Great experience

Although I never met Lynsey in person, she was always available at the end of the phone. She was very professional and efficient and made the whole buying process straightforward and painless. Missives were concluded in less than a month, so I could quickly move into my new property.

Lynsey has been fantastic all the way through the house buying process, very quick to respond and very on the ball and good at explaining anything I wasn't sure about. Any issues were dealt with very quickly and efficiently and Lynsey was a pleasure to deal with. Highly recommended

Family law - made a stressful experience a lot easier

Ralph has been a wonderful person to work with, I’ve been listened to and the information I was given in return set my mind at ease. I had faith in Ralph’s knowledge and experience, he kept me informed throughout the process and gave me info on the possible outcomes and processes. I can’t recommend Ralph enough for family matters

First Class Service

On first meeting Lynne she put me at ease and I found her very approachable. This makes such a difference when you are going through a house sale which is such a stressful experience. I found the team of Lynne and Beth so helpful, supportive and efficient. The whole process went very smoothly and I would have no doubts in recommending their services.

Stress-free solution

Ralph McCran was a blessing finalising my divorce. He explained everything so simply and set out the full process from the very beginning. Matters were resolved promptly and efficiently and I felt in safe hands throughout. I couldn't have asked for a more straightforward, prompt resolution. I only ever dealt with my solicitor direct, which was so refreshing. Would not hesitate to recommend.

Recommended Malcolm Jack & Matheson by a family member and the service was excellent. Being unfamiliar with the buy/sell property process, I was offered fantastic guidance and the whole process could not have went better!

We have used Malcolm Jack & Matheson twice this year for property related legal work, on the recommendation of a lawyer friend.

The service provided by Lynsey was professional, insightful and timely. We will happily use them again.

We had a really positive experience with Malcolm Jack & Matheson dealing with the conveyancing of our sale and the purchase of our new home. Lynsey Pender was excellent throughout, very calm and informative and always on hand to discuss matters / keep us up to date. We would highly recommend MJ&M for a first class, professional service.

Lynsey provided a fantastic service in connection with the purchase of my mum's new home. She always responded to emails promptly and was very efficient in sorting out the issues that arose during the conveyancing process. This is the second time we have used Lynsey and we would have no hesitation in doing so in the future. Highly recommended.
