McMillans Solicitors

Joe is a great communicator, as authentic as any human being could be, transparent, knowledgeable, highly skilled, reassuring, and fully invested in you from the first phone call and until as long as you need his ongoing advice and support, irrespective of the complexity of the case, even if it's at the end of the sentencing or even further. You could just follow his lead by trusting his advice and insight, not worrying about the outcome. My advice is also to put in your 100% effort with commitment to change, so that it's a great, productive, joint effort. In times of need, I continue to liaise with him, seeking advice and guidance, and he continues to support me with a reassuring smile as always.

Joe Happe

I cannot overstate the professionalism, clarity, and reassurance provided by Joe Happe, and the barrister he worked closely with, Matthew Dance, during what has been one of the most difficult periods of my life. Facing serious legal charges and the very real possibility of a custodial sentence, I was overwhelmed. Joe was calm, knowledgeable, and utterly committed from the outset. He guided me through every stage of the proceedings—from the initial evidence to the complexities of court appearances—with both strategic insight and human decency. His attention to detail, combined with his understanding of how daunting the process can be, made an enormous difference. Importantly, Joe was also patient and understanding regarding my mental health throughout. He recognised when I was struggling, took the time to explain things clearly and calmly, and never made me feel rushed or dismissed.  Matthew Dance, who Joe brought in as counsel, was equally impressive in court: composed, persuasive, and razor-sharp in his advocacy. Together, they formed a formidable team—professional yet approachable, thorough yet empathetic. Thanks to their diligence and guidance, I was able to navigate a situation that could have gone very differently. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Joe Happe to anyone in need of serious legal representation. He’s the person you want in your corner.

I have been a Forensic Therapist since 2015 and have had many clients that have used MacMillans Solicitors. They have spoken extremely highly of them and found them supportive, reliable and professional. In all of my dealings with them, I have been impressed by their fast response, their compassion towards their clients and attention to detail and excellent advice.

Having worked with McMillans over the past 10 years I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone facing allegations of a sexual nature. I have seen first hand Joanna Life provide her clients with representation of the highest calibre - displaying the perfect combination of sensitivity, tenacity and tactical nous. Case preparation is unparalleled and the firm’s results speak for themselves.

I recently found myself in a spot of bother with the law. Fortunately I found and contacted McMillans Solicitors. From the very first telephone consultation, right the way through to my sentance at Crown Court, Joe was there, offering his expertise and support, whether it be emotional or legal. Whenever I needed a question answering, he was there on the other end of the telephone, night and day. Joe and his team are non-judgemental, honest and they certainly know their area of the law inside and out. If you are staring into the abyss and you've lost all hope... please give Joe a call.

I found Joe Happe and all his staff Jack and Angela to mention a few to be very professional very thorough and not at all judgemental Joe was always at the end of the phone if I had and questions. And on my day in court Joe and Jack went the extra mile for me … Money well spent, I would strongly recommend Mc Millans solicitors if you want to be looked after properly
