House sale
This is the second time I’ve used Stephanie. The house sale went smoothly and I was kept informed throughout. I appreciate the direct contact and efficient approach. I met Stephanie when I signed on this occasion and it was lovely to meet her in person. The reception staff were also friendly and efficient.

First Class Service
I have worked with McHale ever since I set up my portfolio building business a few years ago. My business relies on getting deals through conveyancing in an accurate and timely manner, so my clients get the best possible service. I use McHale for both my own transactions, and my clients, as I know I will get first class service from Kamil and the rest of the team. They're always responsive and communicative, which is one of the main things I look for in a law firm. I'd happily recommend them to anyone.
A representative from McHale & Co Solicitors responded to this review on 11 August, 2025:
Hi James. Thank you for your continued trust and loyalty over the years. We’re delighted to be part of your business journey and to support both your transactions and your clients’ needs. Providing accurate, timely, and communicative service is always our priority, so it’s fantastic to know that’s what you’ve experienced. We truly value your recommendation and look forward to working with you for many more years to come.

Client Review for Joanne — Property Sale Solicitor
Joanne provided an exceptional service throughout the sale of our property. Her ability to communicate in clear, accessible language made the entire process far less daunting, and we always felt informed and supported at every stage. She kept us consistently updated, handled matters with efficiency, and was an absolute pleasure to deal with. Professional, personable, and highly competent — we couldn’t have asked for better representation. I highly recommend

We had the pleasure of working with Nicole Frankiewicz from McHale & Co during the process of purchasing our home, and we couldn’t be more grateful for her support. Nicole was incredibly helpful, always available to answer our questions, and consistently went above and beyond to assist us.
Her professionalism, patience, and clear communication made a stressful process much easier to navigate. We always felt that she had our best interests at heart and truly cared about helping us every step of the way.
We highly recommend Nicole to anyone looking for a reliable and dedicated solicitor. Thank you, Nicole, for everything you’ve done for us!
