Excellent service

"Responsive to emails and phone calls, kept up to date throughout the process and they dealt with obstacles that could have proven detrimental to the purchase. From my conversations over the phone with Georgia and Caroline, they were professional, helpful and most of all genuine good people."

Understanding & Easy

My experience with Paul was the unique blend of professional but personal - I was expecting it to be harder, maybe with me having to make my points clear, but Paul was already ahead of me and in doing so made it very easy, which was a much appreciated relief.

What stood out most was his availability, he responded to emails quickly and picked up the phone, which made a huge difference when I needed answers fast. Beyond his professionalism, Paul is incredibly personable and approachable. He's a genuine person who listens and makes you feel understood. His expertise, combined with his kind and down to earth personality, made the entire process feel less heavy. If you’re looking for a lawyer who is responsive, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with, Paul Quinn is the one!

Great professional people

I had appealed against a decision made by my ex employer for dismissal and they offered me a payout in which i agreed to . Then Paul was involved and got me a little more. In which I was grateful off . It took just two weeks from start to finish which was quicker than Acas. I would use them again but hoping not to loose my job again 😆. Thanks Paul for all your help and advice.

Friendly and Efficient

We had Samantha as our solicitor for our house buying process along with Elisha and Georgia. They were all very informative throughout and helped us stay stress-free by keeping us constantly updated and explaining anything that we weren’t sure about. Every email we sent was responded to promptly and they always acted in our best interests. We would not hesitate to use them for any other house purchases in the future. Thank you so much to Samantha and the team for all your help!

Professional, knowledgeable and proactive throughout

As first time buyers, the house buying process felt overwhelming, but working with Georgia made us feel like we were in completely safe hands. Georgia was efficient right from the start, sending all paperwork promptly and staying way ahead of our completion timeline, which took so much pressure off us. When a sale in the chain unexpectedly fell through just a week before completion, the empathy, care, and support we received was incredible. Georgia helped us navigate a stressful situation with incredible patience and professionalism. Once the sale was back on track, she went above and beyond to put extra safety nets in place to protect our mortgage offer and give us peace of mind. No question was ever too small or silly, and Georgia’s communication kept my anxiety at bay throughout. I couldn't have asked for a better solicitor. Highly, highly recommend!

Winning your case can be everything to you. MBH is that and more. Being a passionate entrepreneur they understand that your legal circumstances are part of your journey. Looking into your needs with the long term view rather than that of a transaction. With this in mind all work they do is carefully curated to make sure winning a case is one of a many benefits you receive in every interaction with their firm. You get and expert guidance in your life's journey.

I used MBH for both the sale of my property and my onward purchase, and unfortunately the experience was extremely disappointing. My purchase should have been relatively straightforward. The property was unoccupied, the sellers were using a fast-track service, and my buyer was a cash buyer who did not require a survey. Despite this, after three months the transaction had still not progressed properly. During that time, searches and enquiries had apparently not even been sent. Communication throughout was appalling. We were repeatedly given mixed and contradictory information. At one point, the fast-track service was informed everything had been completed, yet when I personally asked for an update, I was told enquiries would be sent “next week.” It became completely unclear what the team had actually been doing for months. As a result of the delays and lack of progress, I lost my buyer and my purchase at contract stage. What made matters worse was the way this was communicated. I received an email at the end of the day simply stating that they understood the buyer was no longer interested and asking whether I wished to settle the bill or remarket the property. There was no phone call, no explanation, and no attempt to discuss what had happened. The following day I attempted to call twice without success, only to then receive another email from Heather, my solicitor, requesting documents for enquiries despite the sale apparently already having fallen through. I had to email directly whether my sale had actually collapsed or not. After chasing for a response, Heather eventually called me back and admitted she did not know the email had been sent or that the sale had fallen through or the reason. This was particularly concerning given that both myself and my buyer were using the same firm. In the end, it was only after my estate agent contacted them that we discovered the buyer was now relocating. Overall, the lack of communication, organisation, and awareness is unacceptable. I would not recommend this firm based on my experience.

Thank you for your feedback. However, we do not offer a fast track service so are unable to comment on this. With regards to delays, this is not accepted. As you are aware the buyer pulled out as he was no longer willing to purchase in the Wigan area. We understood that the estate agent had contacted you to discuss this directly, hence us just confirming in writing. With regards to e-mails from Heather, your file had been dictated on by the fee earner with conduct, Caroline prior to the e-mail advising your buyer had pulled out. We apologise for this oversight. If we can be of any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us directly.
