Outstanding firm with incredible loyalty and care

I cannot recommend Duncan & McConnell Solicitors highly enough. Doug McConnell has represented me across multiple cases since I was 16 years old. Even though I hadn’t required any legal services for 10 years, I called him a month ago regarding a new situation and he remembered me instantly. When my legal aid was unfortunately denied, Doug still stepped up to look after me because of our long history together, and they actually represented me completely for free. Doug represented me at the first hearing. Erin Miller took over to represent me today, and she was absolutely amazing. She called me before court to double-check every detail and completely reassure me. She then handled my pleading with a great outcome and emailed me the result immediately after. To represent me for free when I was stuck shows a level of loyalty and genuine care that is incredibly rare. The whole team are highly professional, well-mannered, and truly dedicated. I would quite literally never use another solicitor.

Court Case

We are so pleased with Dundee Solicitor, Duncan and mcconnell. Douglas represented me regarding a false alligation made by my neighbour. Ultimately we got the outcome we had been hoping for. He was very helpful from start to finish.. Wouldn't go anywhere else, highly recommend this great company. We are so grateful for this outcome after such a long and stressful year. We hope we never fall victim of such nastiness from anyone ever again. Legal fees were reasonable, will definitely use them again if required.

Writing on behalf of a friend

Writing this review on behalf of a friend. David and Callum at Duncan & McConnell Solicitors were professional, discreet, and extremely supportive throughout a very stressful situation. Communication was clear, timely, and reassuring, and the matter was handled with care and expertise from start to finish. This was a case that could have been detrimental to my friend’s job and could easily have been dragged out through the courts. Thanks to David’s expertise, 3 of the 5 charges were dropped, resulting in an excellent outcome for my friend. An outstanding service and highly recommended.

Brilliant solicitors

From my fist phone call I was met with a lovely receptionist who put me at ease straight away. I was amazed at how quickly I was able to speak directly to a solicitor and found the whole experience very easy . Mr McConnell was very easy to talk to and understanding in regards to my situation. He guided me through the whole process and when meeting in person I was made to feel at easy and my nerves soon disappeared. After a few coming and going’s over a few months he managed to have my case dropped completely. I cannot recommend Duncan and McConnell highly enough.

I recently received legal assistance from this firm in relation to a road traffic matter and was extremely impressed with the service throughout. Callum was professional, approachable and highly knowledgeable from the outset. He took the time to explain the process clearly, answered questions promptly and provided reassurance during what was a very stressful period. His preparation and attention to detail inspired confidence at every stage. What stood out most was his ability to combine sound legal advice with genuine understanding and support. I always felt well informed and represented, and the outcome achieved was greatly appreciated. I would have no hesitation in recommending Callum and the wider team to anyone seeking legal representation. Excellent service and professionalism throughout.

Highly Recommended

We required legal support earlier this year for a matter for our child and didn't know where to start. Following some online research it was clear that Duncan & McConnell Solicitors have a wealth of experience in youth justice matters and are highly regarded in this field. From the first phone call to the office we felt reassured that we were going to be supported through the process. In our conversations with Mr McConnell we found him to be calm, reassuring, knowledgeable and supportive. There was a sense of relief following any communications with Mr McConnell as we felt that we were being expertly guided and supported through the next stages, which really helped to provide comfort at an incredibly worrying and uncertain time. Due to overlapping court commitments it was necessary for Mr McConnell to pass our case over to Ms Miller. Although we were nervous at first about the change in representation at such a late stage, we were extremely happy with how Ms Miller built a rapport with our child, made them feel at ease, and made sure they understood the process and their role in it, and looked after their best interests in the moment. We were relieved and happy with the outcome and wouldn't hesitate to contact Douglas and Erin in future should we require legal representation again.

Mr McConnell helped me with a very minor item. I found him to be very professional and helpful. I would certainly recommend and avail myself of his services in the future.
