Services
We appreciate that buying and selling a home can be challenging. Our property team prides itself on providing a personal service tailored to your needs and really getting to know you. Our staff work as a team on every transaction and this dedication to teamwork means that you will always have someone to speak to about your purchase or sale.
Every family situation is different. The law affects many aspects of family life whether you are living together, committing to a marriage or civil partnership, separating, divorcing, or agreeing arrangements for children. Advice online and from well-meaning family and friends can be confusing. Getting sound legal advice early on will help you understand your options and which solution is right for your circumstances. We have a proven track record of providing sympathetic, practical legal advice tailored to your needs.
Although you do not have to make one by law, if you do have a will it means that your affairs are dealt with in accordance with your instructions. It removes uncertainty for family members at a very difficult time and they know they are acting in accordance with your wishes. Leaving a will can, in the long run, be far cheaper than not having one at all.
A will covers your wishes on death but what happens if you become incapable, either physically or mentally, of taking care of your own affairs while in life? A Power of Attorney is a legal document that authorises someone to act on another's behalf in their affairs, be they private, business or in any other matter, except making a will.

This firm has been outstanding support for everything that I've needed, they are also friendly, efficient and always kept me informed. There was never a worry feeling on the support from them which is just amazing and reassuring. I highly recommend this firm to anyone. I want to say a big Thank you to Lynsey, Angela, Gillian and Connor.

For a number of years now, Beveridge & Kellas have been my Solicitors and no matter what the situation has been, have always dealt with things in a very professional and courteous manner as well as making things as easy and straightforward as possible. Recently I had occasion to use their in-house Estate Agents to sell a property for me and have to say, from start to finish their attention to detail and professionalism was outstanding.
The members of staff who were assigned to help me were Angela Connery and Connor Mclauchlin from sales and John Campbell for all things legal, all of whom continually kept me very well informed of progress, which was made difficult at times due to COVID-19 restrictions but as I have come to know over the years, everything went very well and successfully concluded. If you are looking for experience and professionalism, I would definitely recommend this Solicitor & Estate Agents

After a very messy sale of house with ex partner, which was more complicated due to the house being a 'shared ownership', and difficulties encountered with the other party trying to drag things out and creating many obstacles, the sale of the house has concluded. Both Don and Lynn have been brilliant, explaining and advising the recommended actions to Reach this point and I couldn't be happier with the service they provided. I would highly recommend this firm.

I have no words to say how amazing Lynsey was in handling my divorce and contact arrangements for my kids with their dad! No matter what the other side threw, trying to turn it into a he said she said, Lynsey always put the needs and best interests of my kids first. Got my divorce and residency of my kids and it was all down to her and the amazing firm she works for. Can't thank you enough Lynsey

I have been a criminal lawyer for 25 years and after my marriage broke down I had to find a lawyer for myself. I felt overwhelmed at all the family law issues and having to buy a home for myself and my daughter. I would recommend this firm for giving good advice after listening to me and many thanks to Gillian Conlon and Karen Herd for talking me through all the steps I had to take to get my own home.

Relates to family law. Dealing with my solicitor Don Uttley was fine until I had cause to complain about the bill I received. This was then forwarded on to Lynn Harrison at my request. All I wanted was an apology and a decent explanation, alas this didn't happen. The way in which my complaint was dealt with by Lynn Harrison was quite frankly appalling.
No apology (until I asked for one), no real explanation, just copy correspondence, repetition, no acknowledgement of the inconvenience or stress this had caused me, no real answers to my complaint. It was more "I am correct, you are not" attitude. Considering I've never been through a divorce before I would have thought it vital that every detail, especially regarding fees, would have been verbally explained to me in detail.
It was not, hence why I had cause to complain. Oh and returning my son's birth certificate - damaged! was not the best idea she's ever had. I would not recommend this company unless you have some idea about family law, Legal Aid and additional, apparently hidden fees. (fees that should be explicitly explained up front)!

I've recently used them to help me with a matter of recovering some monies we were owed in and my dealings with Joyce were very professional. After one short meeting and a plan of action drawn up she went straight to work. We had 2 clients due us money and within the week one had paid half their debt and the other had paid in full. So, I'm very happy to recommend Joyce and her team and will use them again if we were ever in this position again.

Excellent experience with this firm. Connor was excellent and very professional. He came to our flat to help us with a valuation and although we didn't use them to sell our flat, We used them as the conveyancing solicitors for the purchase of my new house. John Campbell was our lawyer and he was excellent throughout the whole process. Kept me up-to-date with what was going on and was always professional and helpful. I would thoroughly recommend this firm for purchasing a property.
