Fantastic help and support

"I cannot thank Lindsey enough for her professionalism, empathy, and support throughout what was an extremely difficult time for me. Lindsey demonstrated not only a deep understanding of a family law but also a genuine compassion that made the entire process feel much more manageable."

Very satisfied with the professional service given, treated with care and consideration. Absolutely satisfied with the speed of completion bearing in mind the relative degree of urgency, but slightly disappointed in the cost, which for a very simple will worked out at £10 per line, but overall comfortable with the result.

Exceptional Service and Professional Support

I would like to take the opportunity to express my sincere appreciation for the exceptional service I received from my solicitor. From the outset, their professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to my case were evident. They demonstrated a clear and thorough understanding of the legal complexities involved, and consistently provided well-structured, strategic advice that gave me confidence at every stage of the process. What stood out most was their responsiveness and dedication. They took the time to explain matters clearly, ensuring I fully understood my position and options, while always remaining approachable and supportive. Despite the pressures of what is clearly a demanding profession, they treated my case with the importance it deserved, which was greatly appreciated given the personal significance involved. Their preparation of documentation was of an extremely high standard, reflecting precision, clarity, and strong legal reasoning. Where amendments were required, these were handled promptly and professionally, demonstrating both flexibility and attention to achieving the best possible outcome. Overall, I found their service to be reliable, diligent, and highly competent. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone seeking strong, professional legal representation. Thank you for your hard work and continued support.

Not enough stars

Fergus was an amazing person who listened and helped bring this accident claim to an end finally. Left previous solicitors absolutely distraught after 5 years of being mucked around and a good friend recommended Fergus after he had acted for him too. He was a great solicitor to have onside His communication was professional but friendly and reassuring. I cant thank him and his team enough. Words cant say what a great solictor he is

Medical Negligence with Nimish Patel

My experience of commencing a Medical Negligence claim is that they are fraught with jeopardy. An expectation of honesty with fairness from all the professionals one is forced to rely upon when undertaking such a process I found to be naïve. We all have loved ones that may one day be in a similar situation requiring the kind of help McHale and Co. unwaveringly gave to me. Nimish Patel together with his team went out of their way to assist me with a successful outcome where others had tried and failed. Correspondence is always answered quickly, even during weekends and evenings. Nimish Patel tracked reports and authors other solicitors had failed to do with the utmost tenacity and attention to detail to ensure a fair outcome. I would recommend Nimish Patel and his team without hesitation.

(Translated by Google) I have nothing against the company itself. However, Mrs. Katarzyna and Mrs. Iwona are a misunderstanding. Out of courtesy, I will not mention their names. They were unable to deliver the documents to the Court on time. They couldn't humanly admit they made a mistake, that they messed something up, or say I'm sorry I didn't take care of it. What's more, they blamed me for the mistake. The costs are astronomical in relation to the work performed which was not delivered to the Court at all. And also threatening to sue the court for delaying payment for worthless work that was not delivered to the court on time. I do not recommend these two ladies with all my heart!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And it was enough to simply say sorry. To wipe away my tears, they reduced my costs by £240, which confirmed that they had messed something up. But the rest of the money is money down the drain. (Original) Do samej firmy nic nie mam. Natomiast Pani Katarzyna I Pani Iwona to jakieś nieporozumienie. Nazwisk przez grzeczność nie wymienię. Nie potrafiły dostarczyć dokumentò do Sądu na czas. Nie potrafiły przyznać się po ludzku do błędu że coŝ zawaliły , powiedzieć przepraszam nie dopilnowałam. Mało tego obwiniały mnie za zaistniałą pomyłkę. Koszty z kosmosu w stosunku do wykonanej pracy która nie była wogóle dostarczona do Sądu. I jeszcze straszenie pozwem do Sądu za opóźnienie płatności za bezwartościową pracẹ która nie została dostarczona na czas do Sądu. Tych dwóch Pań nie polecam z całego serca!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A wystarczyło powiedzieć proste przepraszam. Na otarcie łez obniżyły mi koszty o £240 czym potwierdziły że coś jednak zawaliły. Ale pozostałe pieniążki to pieniądze wyrzucone w błoto.

I would not recommend. Little care or haste was shown when dealing with my terminally ill mother. The advice given in relation to her will was very poor. We sincerely wished we had gone with a different firm.

We are surprised and concerned about this review, as we have not had any complaints of this nature ever being raised with us directly, by any of our clients. Our team is committed to offering the highest level of service to all clients, so it would be appreciated if you could contact our Relationship Manager, Luke Spilsbury on luke.spilsbury@mchaleandco.co.uk and provide some specific details about who you are and your complaint.

Bike accident resolved

McHale & Co were recommended to me as they have a specialist section dealing with motor cycle/bicycle cases. The matter took about 6 months to resolve. I felt that that my representative (Fergus Delgarno) fully understood the case and kept me updated regularly. I had originally intended to deal with the other party's insurers myself but I'm glad I didn't. The eventual outcome was very positive and any contact with McHale & Co staff and their representatives always left me assured that they had my best interests at heart throughout the process. Very thorough and professional.

Life changing motorbike accident

After using a differant law practice for just under 2 yrs starting in july of 2021 and being told false information and none truths !! I found fergus and what a differance withing 7 months fergus secured me a £5000 interim payment that i needed to pay for my mothers funeral fergus has since kept me up to date each week and even at my times of desperation taken my calls and spoke to me . Making everything clear and finally after a 5 year battle fergus and his appointed barrister have got my case to court for a two day trial and have won my case . I would just like to thank fergus and his loyal hard working team for securing my future and doing the impossible and also standing by my side thoughout what was a trumatic trial . Fergus is a man of focus and ambition and stops at nothing to prove his case along with his team .. i will always recommend fergus open heartenly to anyone who has had a motorbike accident as ive never met anyone who works as hard for his clients .. keep up the good work fergus i honestly cannot thank you enough

Outstanding Service – Highly Recommend Fergus and His Team After being involved in a bike accident, my case was handled by Carpenters Solicitors for nearly four years, and unfortunately, they were absolutely awful. At no point during that time did I feel confident that my case would ever be resolved, and I didn’t receive a penny from them. In 2025, I attended the Motorbike Show and happened to come across Fergus at his stand. I explained my situation and who had been dealing with my case. Straight away, he reassured me there wouldn’t be a problem taking it on and getting me the compensation I deserved. If I’m honest, I was sceptical at first after my previous experience. However, true to his word, Fergus got in touch the very next Monday after the show. I provided all the details he needed, and he took it from there. What followed was nothing short of incredible. Within just five months, my case was fully settled and the money was in my bank — yes, five months! Fergus was absolutely fantastic throughout. He kept me informed at every stage, gave clear advice on what I needed to do, and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Him and his team were professional, supportive, and genuinely cared about getting the right outcome. After nearly four years of getting nowhere, Fergus and his team delivered results in just a fraction of the time — truly outstanding. If I ever found myself in a situation like this again, Fergus would be the very first person I’d contact. I can’t recommend him and his team highly enough.

Jess Chappell is highly professional in the provision of advice at the outset of the case regarding handling the remaining section of the application and advice on probate. This continued throughout proceedings. The advice provided was clear and enabled me to feel confident in the route I undertook. I was delighted with the service and the friendliness of the approach. I was kept fully informed and had every confidence in requesting advice. I would recommend Jess for all the above and for its value for money and for the approachable and refreshing response. Definitely would use again if required.

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
