We were delighted with the service provided by Will and the Harper Macleod team. From the very start of putting our property on the market, through to concluding the purchase of our new home, the team kept in constant contact with updates on progress and answered any questions we had quickly and in detail. We can’t thank them enough for the help and will would defiantly use them again in the future.

Fantastic Service

I used Harper & MacLeod, to sell a property in Inverness, I can honesty say from first contact they have been absolutely brilliant. Their communicated with me when required, they were professional and handled everything with the sale, including viewings etc. As I love a good bit away from Inverness, because they handled everything I didn't have to travel there for any reason. Absolutely Fantastic Service.

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.

We contacted Harper Macleod after our father passed away, as his will was held by them. A meeting was arranged quickly and we were advised of what we needed to do and how to do it. All said in ‘normal’ language and not ‘legal’ words. Once the probate was granted, we put his house up for sale, and used Harper Macleod as well, and we were transferred to the Estate Agency section. This was also well organised and quickly dealt with. Again we were spoken to with clarity and we understood all what was happening and what we needed to do. All in all, through a tense family time, we had no worries at all with regard to the legal side of things. I would totally recommend Harper Macleod to anyone who wishes the complicated things to be made much easier and understandable. Thank you so much to all the staff we dealt with.

Was quoted 10+k to assist with a legal transaction, then learned my friend was quoted 3.5k for the same transaction! When I asked them to clarify the difference, they said they'll tell me if I agree the 10k. deal? Bizarre and amateur practices here and wildly unprofessional responses.

We have used the services of Harper Macleod in Inverness for many property transactions. They have always been excellent. Our most recent transaction, that closed today, was carried out by Callie MacKay. Callie was excellent - highly responsive, authoritative and a good communicator. Once again, we are delighted!
