Exceptional litigation advice!

Unfortunately we found ourselves on the wrong end of a complex breach of contract litigation spanning over 3 years. We had the pleasure of dealing with David Birks of McCormicks solicitors who somehow managed to offer advice which enabled us to achieve a settlement which we didn't think would be remotely possible at some stages of the litigation.
David genuinely cares about has clients best interests and will tell you what you need to hear rather than what you want to hear.
If you ever find yourself in a similar situation you wont regret taking advice from David or McCormicks and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone.
We will definitely be using David and McCormicks in the near future for other matters. Thankyou very much David!

Employment settlement

Not the first time I've used McCormicks and suspect it won't be the last.

The matter arose at a difficult time but was handled efficiently, with skill and expertise resulting in a pragmatic and sensible outcome.

Quality has a price but it is worth paying when the advice delivers.

Top quality advice, responsive and professional service.


Iain is, solution-focused, pragmatic, and a positive thinker. I had the privilege of working with Iain on a complex legal matter, and I am truly impressed by his professionalism, expertise, and dedication to achieving the best possible outcome. We have worked on a variety of cases, from contracts to managing complex HR employee health and performance issues to issues with Professional Enforcement Bodies.

I would like to express my appreciation to McCormick's expertise and tireless efforts, we were able to achieve a favourable outcome that exceeded my expectations. I am grateful for their professionalism, integrity, and unwavering support during a challenging time.
I can wholeheartedly recommend McCormicks to anyone in need of top-notch legal representation. Their exceptional skills, personalised approach, and genuine concern for their clients make them an invaluable asset to any legal matter.

With McCormicks, you won’t go wrong

Employment legal assistance.

Iain Jenkins was recommended to me by a friend, who Iain had done a good job for previously. Lovely bloke, who very quickly tuned into the bad situation I was in, and when push came to shove, he got the result that I needed, during what was a very difficult time for me.

I have been absolutely delighted with the service provided by Katy Maskell-Edwards and her team over the past year which has been an extremely testing experience for everyone relating to both the sale and purchase of property. I am most grateful for all the support and efficiency that I have been offered. Many thanks Katy and team!

Sound advice based on solid experience

Having to consult a solicitor is rarely stress free. Peter Minnikin is sensitive, considered and authoritative. His presentation of options is even handed and clear. Highly recommended.

Outstanding service for my criminal case

I found Peter to be both dynamic and assertive, his knowledge of the law and courts is outstanding.
I truly believe the outcome would have been worse with any other law firm.
The result Peter and McCormicks achieved exceeded my expectations.

House sale / conveyancing

I recently used McCormicks to handle the sale of a house in probate. From the beginning they were clear with their fees, timescales and once an offer had been accepted, for the property, were very prompt in drawing-up contracts and providing the necessary information to both sides. I was kept updated with the progress of the sale throughout and both the exchange and completion was managed without any delays. From my experience I wouldn't have any hesitation in recommending them.
