Great Experience

Brilliant, friendly and efficient service. Happy to answer any question you have (despite the frequency or stupidity of them) - genuinely made the home buying process completely stress free for me so would be delighted to recommend

We have used Lisbeth Ann and her team at ELP for several property transactions. They always deliver a helpful professional service. Communication and advise is consistently helpful and clear. They also offer real value for money. Would recommend them highly. Joan & Douglas Reid

Highly recommended

I've used Lisbeth-Ann and her team for 2 house purchases in the past few years and have been really happy with all the service provided. They are happy to give as much time as required to calls, meetings or any queries you may have. The best bit is Lisbeth-Ann was reactive to any requests, quick to reply to communications, and helped our purchase to proceed in line with our expected timelines.

Clear, comprehensive and efficient property conveyancing

We chose ELP to carry out the conveyancing for the sale of our upper villa in Edinburgh. Legalese and process were comprehensively explained, and we cannot speak highly enough of the responsiveness, flexibility and efficiency of the team during what was obviously a very busy period for them, and they often had to chase up the purchasers' representatives. We have already spread the word amongst friends and former neighbours.

Thank you ELP Arbuthnot McClanachan, especially Laura and Brittany, as well as Catherine for tips on preparation for the sale.

Always prompt to keep you up to speed with what's happening and you can see they have your best interests at heart. Would absolutley recommend the team and they now have a loyal customer for any other legal matters! Thank you everyone at ELP

Highly recommended for service and fairly priced!!

Very happy with the professional and attentive service from Laura, who helped us immensely as first time buyers. Very understanding of our lack of basic knowledge in the house buying process and did a grand job of looking out for us and keeping us informed throughout - Highly recommended!!

I've used ELP for 2 house purchases

I've used ELP for 2 house purchases, one house sale and making my will. They have always been friendly and efficient and explain anything you don't understand. I always felt they had my best interests at heart. Special mention to Catherine, now sadly (for me, not her) retired! Good hand over to Lisbeth-Ann.

Conveyancing

ELP helped me with the process of buying a flat in Edinburgh in April 2022. A very smooth and clear process, even when there were difficulties from the seller's solicitors. Would very much recommend.

Conveyancing.

Conveyancing.
I was assisted by Laura and Brittany to buy a house in Edinburgh in early 2022. Super efficient and switched on team. Explanations of the legal parts were always understandable and responses to queries dealt with quickly.

An absolutely brilliant service from Irene and Sharon, as first time buyers we had no idea what buying entailed and Irene guided us through the whole process. Irene answered all of our questions swiftly and ensured we didn't panic or stress when we had issues with our mortgage. I cannot recommend their service enough.

Excellent Service for a fair fee.

ELP dealt with a change of ownership on a property and title deeds for me. After receiving a number of quotes I received a very responsible fee for work done. Everyone I spoke with replied quickly and walked me through each step as required. I would 100% recommend and reuse their services.

Great service for property

We went with ELP for our home sale and purchase, and they were great - knowledgeable, very helpful, friendly and kept us informed at every stage of the process. This was our first time selling, and they made the process as painless as possible.

A great experience!

This firm (especially Lisbeth-Ann) have been wonderful! I was dealing with a very stressful situation of needing to purchase my first property under extreme pressure and within a very short time frame and this firm were great with me. Explaining things to me, making sure I understood everything and guiding me through the whole process. Plus very reasonable costs compared to other quotes I was given for the same work by other firms. I would highly recommend and will be using ELPAM for any future legal requirements.

I used ELP Arbuthnott McClanachan for convenancying

I used ELP Arbuthnott McClanachan for convenancying and estate agent services when selling my home in Edinburgh recently. They provided a top-notch service and I was very happy with the whole process from start to finish. It was very professional and the staff at ELP communicated clearly and quickly about all the nitty gritty details of marketing the property, arranging a home report, organising viewings, making decisions about offers, and getting all the legal paperwork and contracts concluded in a timely manner. I really appreciated their years of experience as it was my first time selling my home and their knowledge of the Edinburgh property market is extensive and very useful. Would use again if I were living back in Scotland and purchasing or selling a home. Thanks! :)

Duncan McFadzean (Employment Law)

Duncan McFadzean (Employment Law) - Duncan was excellent throughout the process. He was diligent and his communication clear at each stage, which was very reassuring. I was extremely grateful for his advice and it was excellent to have his support. The whole process was very efficient and I would certainly use ELP Arbuthnot McClanachan again.

Duncan McFadzean - employment law

Duncan’s assistance with employment law matters was invaluable. The advice given was professional and at each stage the options available were outlined clearly and considerately. Communications were of a high standard and this helped to ensure progress was smooth and efficient. I would highly recommend Duncan to anyone who requires help or advice on employment law.
