Legal Work

I requested some legal work to be carried out by Brian Mackenhow and Co Ltd. I was directed to a Mr Sean Gardiner who dealt with my enquiry throughout. Mr Gardiner has been nothing but first class throughout the time it has taken to complete. He has kept me updated on proceedings and has now fully completed the necessary work. In my opinion he has been nothing but professional with everything
Thank you.

Amazing Service, Thanks so much Sean Gardiner! - Property Purchase

I've dealt with a few different property sales/purchases now but this was the first time using Brian Mackenow & Co, Sean was my solicitor here helping me purchase a property that was a little bit not a normal situation so I was a bit worried and Sean just made me at ease and sorted the entire situation perfectly.

I couldn't be more happy with the service I received, I honestly cannot say enough good things about the guy and how much better he made this process, The property pack he put together was very well thoughtout with detailed information, he kept me updated and I was able to contact him and see in person and he really was just amazing I am really happy I have found such a great solicitor for property purchase and sales, I will be using him again for sure!

Thanks! From Seb

Exceptional Service – Best Conveyancer I’ve Ever Used!

I recently purchased a property that required urgent completion within 28 days, and Sean Gardiner at Brian Mackenow & Co Solicitors was an absolute superstar—he completed everything within just 17 days! Having handled 30+ property transactions, I can confidently say Sean is by far the best conveyancer I’ve ever worked with.

What truly sets Sean apart is his responsiveness, knowledge, and professionalism. He was always just a phone call away, incredibly well-versed in his domain, and handled the process with remarkable efficiency. Our transaction turned out to be less complex than initially expected, and in an almost unheard-of display of integrity, Sean proactively reduced the completion balance to reflect this—how often do you see that in today’s world?

If you’re looking for a credible, honest, and highly skilled conveyancer who gets things done with speed and professionalism, look no further than Sean Gardiner. Highly recommended!

Brian Mackenow & Co Limited - Sean Gardiner

Handled my conveyancing matter in a timely and professional manner, despite the lack of timely responses from the seller and letting agents.

Would definitely recommend and intend to use again.

Many thanks to Sean Gardiner for dealing with the conveyancing on our house sale and purchase. Sean kept us fully informed and was proactive during the entire process. We are currently working with Sean on a further conveyancing matter and will use again in the future. We also felt the price was fair and good value.
