We have been clients of Macnabs for many years, whether it be buying/selling homes, preparing Wills etc..... all members of staff have always been very professional and efficient in their work.... I would recommend Alan Roughead who has been working for us recently, he has taken time to give us the best advice.....they're fees are respectfully competitive.

I had the displeasure of dealing with Karen Stevenson today. She continually interrupted me and spoke over the top of me. When I asked her companies complaint procedure she became more abrasive and said she had no idea what it was. Poor service from a reputable firm.

We take feedback like this seriously and are concerned to hear that you did not feel the service you received met your expectations. We are unable to comment on the details of individual matters publicly, but we would welcome the opportunity to look into your concerns further.

Exceptional service and advice from Graham Taylor and the team at Thorntons Law. Graham acted for me for the purchase of a new property in Montrose, everything was dealt with efficiently and with due care from start to finish. Thornton's should be your 'go-to' place for legal work in Scotland. Thank you Graham and your team.
