Wills, Trusts & Probate

Great Service, Good Vibes

Great to finally find a firm that is not just professional in what they do (as so many legal firms in Scotland are) but one where the lawyers don't feel they have to play the role of traditional stuffy lawyer. I'm sure like us, most clients, now want authentic people who will engage with you, yet are still capable of doing the business for you. David White fits this bill to a T. He makes you feel he is invested in whatever service you are looking for and genuinely engages with you to achieve a successful outcome. We also loved the fact that he listened to some of the non legal anxieties and proactively gave us a great recommendation for an financial adviser.

A representative from Harper Macleod Llp responded to this review

Dear Julie, thank you for your positive review. We really appreciate you taking the time to give us feedback and we'll pass on your comments to the team.

PROFESSIONAL EXCELLENCE

Harper Macleod have been my family solicitor since my father died and have been superb to deal with. Their trusts and tax team have been supportive and caring in their dealings with my Mum as she slid into Alzheimer's. Andrea Ross gets a special mention for handling our property conveyancing and has been so helpful, proactive and efficient throughout. Having dealt with property transactions for many years with so many slow solicitors out there - we recommend HM for any such transactions in Scotland - superb service and great team members.

Laura McLean has been an absolute rock

Laura McLean has been my solicitor through an extremely long, difficult divorce and she has been an absolute rock throughout. Always totally focussed on my best interests, but also always mindful of costs, both financial and emotional. I could not have hoped for a better solicitor.
