Fantastic

My partner and I are FTB and Tracy was absolutely fantastic!

She kept us in the loop with everything and got as much advice and help as she could. We weren't kept in the dark at all and Tracy was very approachable and fast at replying to emails if you weren't sure about something.

100% recommend Freelands as staff are all lovely and will go out there way to do anything for you.

The best out there!

I have bought and sold 4 houses in the past 10 years and wouldn’t look past Tracy ODonnell and the team at Freelands in Motherwell. Tracy takes the stress and pressure away and you can trust her to get on with her job. You don’t need to chase her or remind her of anything she’s does it all. I completely trust Tracy and the team and would highly recommend them and have done so to several of my friends who have had the same experience.

Fantastic Friendly Service

Recently my mum and myself had started the process of applying for Guardianship. Caitlin Gilbert was so helpful, friendly and knowledgeable as were all staff. My elderly mum had been so nervous beforehand but Caitlin guided us through everything. Thoroughly recommend Freelands for professional and friendly service.

Don't get misled as I did!

I wasn't told about the £222 per hour charge (£185 plus VAT) for handling my case. Finally paid after receiving threatening letters involving Sheriff Officers! Despite not being shown (or signing) a contract, any terms of business, any indication of what the costs would be and refusing to show me evidence of their work undertaken...I was instructed to pay over £1,200 2 years after my initial appointment! With a home and family to protect, what choice had I? I was misled throughout and dealt with unfairly...don't make the same mistake I made!

Excellent Service with prompt outcome

My Conveyancing & Executry Paralegal Wendy McTeir was both professional and communicative throughout! I always felt she had my best interests and dealt with my house sale promptly and expertly. I would not hesitate to use her services again in the future.

Excellent service

The service received from Freelands was second to none with Tracy O'Donnell going above and beyond to ensure any stress and delays associated with the buying and selling process were dealt with efficiently. There were a number of curve balls thrown at Tracy, none of which phased her. I particularly appreciated the fact that communication was excellent - Tracy would reply to emails quickly and always provide what updates she could so that you were never kept in the dark. I would highly recommend Freelands and in particular Tracy if you want someone friendly you can rely on.

Review of Wendy McTeir at Freelands Solicitors: A Stellar Experience!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Wendy McTeir from Freelands Solicitors while navigating the complex process of buying and selling property simultaneously. Let me tell you, I couldn’t have done it without her expertise! From our very first interaction, Wendy showcased an impressive depth of knowledge about property law and the intricacies involved in concurrent transactions. Her ability to explain complicated terms in a straightforward manner made me feel at ease, which is so important during what can be a stressful time. She was always available to answer my questions, no matter how trivial they may have seemed, and her responsiveness truly set her apart.

Wendy's attention to detail was exceptional. She meticulously handled all the paperwork and ensured that every aspect of both transactions was managed seamlessly. This level of organization not only saved me time but also provided me with peace of mind knowing that everything was in capable hands. The quality of service I received was top-notch, and I genuinely felt like a valued client throughout the entire process. In terms of value, I found Wendy's services to be reasonably priced given the level of expertise and support she provided. The investment was undoubtedly worth it for the smooth experience I had.

If you’re considering buying and selling property at the same time, I wholeheartedly recommend reaching out to Wendy McTeir at Freelands Solicitors. Her professionalism, dedication, and genuine care for her clients make her the best solicitor for this type of transaction. I would rate my experience a solid 10/10! You won’t regret choosing her for your property needs—she’s simply fantastic!
