Smooth and efficient property sale

Sean Gardiner acted on my bahalf on a recent property sale. From day one all communications were clear and concise and the sale progressed smoothly and quickly as a consequence. I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Sean for any such work in the future.

Excellent experience - I highly recommend Sean Gardiner

I recently used Sean Gardiner from Brian Mackendow & Co for the purchase of my first home, and I couldn't be happier with the service I received. Sean was thorough, highly organised, and consistently prompt in responding to a wide range of queries. He provided clear, first-class advice throughout the entire process and maintained a professional yet approachable manner at all times.

Whenever I needed to speak with Sean directly, the communication was seamless and efficient, which made the experience much less stressful. I would highly recommend Sean and the team at Brian Mackendow & Co to anyone in need of a reliable and knowledgeable solicitor, and I will certainly look to use their services again in the future.

First Class Service From Start to Finish

I recently had the pleasure of working with Sean Gardiner as my conveyancing solicitor during the purchase of my new home, and I can confidently say that his support and professionalism made the entire process far smoother than I ever expected.

From the very beginning, Sean was incredibly responsive and approachable. He took the time to clearly explain each step of the conveyancing process in a way that was easy to understand, which helped ease the anxiety that naturally comes with buying a property. His attention to detail was second to none, and I always felt reassured knowing that every aspect of the legal side was being handled with care and precision.

What stood out most was Sean’s reliability and calm, professional manner—especially during moments when things became time-sensitive or stressful. He consistently kept me informed and was always quick to respond to any questions or concerns, no matter how minor they may have seemed. It genuinely felt like he had my best interests at heart throughout.

Thanks to Sean’s diligence and expertise, everything was completed on time and with minimal fuss. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone in need of a trustworthy, competent, and highly professional conveyancing solicitor.

Amazing Service, Thanks so much Sean Gardiner! - Property Purchase

I've dealt with a few different property sales/purchases now but this was the first time using Brian Mackenow & Co, Sean was my solicitor here helping me purchase a property that was a little bit not a normal situation so I was a bit worried and Sean just made me at ease and sorted the entire situation perfectly.

I couldn't be more happy with the service I received, I honestly cannot say enough good things about the guy and how much better he made this process, The property pack he put together was very well thoughtout with detailed information, he kept me updated and I was able to contact him and see in person and he really was just amazing I am really happy I have found such a great solicitor for property purchase and sales, I will be using him again for sure!

Thanks! From Seb

Exceptional Service – Best Conveyancer I’ve Ever Used!

I recently purchased a property that required urgent completion within 28 days, and Sean Gardiner at Brian Mackenow & Co Solicitors was an absolute superstar—he completed everything within just 17 days! Having handled 30+ property transactions, I can confidently say Sean is by far the best conveyancer I’ve ever worked with.

What truly sets Sean apart is his responsiveness, knowledge, and professionalism. He was always just a phone call away, incredibly well-versed in his domain, and handled the process with remarkable efficiency. Our transaction turned out to be less complex than initially expected, and in an almost unheard-of display of integrity, Sean proactively reduced the completion balance to reflect this—how often do you see that in today’s world?

If you’re looking for a credible, honest, and highly skilled conveyancer who gets things done with speed and professionalism, look no further than Sean Gardiner. Highly recommended!
