I used mr Craig mckellar from Harper MacLeod, craig was first class from start to finish. He kept me up to date with everything going on & went out of his way to help. Cant thank him enough! If the need should arise again, I would have absolutely no hesitation using Craig.cant recommend him highly enough. Thanks Craig

Please avoid this company - it will involve waiting months for a response and extra added stress. I have waited 2 and a half years since starting my claim and still no further forward. I accepted settlement claim months and months ago and have heard nothing back since then. Constantly having to phone to chase it up and get told every time I will get a call back - never do.

I have sent numerous emails and again no response. No regard for customers who are experiencing a stressful situation. I am not normally one who leaves reviews but I think it is absolutely necessary to warn others so they do not have to experience the same stress I have had to deal with and hopefully now the company will get back to me.

Absolutely useless save your money. Was dealing with these crooks and they didn't keep in touch with me, ended up giving me less than a weeks notice to attend court to be a witness. They couldn't understand the evidence they managed to find, didn't research it or put any time into understanding it. They utterly wasted my time. Stay away from these clowns honestly do yourself a favour. The worst representation you can find.

I saw this firm work from the other side. I took someone to court and they chose Harper and MacLeod to represent them. They where unpleasant, unprofessional, misleading and incorrect on almost every occasion. I represented myself in court twice and won my case so their client had to pay me and god knows how many unnecessary thousands of pounds to them.

This case could have been dealt with quickly over 1 or 2 phone calls. Instead they dragged it out for months and months sending endless amounts of misleading, incorrect and ignorant emails. Every email and court appearance costing their clients serious amount of money. Their client will have no idea how easily this could have been dealt with and how much money they could have saved. Avoid these crooks.

I have been dealing with Jamie Watt from Harper Macleod who has been great with all the advice I was needing to help me. Very professional and listened to my case and always got back to me. Also during a zoom call Jamie introduced me to Graham Horsman who was equally as friendly with amazing knowledge in his chosen field which I was very grateful for so I would have no hesitation in recommending Harper MacLeod after dealing with both of the guys mentioned above. Thanks again.

I would definitely recommend this company. Megan Dunbar has been absolutely fantastic helping me and making a difficult situation for me so much easier. I cannot praise her enough!

Critical: Professionalism This company is a scam man's paradise; they charged me an unreasonable sum of 11,000 pounds just for a letter and their lawyer attended a 30 minutes of meeting, nothing else and gave me an 11, 000 pounds bill that I already paid. I therefore recommend that all of you don't deal with the scam business

Our Start Up Company approached Harper Macleod to help set up company books and receive legal guidance regarding IP. We received guidance from Jo Nisbet and Gemma Sicci who are part of the entrepreneurship team. Their advice has been absolutely fantastic. I cannot recommend their service enough. They were completely transparent throughout the entire process and ensured that the legal documents were explained in full. This is especially impressive given that the entire process was carried out remotely. Looking forward to working with Harper Macleod in the future!

Very professional law firm and property team who acted for us in our recent house sale and house purchase. We couldn’t recommend Property Manager Susan Breen highly enough, in taking us through each step and always being available to answer questions and progress matters through to conclusion quickly and efficiently.

Over the last 7 years I have used Harper and MacLeod services including dealings with my elderly mother. During each consultation I have found them to be professional, tine giving and empathetic towards each of the challenges discussed. I have qualms in recommending their services to family and friends. I would personally like to extend a special thank you to Jacqueline Meikle, Julie Steel and Pamela Niven for their time, patience and expertise during each individual consultation. Many thanks Jack Craig

Stay well away, completely unprofessional unethical company. Phoned and emailed after an initial meeting got no response and then got sent a letter with huge bill for work not requested or discussed with no discussion of price beforehand.

After reading the reviews I am delighted I will not be pursuing my losses with this company. Victoria came on the phone didn't know the facts of the matter at all. The only fact she did know was her fee, then at the end of the call saying "bye-bye" in a sarcastic high voice.like she had won the conversation. Anyone reading this please use Digby Brown they care more about the clients losses, rather than money-making.

Never dealt with a more unprofessional firm. Absolute joke of a place have been trying to purchase a property in Inverness, I have called with questions on the property several times of which they know nothing about yet are supposedly trying to sell it and not once have I had a response when they have all my contact details plus email. Extremely disappointed would not recommend this place for either buying or selling a property complete lack of interest.
