Steven dealt with the recent sale of my flat. I found him to be friendly, approachable and he kept me regularly updated throughout. I would have no hesitation in recommending Steven and MJM. You can be assured of a professional service from the staff at MJM and all with a modern and fresh approach. Thank you.

We used Malcolm Jack & Matheson for our house sale and purchase, and received very professional service from Lynsey Pender throughout the process. She was good at highlighting the material points during the missives process, and happy to have conversations to answer any queries - no additional fees were charged for these calls and they were all considered part of the conveyancing. Overall we were very happy with the service provided. If only all parties' solicitors could have been so responsive!
