Outstanding care
This review is for a different branch.
We went to Pamela for advice, wow! We had been turned away by previous solicitors and some had been quite rude but not Maxwell solicitors, they were so polite and accommodating we had a phone call from the lovely Pamela who listened to what was important to us, we then arranged to see her in person and she had such a lovely way with our 6 year old daughter it left us with full confidence that not only was she very efficient in her job but she was a kind natured person who genuinely cares about her clients. Whatever the outcome we are grateful!
A representative from Maxwell Hodge Limited responded to this review on 14 April, 2025:
Many thanks for your kind words, Cheryl. Kindness, approachability and friendliness is what we always strive for and it is pleasing to read how well this was achieved during your recent interaction with Pamela. We appreciate your positive feedback and look forward to working with you.

This review is for a different branch.
I recently had the pleasure of working with Ciara Furey on creating a joint will, and I couldn’t be more impressed with her professionalism and expertise. From the initial consultation to the final signing, Ciara was thorough, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable. She took the time to explain the process in detail, addressing all of my concerns with clarity and precision.
What stood out the most was her attention to detail and her ability to make what could have been a complex and overwhelming process feel straightforward and manageable. Ciara’s communication was top-notch throughout, ensuring I was informed every step of the way. She handled all aspects of our joint will with great care, and I now feel confident that everything is in place for the future.
I highly recommend Ciara Furey to anyone seeking expert legal advice and support. Her professionalism and dedication truly set her apart. Thank you, Ciara!
A representative from Maxwell Hodge Limited responded to this review on 14 April, 2025:
Thank you so much for your kind words and detailed feedback, Alicia. We’re delighted to hear that Ciara made the process of creating your Will straightforward. Her attention to detail and dedication to providing excellent communication is exactly what we strive for, and we’re so pleased it made a positive impact. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we’ll be sure to pass on your thanks to Ciara.

Slow to respond and does not appear to be very well organised . The staff are polite when available. It just does not give you any confidence that anything will get completed.

Maxwell Hodge took over five months to complete a very straightforward house purchase and after the first month or so it became very difficult to get updates from them. It was only after telling them that the purchase was going to fall through within the next couple of weeks that suddenly things started to happen.

This is the third time I have used Maxwell Hodge . Although I was very sorry to see Pamela go, the conveyancing assistant I had had the most contact with before, her replacement Demi had been wonderful. Thank you
