I instructed mark and his team on 20th May. I was given a full quote at the start so knew exactly what I would be paying at the end.
They were very professional and kept in contact.
Everything when smoothly and I competed on my new house on 1st August.
I definitely recommend them for a house purchase

Beverly was very patient and helpful with navigating the tranfer of equity. Contact was regular and I always felt I knew what was going on in the process and what needed to happen to progress to the next step. I had no issues at all with the service I receive and would use the firm again.

I have completed house move into a new build having sold my previous property though a chain sale. Mark Feely and Lauren managed my purchase and sale processes, and it was a remarkable outcome for me to align the builders demands on exchange and completion dates of sale along side managing the chain proceedings with buyers failing or pulling out of sale. We are now happy moving into our dream home and appreciate the outstanding professional work demonstrated by the team throughout the move.

This was our first time using David Barney & Co and Beverly Davison as our conveyancer. We have been delighted with the service we have received during the sale of our property. Beverly was efficient and attentive to our needs, responding on all enquiries and placing us in the best position to be ready for completion. Fees were as quoted and in line with expectations.

Absolutely amazing company!
I've had Mark Feeley and his team and I couldn't be happier, they have helped me buy my home with me and they made it super easy and understanding.
I was buying on my own with very little support by my side from family but this company has made the process very easy to follow.
I honestly couldn't be happier
I highly reccomend them !

I was always hoping that our experience buying our first house might break the stigma of “it’s one of the most stressful things in life”. Unfortunately, that wasn’t the case. However, Mark had been my knight in shining armour and kept me sane, particularly, throughout the last few weeks to completion.
Mark and his team had been brilliant. They were personable, patient, kind and empathetic. But more importantly, treated us like ordinary people. With my past experience of other solicitors, there was no arrogance at all. Just lovely lovely people.
Mark and his team helped me understand any terms that needed an explanation. Answered any of the 100s of questions I asked clearly.
Right from the beginning, they kept our case moving quickly. Our ID and documentation checks were complete within a week. Our BACs payment was paid and we were ready for the draft contacts within 1 month. There were no delays on their behalf at all. Mark unfortunately experienced an important family matter, but he still prioritised us. That is something you really do not come by anymore.
I knew I had instructed the right team when my granddad told me they used David Barney & Co back in 1968. A company can only last that long when they employ the right people.
In future, I will only ever use Mark and his team. They have gained my loyalty forever!
Thank you so much to you all! I appreciate it so much!!

Great local solicitors to use, our solicitor Aneesa, was professional, friendly, and supportive whilst managing our late mother's estate.
Aneesa provided us with a clear pricing structure, so we knew what to expect when using her service to apply for Grant of Probate.
Aneesa was efficient and always responded quickly with any query we raised. This provided us with the reassurance we needed at a difficult time as executors managing our late mothers' estate.
We would highly recommend David Barney and Co to anyone considering using their services.
