Excellent FTB Experience

I was represented by Jeremy Smith at ELP AM for my first time flat purchase. You hear horror stories about dealing with solicitors during a purchase, but Jeremy and ELP were nothing but supportive, informative and proactive. While there were delays, these were never due to them and I was advised of how any changes may affect me as they happened. On top of all that, the pricing was extremely reasonable. If you are looking for a reliable, capable conveyancing solicitor. Look no more.

Great firm to deal with

We have used the services of Duncan McFadzean of this firm twice over the past couple of years for a commercial lease, then assignation of commercial lease. I highly recommend his services, he is hugely knowledgeable, professional, gives great advice and kept me calm under stressful circumstances when things didn’t go exactly to plan with third parties! Would have no hesitation using this firm again for these and other services. Competitive fees and great communication.

Purchase of Property

Got the job done on time and within agreed budget. Beyond sale slow to respond to relevant queries, and, didn't really answer properly. I felt the Solicitor's Technician was a bit challenging in an odd way during purchase nit picking about irrelevant things. This wasn't welcome during what was a stressful period in which I felt I had no guarantee of success - customer service training required I suggest. This is my first and only experience using a Solicitor, so I have nothing to compare the experience to. Okay overall, we got our property.

Outstanding Legal Representation

I am writing this review to express my sincere gratitude and appreciation for the exceptional work carried out by Mr Ian Wells throughout my tribunal case. His dedication, expertise, and unwavering commitment played a pivotal role on my case outcome.From the initial consultation to the final resolution, Mr Wells demonstrated an in-depth understanding of the intricacies of my case. His ability to navigate the complex legal landscape and provide insightful guidance instilled confidence in me from the very beginning. I felt supported and well-informed at every stage of the process.Moreover, my solicitor exhibited a genuine empathy and concern for my well-being throughout the proceedings. This personalized touch not only reassured me during what was undoubtedly a challenging time but also underscored their commitment to client care.I wholeheartedly recommend Mr Wells to anyone seeking outstanding legal representation. Their professionalism, expertise, and genuine concern for clients make them an invaluable asset in navigating legal challenges. I am deeply grateful for the successful resolution of my case and the unwavering support provided by my solicitor.

Clear, comprehensive and efficient property conveyancing

We chose ELP to carry out the conveyancing for the sale of our upper villa in Edinburgh. Legalese and process were comprehensively explained, and we cannot speak highly enough of the responsiveness, flexibility and efficiency of the team during what was obviously a very busy period for them, and they often had to chase up the purchasers' representatives. We have already spread the word amongst friends and former neighbours. Thank you ELP Arbuthnot McClanachan, especially Laura and Brittany, as well as Catherine for tips on preparation for the sale.
