"We have used our solicitors, Macnabs Perth, several times over the past two years. Very recently, we have sold our bungalow, near Aberuthven, and purchased a flat in Perth. The conveyances were carried out for us by Jacqueline Dow. At all times we were kept informed of progress by email. We found Jacqueline friendly, and approachable, yet thoroughly professional. The final fees/costs were fair and reasonable for the work carried out."

"Our September 2017 house sale in Pitlochry was part of a major change plan as we were relocating back to Warwickshire. Thanks to Jacqueline Dow and Macnabs our sale went smoothly and the funds transferred on time to our solicitors in Stratford-on-Avon, so they could complete our purchase on the agreed date.
We particularly appreciated the initial overview of the process and key issues provided on engagement, and the regular update on progress and queries arising. Good communications are one of our key requirements in dealing with solicitors, and Macnabs were very good in providing us with clear messages/information, and in responding to phone and e-mail traffic."
