First class service
My current dealings with Morr and Co, have been first class.
They certainly have a mantra for serving their customers in an informative and friendly method.
Initially I dealt with a kind gentleman called Mel McCrum, who guided me over the process I would be following, which was truly clear.
In the modern world, it was great to see the use of technology for meetings and validation, both of which were seamless.
My main dealings were with person call Emma McLoughlin, who took time to explain a legal document I had to sign, this was all done in a very friendly and professional method. Emma certainly is an expert in her Legal field and treated me with a great deal of humility and respect, quite an attribute I would say in our modern world. Thank you very much Emma.
I would without doubt recommend this company, and will do so…

Employment Advice
I contacted Morr & Co when I was feeling overwhelmed with the changes made to my role following a company takeover. Feeling frustrated and stressed by my situation, the calm and professional way my enquiry was handled and the subsequent advice I received helped me feel confident to deal with my new employers to resolve the situation. Mel went the extra mile when it came to turning things around quickly and I felt very supported.

Mel was Swell
I contacted Morr & Co in relation to an agreement with my employer. They insisted on having a lawyer to protect me, then cost themselves more money by trying to fiddle me.
Mel McCrum took my case and was totally diligent and dealt with the situation in the most professional manner.
I am delighted with the outcome and I’m pleased that I used Morr & Co. Mel was a great advocate and offered me maximum support throughout the action.
I would definitely recommend Morr & Co and in particular Mel with regards to employment matters.
