I cannot thank Kathy Miller enough for her exceptional support throughout my home-buying journey. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and legal expertise were truly outstanding. As a first-time buyer from China, I had many questions and concerns about the Scottish property system, but Kathy’s deep understanding and experience in supporting Chinese clients made all the difference.
She communicated clearly, responded promptly, and explained every step with patience and care. Her guidance was not only practical but also reassuring, making me feel fully informed and supported at every stage. I genuinely felt I could rely on her knowledge and judgment completely.
Without Kathy, I would not have been able to fulfil my dream of owning a home in Edinburgh. Her dedication, cross-cultural sensitivity, and client-focused approach make her an exceptional solicitor. I wholeheartedly recommend her—especially to Chinese clients—who are looking for someone they can truly trust.
