I’ve never written an online review before, but I felt compelled to share my experience after an extremely unpleasant interaction with Bronagh Mc’Partland. Over the years, I’ve worked with many solicitors, and I have never been treated so poorly.

The level of professionalism I encountered was far below what I would expect for the huge fees they charged and the overall experience left me very disappointed. Based on this experience, I would strongly advise others to think carefully before engaging with this company.
