Couldn't have asked for more

We were referred to Mike by another solicitor after two previous solicitors were unable to act for us because they weren’t on the panel for our chosen mortgage lender. Initially, MCT also wasn’t on the panel, but in true ‘Mike’ fashion, he took the initiative to get MCT added so he could support us.

From the outset, Mike was incredibly friendly and helpful. He and his team provided regular, timely updates, and remarkably, the entire process—from receiving our mortgage offer to moving into our new home—took just 2.5 months. We had made it clear from the beginning that we needed to complete by a specific date to avoid stamp duty increases, and thanks to Mike and his team’s efficiency, we achieved this with time to spare.

While there were some additional fees that weren’t quoted upfront, a portion of these arose due to the specific property we chose—something MCT couldn’t have anticipated. I’d advise anyone going through the process to set aside a financial buffer to cover any unforeseen costs.

Our friends warned us that buying a house would be the most stressful thing we’d ever do, but with Mike and his team, the process felt effortless. We truly couldn’t be more grateful!

First House Purchase

As first-time homebuyers, we found MCT Solicitors extremely helpful throughout the entire process. From the beginning, they clearly explained each stage of buying a house, which gave us confidence and a better understanding of what to expect. Their communication was excellent, and we always received updates on interactions with the seller’s solicitors on the same day. The house report was also very well-prepared, containing all the necessary details in a structured and easy-to-understand format. Whenever we had questions or needed assistance, their responses to our emails were quick and efficient, which made the process smoother.

One area where we believe there is room for improvement is the exchange of contracts. We had agreed on a specific date and completed everything on our side, but the process took longer than expected for reasons that were not clearly explained to us. This led to multiple calls from the estate agency asking for updates, which became frustrating since we did not have clear information to provide. Better communication at this stage would have made the experience even better.

Aside from this, the overall service was excellent. The goodie bag we received after the purchase was a lovely and unexpected touch, showing great attention to customer care. We are very happy with MCT Solicitors and will definitely consider using their services again, not only for property-related matters but for any legal assistance we may need in the future.

Conveyancing with clarity & efficiency

Claire Richardson at MCT Solicitors took care of the conveyancing on the sale of my late father’s home. Claire was clear and efficient when liasing with me; she was prompt when responding to other solicitors in the chain. The experience was stress free and very easy. I can recommend Claire wholeheartedly.

Exceptional service by exceptional people

Late last year, we were looking for a solicitor to look after our (standalone) garage sale, house sale and new purchase. I spent a long time researching our options and getting quotes. Initially, we were leaning towards an online company as they came in around £400 cheaper than MCT*. However, after reading MCT's reviews and talking with their director, Mike, we made the decision to instruct MCT - and it was the best decision we made!

MCT are so far from stereotypical solicitors - their office is inviting and friendly and they have an open door policy for any queries etc. Kaitlin and Mike looked after us and were so approachable, knowledgeable and friendly. They always replied to my (numerous) e-mails and never made me feel silly for asking questions. Our purchase had a delay due to Land Registry but MCT tried all they could to get everything resolved. Impressively, once complete, the bill for MCT's fees came to the exact price they quoted upon my initial enquiry - I can't imagine the same can be said for the majority of solicitor firms (and I can only imagine the 'extras' we would have been charged for if we went for the online company).

We've been so, so impressed with MCT. I have, and will continue to, recommend them to everyone. Mike and Kaitlin, thank you so much. Katie and Luke.

*Amazingly, MCT's initial quote came in significantly cheaper than a lot of other local firms (who don't boost anywhere near the positive reviews MCT have).

Professional and friendly service for our sale and purchase

We were referred MCT solicitors from friends owing to their great experience of their conveyencing journey with them. We are very glad we did as we found them to be very professional, friendly and helpful even when our chain became challenging. Our solicitor was Claire Richardson who was great, helping us understand each step of the process and offering advice and guidance as we made our way journey to completion. She was easily contactable, very friendly and always worked with our best interests in mind. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this firm to friends and family.

First class from start to finish

My wife and I instructed MCT for the process of purchasing our property. MCT were amazing from start to finish. Michael always kept us up to date with the process and made our move straight forward. Every time we spoke to the office, they were very friendly and knowledgeable. I cannot thank MCT enough and would always use in the future and recommend to everyone.

I am writing to express my profound satisfaction with the services rendered by MCT Solicitors. After an unsuccessful three-month engagement with another firm, which ultimately declined to proceed with our case, we discovered MCT Solicitors through a search on Google Maps.

I must commend MCT Solicitors for their exceptional efficiency and expertise. They successfully completed our work in a remarkably shorter timeframe than their predecessors. Therefore, I wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone in need of legal assistance and intend to utilize their services again in the future.
Thank you so much for your help again

We recently used MCT to purchase our property in Eastbourne and would highly recommend their services. Very professional, attentive and friendly, got the job done in a short time, considering I had difficulty communicating in English during the purchase process, they were very helpful and understanding. A huge thank you to Michael and the entire MCT team!

I'd like to thank Nicola ( and Aaron ) for their help in the recent sale of my Mother's
property. Communication was very good and I was kept up to date with how things were progressing, any queries I had were dealt with promptly. Nicola was also proactive in resolving some issues I had with Powers Of Attorney and provided good support and advice. As I live at the other end of the country, I only managed one `face to face` meeting and was impressed with the warm welcome I received in the office. I can thoroughly recommend MCT solicitors and would certainly use them again.
