Late Estate

My late mother's estate was being handled by Ms. Sharon Leckie while she was working at another firm. She then moved to Wright, Johnston & Mackenzie Llp. Ms. Leckie has been a pleasure to deal with. She has kept me informed of what was happening as it happened. I would highly recommend her.

Avoid

As someone else stated before Wright, Johnson & McKenzie are diabolical! Stay away, they almost cost me loosing a property I was trying to buy. They have no clue how other European countries legal system work and worse is that they are not willing to learn. They are inexperienced or at least the ones they assigned to my conveyancing were and ask for absurd documents or contacts from 12 years ago when they were provided with legal translations just becasue they thought they know better. Well stay away or you will be delayed. Needless to say no appoligies for the poor service which is more costly than other better solicitors in the area. Avoid at all costs!

Slow, Poor Customer Service, Continual Obfuscation

You'd expect a firm you're paying tens of thousands of pounds to complete a fairly standard(albeit a little different) legal procedure to be transparent, communicative and helpful, but Wright, Johnson & McKenzie have been diabolical.

They have given us literally no useful information regarding what is happening or any idea of a timeframe. They have been appallingly cryptic and obfuscating for the last 5 months since my deceased Mum's house was sold. A close friend who has been in the legal profession for 12 years - who I made aware of what's to be done - said: "they(the lawyers) don't seem very helpful or accomodating".

Don't use this firm if you want transparency, speed of service or helpfulness.

Land Tribunal success

As a farmer this was all a surprise when EE's documents arrived but Liam quickly identified our options and succinctly responded and kept it simple as EE continually didn't accept the facts of the case. After many iterations, the LT ruled 100% in our favour due to the way Liam continued to focus on the key aspects of our position

Personal experience of WJM

From my first contact with the firm my case was handled efficiently and the matter was passed to the most appropriate Lawyer. There was some time pressure to get legal advice and a call to discuss my problem was arranged very quickly. Our contact with the Firm was over a 2 year period. The advice we received was well thought-out, well structured and put in an easy to understand format with options and pro's and con's described of different options. The 2 year period was a roller-coaster of emotions but every email, every teams meeting put us at ease and gave us confidence in our Lawyer and our case. Our Lawyer was methodical, efficient and experienced. All communications were clear and timely and his expectations of us were explicit and easy to understand. The pressure was taken away from us, allowing us just to get on with the day job, in the knowledge that the case was in safe hands. Consideration of costs was also evident with other members of the Firm being brought in to help minimise costs. We always felt that the case was moving forward and that we could contact the Firm at any time and would receive a rapid response.
We have had other work done by the Firm which was also done well. We will be using this Firm going forward for all our Business legal needs.

Calm reassurance

We had encountered a situation that needed to be resolved within a short period of time. We were working with lots of varying information with a partnership contract that was complicated. Liam and WJM kept us informed of all the scenarios that may happen. They worked with us to deliver a satisfying outcome that we were concerned could not have been reached without their guidance. Would recommend again.

No compassion, lacks Empathy and unwilling to talk by telephone

We are a family who has lost two family members during Covid and were looking for Tom Quail to support the family by offering myself as an executor to my late Great Grandmothers will. Tom would not communicate by telephone, only to type up letters and forward them via his secretary. It was explained to him that the process of him declining to be executor and putting this onto my Grandmother, would cause serious health problems. Tom believes an 80 year old who is going for a hip operation and is at a serious risk of Covid is fit to carry out this role. Even with me explaining family would need to visit her home to assist with the role, this doesn't seem to phase WJM and the clear risk of bringing a virus into her home. Let's hope I don't need to make WJM accountable if the worst happens.
