Very efficient, but also have a personal touch. My sale/purchase went seamlessly and with a separation I felt like it was someone I knew dealing with me and my circumstances but maintained the level of professionalism. Highly recommend

Title change land registration etc..due to Sepearation

My experience was seamless. Case was complex on my side as I was going through seperation and my Mum was actively dying of Cancer All my contact was done directly with my solicitor who did everything in her power to work in the background only contacting me for information when absolutely necessary. My mum passed during this time and I felt supported and a high level if empathy was given whilst getting the job done timously.

Separation

I found everyone I dealt with to be very helpful and incredibly capable. Towards the end of the process the "other side" decided to put unecessary deadlines in place and it felt like the Gilson Gray team dropped everything else to prioritise my case. Happy.

Sharan at Gilson Gray assisted with a family law matter. Very satisfied with the service - attentive and thorough. I would definitely recommend and use Gilson Gray again for any future legal matters.

Sharan guided me through my child arrangement and financial remedy over 12 months with reassuring expertise, smart legal strategy and kindness. She respected and understood my goals from the start and worked hard to help me achieve them. Divorce and family separation is by far one of the worst experiences a person can go through. Having a lawyer as good as Sharan by your side provides great comfort in a dark time. I have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone else going through a similarly challenging situation.

I recently had the challenging task of regaining access to my child, and PCM Law Firm was instrumental in guiding me through this ordeal. From the start, Sharan and Jessica demonstrated a level of professionalism, empathy, and expertise that made a significant difference in my case. Sharan was incredibly knowledgeable and always took the time to explain complex legal concepts in a way that I could understand. She was patient and answered all my questions, ensuring I felt comfortable with every step of the process. Jessica, who worked alongside Sharan, was just as impressive. She was always prompt with communication and helped to keep me organized and informed throughout the proceedings. Her supportive and reassuring attitude helped me stay calm during a stressful time. Thanks to their dedication and hard work, I was able to regain access to my child. I can't express my gratitude enough for their efforts. If you are in need of a law firm that will genuinely care about your case and work tirelessly for a positive outcome, I highly recommend PCM, with special recognition to Sharan and Jessica for their outstanding service.

I had an excellent experience with Dougal. From the beginning, he was professional, knowledgeable, and always quick to respond to my questions. He made the entire will process simple and stress-free, explaining everything clearly and keeping me informed throughout. I would highly recommend Dougal to anyone looking for a reliable and professional solicitor. Thank you for a great service!

I would highly recommend Gilson Gray, and especially Ellie who guided us through the house selling and buying process. Ellie kept us informed through the whole process, she always replied in a timely manner and if I had any questions or worries (as house selling can be stressful!) she always took the time to explain and help. Thank you so much Ellie, you did a fantastic job and I really appreciate it!!
