Testimonials

I used Harper Macleod when buying my house this April 2026. The conveyancing team and estate agents were fabulous, particularly Samantha, who did the conveyancing. She acted quickly to secure the property for me and kept me fully informed of the progress throughout the purchase. She explained everything to me at each stage and made sure I was happy before moving on. I was confident in her expertise. She was friendly and ready to listen to my concerns and worries, guiding me professionally through the whole process. I would not hesitate to recommend the company.

Susan was very helpful and kept us well informed of proceedings. Always very friendly to talk to and very quick in getting back about any questions asked.

I would highly recommend Harper Macleod LLP in Elgin. I used the company for conveyancing, and the process was smooth and efficient. I was kept in the loop throughout the process and kept well informed. I would use Harper Macleod LLP again in the future.

Shannon was extremely supportive and provided all the required information and guidance for the collection of data to ensure our property details had no significant omissions, and was proactive in providing quick and effective solutions. Thank you HM for sticking with the process and providing us with a workable solution.

It has been an absolute pleasure having Shannon Webster as my paralegal during the sale of my property. She was so patient, professional, and kind throughout the whole process. A real asset to Harper Macleod. Thank you so much, Shannon.

I recently used Harper Macleod, Elgin, for a conveyancing matter. Will Davidson was the fee earner dealing with the process — he was extremely helpful and pleasant to deal with. Will concluded the sale quickly and efficiently, and I was treated in a very professional, kind, and courteous manner. Not being in Scotland meant Will had to explain the vagaries of Scottish conveyancing; he was patient and informative. I fully recommend him.

Having just used Harper Macleod to sell a property, they provided a great service, keeping us up to date and ensuring the whole process progressed from start to completion extremely smoothly. They acted professionally at all times.

Great, friendly, and very efficient service from start to finish on the sale of our house. Would recommend to anyone and definitely use again. Thanks very much for the excellent service.

Having heard many horror stories about moving home and awful solicitors, I wasn’t expecting much. However, Harper Macleod LLP were a pleasure to deal with. In particular, the paralegal Shannon was very professional, communicating effortlessly with both me and my wife. She coordinated with the lender and the seller’s solicitor so well that we viewed the house on 17 December and moved in on 17 February. 10/10 for Shannon.

Our solicitor was very helpful, attentive, and chased things up for us straight away. Would definitely recommend to others looking to buy a property.

The people I dealt with at Harper Macleod, when selling my house and updating my will, were very helpful and efficient. Thank you.

I recently used Harper Macleod for the purchase of my new home, which came with more than its fair share of complications, and I couldn’t be happier with the service I received. Throughout the entire process, they were professional, thorough, and incredibly patient. Despite unexpected issues arising, Shannon and Nicola kept me fully informed, explained everything clearly, and dealt with each hurdle efficiently. Their communication was excellent, and I always felt confident that matters were being handled with care and expertise. What could have been a very stressful experience was made so much easier thanks to their dedication and attention to detail. I’m genuinely grateful for all their hard work and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and supportive solicitor for a property purchase — especially one with complications.

I had an excellent experience. Will Davidson in the Elgin office was responsive, had great attention to detail, was extremely helpful, and ensured that both the sale of our previous property and the purchase of our new property went through seamlessly.

This is the third time we have moved with HM. Every time they have been great – really friendly and efficient. The sales team have an excellent knowledge of the local market and seem to be able to find buyers really quickly – well, that’s our experience anyway. The legal team are very good at keeping us informed and explaining the legal jargon very simply. Overall, a great service that I would use again in the future if moving back to the Elgin area.

Will Davidson dealt with the sale of our late mother’s house very efficiently. His replies and responses to any telephone or email queries were very timely and accurate.

All of the staff—from taking photographs of my property and putting it up for sale right through to actually selling the property and handing over my keys—were extremely competent and friendly. They were approachable and took a lot of stress off me, as I felt I was able to contact or communicate with someone whenever I required. Susan, who acted on my behalf, kept in contact with me, and I felt valued as a client and always informed.

We were delighted with the service provided by Will and the Harper Macleod team. From the very start of putting our property on the market through to concluding the purchase of our new home, the team kept in constant contact with updates on progress and answered any questions we had quickly and in detail.

Our experience with both selling and buying our house with Shannon Webster in the Elgin branch was excellent. She was very professional, pleasant, and caring. It was an absolute delight to correspond with her! Thank you so much, Shannon.

Fantastic service. Will was extremely calming, especially as I was acting as power of attorney for my mum who has dementia. Will helped me so much with the whole process—very informative, very quick at responding and generally made the whole process as easy and stress‑free as possible. I would highly recommend and will definitely be using them again in the future when needed.

I have just moved into my dream new property after a crazy experience with the sale and purchase of my previous property. My solicitor, Will, was unbelievable to deal with throughout the whole process. He was professional, informative, and knowledgeable. Long story short, there was a last‑minute mistake made by another member of the purchase chain. Will was brilliant throughout the chaos of the move‑in date being delayed, through no fault of his. In fact, he could not have been in a better position for the original date, as he had funds and paperwork ready to go. However, things didn’t pan out for that date, and Will did everything he could to get funds returned to the lender and back in his hands for the following Friday. This was not a very likely scenario, but he did everything possible to make it happen. My family and I are now settled in our forever home, and looking back, the whole process was under Will’s control. He kept us informed and calm throughout, and I cannot thank him enough.

Harper Macleod handled both the sale of our previous property and the purchase of our new one. Throughout the sale process, Lisa kept us well informed and demonstrated a strong understanding of the local market - she was a pleasure to deal with.

Thanks to Karen and the sales team for a speedy sale, much quicker than expected with great communication and service. Many thanks to Michelle for all her advice and hard work, even after a gap of five months to the new property purchase we were expertly guided to the end.

Shannon was brilliant from start to finish. From our initial contact through to the completion of the purchase, she was knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. No question was too big or too small. She was incredibly accommodating when scheduling phone calls and meetings, always taking our work commitments into account. Shannon responded to emails promptly and clearly guided us on the information and documents we needed to provide. She was helpful every step of the way. I would highly recommend Shannon at Harper Macleod to anyone buying a new home.

My partner and I have experience purchasing properties and can honestly say that Will has been the best solicitor we’ve had. He was not only responsive but also extremely proactive in getting back to us and updating us, following up with the other side consistently, and walking us through the whole process seamlessly. Even though there were some curveballs with the sale, he helped us navigate everything smoothly and efficiently. We needed to change the completion date last minute as we were waiting for information to come back on the property, and when it finally came through, he finalised everything so quickly! Highly, highly recommend him!
