feel more manageable and trustworthy. What really stood out was the caring and client- focused approach. They just wanted the best professional outcome for me. Overall, I would not hesitate to recommend Irwin Mitchell.

A Voice for My Son and Support for Me

I cannot thank Laura Ellacott (Irwin Mitchell LLP) and their team enough for the support, care, and professionalism they showed me throughout one of the most difficult periods of my life.

My case was deeply personal and emotionally challenging, involving the loss of my son, Lucas. From the very beginning, they treated me with compassion, respect, and understanding, while showing great knowledge and professionalism at every stage of the legal process.

They kept me informed, explained everything clearly, and always made sure I felt heard and supported. I never felt like just another case — they understood that behind the legal matter was a grieving mother seeking answers and accountability.

After more than six years of litigation, they guided me with honesty and sensitivity, helping me reach a resolution that was right for me. Their dedication, patience, and commitment never wavered.

I will always be grateful for the way they helped me fight for Lucas and for the kindness they showed me throughout. I would highly recommend Laura Ellacott to anyone needing not only an excellent solicitor, but someone who genuinely cares.

Road Traffic Accident Claim

Lauren Haas of Irwin Mitchell acted on my behalf following a road traffic accident in which I suffered a severe injury.

Lauren kept me informed at every stage of my claim. She was quick to respond and relay information from the other side and always gave a full explanation at each stage in the process.

Steph Kerr, exceptional Contentious Probate Solicitor

The situation I needed legal help with had some unusual and unpredictable moving parts, so I chose Irwin Mitchell because of their reputation in this field. It became clear from the start what a remarkable solicitor Steph Kerr is: very forthcoming and straightforward with a searing intellect. Steph has repeatedly given time to talk though my concerns and then gone away to reflect and proceeded to whittle down the issues so we could focus on a clear path forward. There is more work to be done on my case, so I will update the review when the situation is resolved. Yet despite much uncharted territory still to navigate I would never have thought we would be in the strong position we are currently in. There are times when I was desperate for the whole thing to move at lightening speed but a thing of this nature needs a steady approach, and there was much painstaking cross checking and consultation with other legal experts in the team - and Steph did that with steely attention to detail while focusing on the bigger picture, for which I am extremely grateful. Steph has been very open in sharing her thoughts and seeking my input as we have inched forward so that I feel very comfortable with the path we have chosen to take. She has also given nuggets of advice above and beyond that have frankly been game changers.

I received outstanding service from Irwin Mitchell throughout my case. I was supported at every stage of the process, and I always felt informed and reassured. The team demonstrated a high level of professionalism, knowledge, and expertise, making what could have been a stressful experience feel much more manageable.

I would especially like to highlight Thyra Simpson, who went above and beyond to ensure my health and wellbeing were not negatively affected. Her care, understanding, and dedication made a real difference to my experience.

The entire team at Irwin Mitchell was excellent. Everything was explained clearly and with great patience, ensuring I fully understood each step of the process. I was treated with the utmost respect and professionalism throughout.

I would highly recommend Irwin Mitchell and would not hesitate to use their services again in the future.

Excellent service throughout

As a family, we have been incredibly happy with the service provided by Irwin Mitchell. From the very beginning, they have exceeded our expectations at every step. Communication has been consistent, clear, and complex legal terms presented in a manner that have been easy to understand throughout.
Anna Stacey, who was appointed to handle our case, has been nothing short of exceptional. She has been our safety net throughout the entire process, protecting us through difficult moments over the years, and always making herself available to answer any questions we had. Her professionalism, compassion, and dedication made a challenging time more bearable – we cannot thank you enough and for the positive outcome you gained for us, any future worries we had have now been alleviated.

Contentious Probate (ongoing)

Irwin Mitchell are in the process of representing me in a case of contentious probate. All the staff that I have dealt with have been friendly, helpful and professional. The principal, Tara McInnes, has "held my hand" all through this horrific process with calm, knowledgable ease. She has kept us focused and me supported.
