Incompetent & uninterested...

Sadly my insurance company instructed Harper MacLeod to deal with losses after an accident where a 3rd party hit my parked vehicle, and admitted liability.

To be honest Harper MacLeod did not really seem interested in my claim from the start - presumably because there was no personal injury claim for them to profit from.

The claim was handled at various times by three different staff - a Paralegal, a Trainee Solicitor and then an Associate. Each completely contradicted the statements made by the one who had gone before. None of them actually seemed to make any progress dealing with my claim, several emails were never even replied to. When I called out the incompetence to the third claim handler it all went quiet...

By the time one of the Partners contacted me to try and discuss my claim, I had already made the decision not to waste any more time or effort at this company, and I ended up going to a more competent law firm. When I started explaining some of the statements made by the case handlers, the lawyer who ended up dealing with my case successfully actually burst out laughing at how unprofessional and blatantly factually incorrect these had been.

I made sure to inform my insurer that my claim experience with them, particularly in relation to Harper MacLeod, was the reason why I moved all three of my vehicles away from their company.

Stress-free and Professional Estate agency and Conveyancing

Karen, Susan and their teams at the Elgin office handled all aspects of the house marketing, sale and conveyancing, swiftly, professionally, without fuss and offering value for money. The house sold in the 1st week! It's been a delight to work with Harper Macleod, as we have done , and will continue to do, with other departments and offices across Scotland. Strongly recommended.

Exceptional Service

Harper MacLeod managed our entire estate process, overseeing property viewings and the sale of our house while we were abroad. They maintained regular communication, updating us on viewings and offers, and navigated the overall sale with professionalism and ease. I highly recommend their services to anyone seeking a comprehensive solution for selling a house, encompassing estate agents to solicitors, with transparent and no hidden costs

Professional and Helpful, Can't fault them

I have been dealing with Harper McLeod for most of this year and it has been really good. Everything I asked was dealt with quickly and professionally and the paralegal dealing with me was extremely helpful and friendly.

I can't recommend them enough and will keep them in mind if I ever need legal help again in the future

Amazing experience

We had Will Davidson as our solicitor and he was amazing, very helpful and got everything sorted out for us quickly and professionally and took all the stress out of the process for us so we cant recommend enough. Anytime we popped into the firm all the other staff we spoke to were lovely, will definitely use again!

Terrible company

The current senior conveyancing partner lost important paperwork. This man has caused me considerable expense loss of time worry etc etc. He is an arrogant self interested jerk.
