⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I recently had the pleasure of working with Ciara Furey on creating a joint will, and I couldn’t be more impressed with her professionalism and expertise. From the initial consultation to the final signing, Ciara was thorough, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable. She took the time to explain the process in detail, addressing all of my concerns with clarity and precision.

What stood out the most was her attention to detail and her ability to make what could have been a complex and overwhelming process feel straightforward and manageable. Ciara’s communication was top-notch throughout, ensuring I was informed every step of the way. She handled all aspects of our joint will with great care, and I now feel confident that everything is in place for the future.

I highly recommend Ciara Furey to anyone seeking expert legal advice and support. Her professionalism and dedication truly set her apart. Thank you, Ciara!

Claire supported by Rachael at Maxwell Hodge proved to be a good choice of solicitor to see us through the complicated house sale process. The conveyancing, although somewhat delayed by the purchaser, was managed very efficiently and communication was excellent. Thanks to them for their good advice and support throughout.

Property sale.

Maxwell Hodge have been our solicitors for many years, most recently acting in the sale of our property, which was dealt with by Claire and Rachael, who was our main point of contact throughout the process. She was pleasant and helpful and arranged for us to meet at the Formby office, which was most convenient.
Thank you both.

Wouldn’t trust this company as far as you could throw them, taking additional fees with no prior acknowledgment, entitled, ignorant, and quite frankly a useless company. Our family wishes we dealt with the estate alone after the dealings with Maxwell Hodge.
