Vicky was extremely approachable, compassionate, able to explain things in plain English, and a more than capable mediator. She kept us fully up to date with everything that was needed.
She did everything that was expected in a timely and courteous manner.
A credit to her law firm.

Mr McGarry,
I recently engaged the services of your firm in a matter of personal assistance to Mrs Brenda Harrison, an old lady who was being treated most unfairly by her Landlord and Matthew was appointed to represent us defending a Possession Order.
I am writing to commend Matthew's performance and superb service throughout proceedings and to convey my gratitude for his wonderful, compassionate behaviour towards Mrs Harrison especially, as she was absolutely terrified and stressed on the day of the Hearing.
Matthew is highly professional and conducted himself accordingly throughout, leading to a successful outcome. Please do make sure you give him a pat on the back!
Kind regards,
Jonathan Smith

I would like to take a moment to shout out praise and a massive Thank You to Matthew Sharp of McGarry & Co, who successfully represented my small company against Durham County Council, on a very sensitive and complex housing matter. His professionalism in approach and interactions with me were highly evident from the beginning and throughout the process. His calm approach to dealing with the council and their less than efficient processes gave me confidence and his generosity in meeting me and driving me directly to the council offices on the day, was clearly above and beyond the call of duty. I highly recommend McGarry and Co and specifically Matthew Sharp, for any housing matter you may need support on. Thank You Very Much Matthew!
Regards,
Baz

McGarry & Co Solicitors were recommended by a good friend. We required legal assistance to gain possession of a property. From our initial consultation with Matthew Sharp we received excellent advice. Matthew guided us through the legal process which resulted in a successful repossession. We have continued to use McGarry & Co for other legal services. We are more than happy to recommend.

Michael McGarry is a crook.
He cannot be trusted.
Preys on old vulnerable people so he can take their inheritance.
Treats family members in an applauding manner . At the worst time of your life loosing a loved one he shows only hatred making a difficult situation, 100 times worse .
Please do not use this firm

We are committed to provide our clients with the best quality service we can. That does not mean always telling clients what they want to hear. It means giving sensible and sometimes frank advice. We are committed to the professional principle that we give advice to our clients irrespective of whether that advice is in our interests or not. Our integrity is everything and we consider that a relationship of trust between our clients and ourselves in paramount. We go beyond the role of “lawyers” and retain the traditional role of a trusted adviser. This can mean that we become involved in the family and business lives of clients and are often being the first port of call for honest, impartial advice.
