Excellent service!

We used McHale and Co for the sale of our property and couldn’t be more pleased with the service. Luke was brilliant throughout — always keeping us up to date with prompt, clear communication. Everything was handled efficiently and professionally, which really helped reduce the stress of the process. We would highly recommend McHale and Co and will definitely use them again in the future. A huge thank you to the whole team, and especially to Luke!

Outstanding Service and Communication – Highly Recommended!

I had the pleasure of purchasing a property with Luke once again. He is a highly competent solicitor, and communication with him is excellent. I was always kept informed about the stage of the process we were in. I can’t imagine using the services of any other solicitor.

5/5, really!

I registered on this website specifically to leave a positive review for Luke , which speaks to how highly I value his work.

I’ve worked with Luke on two separate property purchases, and he has been exceptional every time. In addition to handling the transactions, he was also my go-to person for advice before making offers—and that happened numerous times.

I was genuinely surprised to learn that, as of early 2025, Luke is still a trainee solicitor. His level of professionalism, efficiency, and attention to detail far exceeds that of many senior solicitors I’ve encountered. He is proactive, highly responsive, and consistently provides clear, well-thought-out advice, no matter the complexity of the situation.

If this is the standard he’s delivering as a trainee, I can only imagine how outstanding he’ll be as a fully qualified solicitor. Highly recommended!

It was a great experience working with Rofaida White and Luke Dykes of McHale and Co during the purchase process of our By-to-Let property.
Their professionalism and guidance were superb from start to finish.

I rarely leave reviews—when I do, it's either because I'm extremely dissatisfied or extremely satisfied with a service. In this case, it's the latter. I had the pleasure of working with Luke Dykes during my property purchase in the UK, and I can’t recommend him enough. He is highly proactive, incredibly responsive, and always on point with his advice. Throughout the process, he provided clear, timely guidance and went above and beyond to navigate challenges. If you need a solicitor who is efficient, knowledgeable, and truly committed to his clients, Luke is the one to go to.

Luke Dykes has been incredibly professional and supportive from start to finish. I worked with him previously on a business trademark matter, which was a straightforward process and handled seamlessly. However, my recent experience was far more challenging. I was in the process of purchasing a commercial property and faced an unexpected hurdle when the seller sadly passed away during the transaction. The situation became even more stressful as the other side was slow and often caused delays, but Luke went above and beyond by chasing them daily on my behalf. Thanks to his persistence and expertise, he made it possible for me to lease the property until probate is completed. Despite the complexity and challenges, Luke was always quick to respond with clear, helpful advice, making the process far more manageable. I truly appreciate his dedication and look forward to working with him again in the future – thank you, Luke!
