Recent property purchase

We have recently completed on a leasehold property purchase. An unexpected and complex issue arose regarding transfer of ownership of a parking space. This required some “out of the ordinary” legal activity and this was compounded by a a difference of opinion between our solicitor and the sellers solicitor. Our solicitor, Rachael McClean, worked very hard to ensure our best interests were correctly represented and acted upon when it would have been much easier to acquiesce to the seller’s solicitors wishes. Throughout the process Rachael and her colleagues communicated in an effective and timely manner and were very happy to explain the progress and complex issues related to the deed of variation. Thanks to Rachael’s determination the issue was resolved to our satisfaction and we were able to exchange and complete. The staff in the Maghull office were very helpful when it came to document preparation and signatures. Overall we were very happy with the service we received and would have no hesitation in using Rachael and her colleagues for future conveyancing needs.

Estate Administration

A full administration of my late mother's estate was undertaken, firstly by Lawrence Dunne & then by Jessica Flaherty. All enquiries were answered in a prompt, courteous & professional manner at all times, and all advise clear and concise. The staff on the reception decks were excellent on all my dealings with them, and I never had to chase up any emails, correspondence etc as all aspects were dealt with in a timely & sensitive manner. At a difficult time, the service was first class & I only have positive words for all concerned.
