Home visits can also be arranged. Each of our practice areas is headed by a partner leading a team of highly trained solicitors, legal executives and support staff.
The firm's origins go back to 1834 when our premises in Saffron Walden were first used as a Solicitor's practice. With such a long and established reputation to live up to, everyone at Adams Harrison is fully committed to putting their expertise and experience at your disposal. In 1834 Joseph Collin rented number 16 Church Street in Saffron Walden and began practising as a Solicitor.

Excellent Professional Service
This solicitors’ practice was approached for help just three days before Christmas. I was greatly impressed with the prompt, kind, sympathetic, professional response and service which resulted.
From the initial telephone communication and interaction with the friendly personal assistant, to the thorough knowledgeable advice of the solicitor, Jennifer who ensured the best possible outcome on my behalf.
Sincere appreciation is extended to this law practice for your passionate, caring, and brilliant work which was provided at a reasonable cost.

Could have cost another 2k if id stayed with them which would have been totally unnecessary, lack of knowledge when it comes to selling a house in 2 names where power of attorney is involved, was told i needed court of protection which was totally incorrect, causing unnecessary delays and stress. Fortunately suspected i was given incorrect information and with better advice went elsewhere which proved correct thing to do, Even court of protection said i didn't need them so no excuse for incompetence or after extra money?? look elsewhere .

Tracy and Michelle were absolutely fantastic dealing with a house sale and purchase for us recently(despite it being quite a tricky transaction!). They were always on the ball, extremely organised and kept us updated all the way along. I would very highly recommend them as being by far the best in Haverhill. Thank you so much!
