Used these a few time with no issues, but this last time used Luke hill to purchase a property I didn't require a mortgage and the seller used the same solicitors it took twice as long as it would I'd I would of needed a mortgage. the figure I had to pay was wrong and they forgot to add the stamp duty to the total figure, meaning I had to go into my bank 3 times to sort it out. difficult at the best of times but obviously more difficult when there is a pandemic. the staff at nyland and Beattie are great. but the solicitor I used was an arrogant so and so. very poor

I have used Shabnam for several years and she has always provided an exceptional service. Having worked in the real estate industry for several years and dealing with numerous solicitors over the years, Shabnam ranks at the top of the list! She literally works around the clock and provides updates regularly and always completes all matters very quickly and efficiently. Nyland and Beattie have a true gem of a solicitor in Shabnam.

We used Staci at Nyland and Beattie for a recent property transaction. She was extremely responsive and managed to complete the process quickly. She communicated well at each stage, is extremely knowledgeable in her field and answered the many questions we had. We found them to be competitively priced with upfront fees and no hidden charges. I would highly recommend their services.
